Sounds to be Associated with Specific
Events and Alarms
Sounds can be associated with specific alarms
and events. Before a custom sound can be
associated with an event, it must be activated
here.
Note: By default, your PC's "exclamation" sound will be
associated with alarms that require resolution. This is
set through the Windows control-panel.
Sound Duration
: Sounds to be associated with specific
alarms are played in a repeating pattern. As such, any
sounds lasting longer than 2 seconds will be truncated
(i.e., the first two seconds will be repeated).
File Format: Guardall Director supports standard
Windows sound (WAV) files. Up to 20 different sounds
can be used (system-wide / for all accounts).
Also See: To assign sounds to alarm messages, refer
to "Customizing How Events are Displayed (Event
Priority)".
