DLP-A225 Enable Alarm Filtering
DLP-A225 Enable Alarm Filtering
Step 1 At the node, network, or card view, click the Alarms tab.
Step 2 Click the Filter tool at the lower-left side of the bottom toolbar.
Alarm filtering is enabled if the tool is selected and disabled if the tool is raised (not selected).
Alarm filtering will be enabled in the card, node, and network views of the Alarms tab at the node and
for all other nodes in the network. If, for example, the Alarm Filter tool is enabled in the Alarms tab of
the node view at one node, the Alarms tab in the network view and card view of that node will also show
the tool enabled. All other nodes in the network will also have the tool enabled.
If you filter an alarm in card view, the alarm will still be displayed in node view. In this view, the card
will display the color of the highest-level alarm. The alarm is also shown for the node in the network
view.
Step 3 If you want alarm filtering enabled when you view conditions, repeat Steps 1 and 2 using the Conditions
window.
Step 4 If you want alarm filtering enabled when you view alarm history, repeat Steps 1 and 2 using the History
window.
Step 5 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
