Alerts
Alerts give notification of internal events that affect controller operation, and in some cases
indicate that some action is needed to correct a condition. When the controller starts, it displays
the Global Alerts view by default. When operating in a team, alerts generated by any team
member are visible in the Alerts display for all active team members.
Figure 5 Example of Global Alerts View
The three Alert levels are:
 - Informational
 - Warning
 - Critical
To step up and down through the alert listings, use the arrow keys in the lower left corner of the
alert display. To select the number of alerts to display in a single view, use the options in the
lower right corner of the alert display. (For listings exceeding the length of the alert display, you
can also use the scroll bar on the right side of the view.)
Refresh the Alert Listing
The alert page is a static display. New alerts do not automatically appear in the Global Alerts
view until the page is refreshed by clicking on the Refresh button. The alert notification counter
runs as a background task, and as new alerts occur, the counter is incremented.
