1.5.1.4 System Integrity Indicator Reference
The system integrity indicator, located on the Summary bar [➙ 23], indicates the
network connection and system status. Its color and animation reflect the
connection status, as follows:
Green and animated
Network connection with the server is active and the
system is healthy (that is, server running properly).
Red and animated
Network connection with the server is active but at least
one system component is not active on the server (that
is, server not running properly).
NOTE: If a client disconnects form the server, this issue
is visually indicated on the Summary bar by pink
background, and Client Disconnected text in red.
An error message informs you that the connection to
the server has been lost and will be restored when
possible.
Red and not animated
Network connection with the server is inactive.
A tooltip displays when you move your cursor over the indicator, and provides
network connection and system status information.
1.5.1.5 Audio Alert Reference
The audio alert is the sound emitted by a client station to notify the operator of
alarms in the management platform. (If a site has multiple client stations, each one
will emit its own audio alert.)
When a new alarm occurs, the client station emits an audio alert that continues for
as long as that alarm remains unprocessed (that is, unacknowledged by the
operator). If there are multiple incoming alarms, the audio alert continues to sound
for as long as any of them remain unprocessed.
The audio alert ceases when the incoming alarms have been acknowledged. It will
resume after 24 hours if a previously-acknowledged alarm has still not been fully
processed (closed) by then.
An icon on the Summary bar [➙ 23] indicates the status of the audio alert. You can
click this icon to temporarily silence the audio alert. Only in some profiles, you can
also completely disable the audio alert. (A tooltip displays when you move the
cursor over the icon, indicating which actions are available to you.)
The specific audio alert sound can vary depending on the type of alarm and is
configuration-dependent. In case of multiple alarms, the audio alert sound will be
the one for the most important (severe) event, irrespective of any filters or sorting
you may have applied to Event List.
For related procedures, see Temporarily Muting the Audio Alert [➙ 29] and
Permanently Silencing the Audio Alert [➙ 29].
