6.1.1. Alarm settings (left side)
In use: Enabled
By default, an alarm is enabled. If an alarm input will
not be used for an extended time, it is best to disable
it by removing the check mark.
Critical alarm via the app
When an alarm is classified as critical, the "Adesys Alarm" app will ignore the "do not disturb", "night mode"
and "silent or vibrate" functions of the phone and always alarm with a loud tone. The "Critical Alarm"
option is disabled by default. Enable "critical alarm" for urgent alarms by placing a check mark. Adjust the
"waiting time between repetitions" according to the urgency of the alarm, for example 5 minutes.
Name
The name of an input is used in the log. Use a name that clearly indicates what the alarm is protecting.
The 'Copy' button is used to copy the name to the alarm text.
Alarm text
The alarm text is the text used in the alarm messages and in voice calls.
When you press the 'Play' button the Octalarm-Touch device speaks the alarm text. If the spoken text is
not clear, it is best to enter the alarm text phonetically.
Normal contact
Here you can set whether the alarm is open (Normally Open) or closed (Normally Closed) when at rest.
Message: When to raise the alarm
Here you can specify when this alarm must be initiated. For non-critical alarms you only want to receive on
weekdays, you can uncheck ''At night' and 'During weekends'.
Delay before active
'Delay before active' is the number of seconds before an alarm will initiate the alarm procedure. By
default, it is set to 5 seconds. To prevent false alarms, some alarms may need to be set to a longer delay.
The maximum number of seconds is 3600 (=1 hour).
Delay after recovery
'Delay after recovery' is the number of seconds before an alarm is stopped. By default, it is set to 2
seconds.
