About Alarm Alerts

In your account, you can review, acknowledge, and add comments to your current and historical alerts.
Alerts are the result of triggered alarms, which will be captured in the Alerts and Events pages of your account.
Alert notifications will be delivered to users via email, text message, and/or phone call based on the alarm configurations.
Alerts are categorized as either warning alerts or excursion alerts based on the alarm configurations.

Acknowledging Alerts

In the alerts pages you can acknowledge the alerts by clicking Acknowledge next to the alert log. Acknowledgements can be done for all current and historical alerts, and will also capture a timestamp when the alert was acknowledged and by who.

Only excursion alerts be displayed in the device graph area under the summary data, and users can acknowledged those alerts in that area as well.

Note Both warning and excursion alerts are documented in the alerts and events pages. However, only excursion alerts will display an excursion flag in the graph area and display an excursion alert annotation under the summary data. Excursion alerts will appear on both exports and reports, and warnings will not.
