Compatibility Vs Dynamic Mode Alarms

The current dynamic mode alarm functionality utilizes the next available incrementing identifier assigned at start-up.

These identifiers will change depending on the cards present in the unit configuration. The compatibility mode setting

allows pre-defined fixed identifiers to be assigned at startup. This in-turn allows the identifier of different units to be

tracked through the external control system consistently
