<h4>About Creating Alarms</h4>
<ul>
 	<li>Alarms can be created on the loggers so that an audible alarm can be triggered when specific conditions are met</li>
 	<li>Depending on the device, some devices will display a bell icon to indicate an active alarm visually</li>
 	<li>If a device does not allow alarms, a message Logger Does not Support Alarm Functionality will populate</li>
</ul>
<h4>How to Create Alarms</h4>
