Applying a template
You can manually configure the threshold and dispatch settings, and alarm notification settings,
or use the details from an already configured component record as a template and apply the same
settings across multiple other selected records.
IMPORTANT: You cannot enable or disable alarms on the selected component records using this
option. For more information on enabling or disabling alarm notifications, see “Enabling or disabling
alarms” (page 122).
To apply settings across multiple records:
1. Click PA and DB Settings+Configure Alarms in the left pane.
2. In the Alarms table, select the component records for which you want to specify the threshold
level.
You can also filter component records in the Alarms table.
The configured alarm settings are automatically populated in the respective fields in the Settings
section below the Alarms table.
The details in the combo boxes are appended based on the records selected. The last selected
record must be highlighted in the settings panel.
