...

All alarm panels share a lot of common functionality, whether it's a hideable filter on the left side of the panel, an alarm/event detail on the right, or control of the table and its context panel located above the table. For this reason, the following subchapters are organized to describe the common functionality in one place and thus not to repeat the same description unnecessarily several times.

The panel of active alarms displays all currently active alarms in the system (light red text), in a special case also alarms that are already inactive but require confirmation (so-called mandatory acknowledged alarms). In the table, such alarms are displayed in blue text. An acknowledged alarm that is still active is displayed in dark red. Active alarms can be acknowledged either by double-clicking on a row in the table or by clicking the "Confirm" button at the bottom of the active alarms panel. This button is active if at least one selected alarm can be acknowledged. Next to the acknowledge button, there are also the "Block", "Pause" and "Mute" buttons. "Block" and "Pause" buttons, which change the status of the selected alarms to blocked - basically, these . These alarms will be lost moved from the active alarms panel to the blocked alarms panel and will appear in . Button "Mute" will also move the alarm to the blocked alarms panel, but only for the currently logged in user. This action will not affect other users and they will see the alarm in its original state.

In addition to the status and alarm buttons, the "Detail" and "History" buttons are present at the bottom of all alarm panels. The "Detail" button opens in the right part detail of the selected alarm with the possibility to display all schemes on which the object belonging to the alarm is used.

The blocked alarms panel shows the currently blocked or suspended alarms in the system and muted alarms for current user.

Alternatively, individual alarms can be quickly unblocked by double-clicking on a table row. In this case, the filter does not display the current numbers of active alarms after the names of the alarm logic groups - these numbers do not make sense in this view.

The alarm window configuration is not automatically saved in the computer's registry as with other windows. Nonetheless, it is possible to explicitly set this configuration for the user, so that this setting is consistent for him on all computers. The current window settings can be saved or exported in the advanced window settings. However, the save button of the window settings window is allowed only to administrators or users who have the configuration allowed to save alarms (checked checkbox "Change alarm window parameters" on the user's mask). The button to export the window configuration to a file is enabled for everyone. Such a file can then be imported in into the user settings (item Alarm window configuration). This means that e.g. the administrator can set the same default alarm window configuration for multiple users.
