The Alarm number is purely a reference number used to distinguish one
alarm input from another. The alarm number field is NOT a changeable field.
The alarm group number is used for targeting alarm messages onto video
output devices. When an alarm is detected, the alarm group number is used
to determine which video output device will display the associated alarm
message text. Valid values are 0–99.
Enter the desired alarm group number and press Enter on the keyboard.
Note: Alarm groups 1 – 99 can display alarm message text onto video
output channels. Alarm group 0 is always a non-displayable alarm group.
Alarms in this group are not handled by the alarm stack manager.
This is an 18-character description used to identify the alarm input. It is
displayed as the alarm message text, on every video output device that has
been selected to display the associated alarm group.
Enter up to an 18-character description and press Enter on the keyboard.
