Alarms & Warnings
The Alarms & Warnings Page allows the user to establish alarm or warning conditions
(hereafter referred to as "Events") for each sensor reading. Events are triggered when a
measurement exceeds a user-defined threshold, either going above the threshold (high-
trip) or below it (low-trip). Events are displayed in different sections, based on the device
or measurement the Event is associated with. Each Event can have one or more actions
to be taken when the Event occurs.
