Save as Collection
You must have at least two of these collections, one for City A’s systems and one for City B’s systems.
For devices in City A, you must create a norma
l event handler (use
Options

Automatic Event
Handling

New
menu options to set up this standard Notification) for those devices in City A using
the above Event System combo collection and it is enabled all the time. Do the same for City B.
To handle the tra
nsient nature for turning the event handler on and off for the other CMS’s devices,
use a Custom tool, which creates the handler for other CMS devices only when that CMS becomes
unavailable.
Creating the custom tool
This tool adds an event handler for the
devices that no longer have their CMS to perform notification.
