Alarm Types
SureaCare processes all incoming data events as alarms. Before alarm programming can commence, these alarm types must be created.
Properties that can be applied to alarm type include:
- Name – the name of your alarm type.
- Abbr – a message abbreviation for SureaView monitor.
- Foreground and background colours – when the colour fields are selected, a picker box opens with a slider and fine tune area. Save the colour by selecting the circle in the bottom right hand corner.
- Priority – an arbitrary number between 0 and 100 to determine the priority of the alarm in SureaCare, SureaView and SureaCare Android. “0” being the lowest priority, “100” the highest.
- Function digit – a numerical value determining the sound output from an end user device (DECT, pager, etc.).
- Annunciator colour – determines the colour and sound produced by and Austco annunciator if required.
- Alarm sound – apply a .wav audio file to the alarm type, either from samples provided or a custom file you are providing. This sound will be played from SureaView monitor and SureaCare Android.
- Sound interval – the repeat interval of the sound file applied in seconds. For example “0” is constant, “60” is one minute and “300” is five minutes.
