Menu Name Menu Description
Enable Enables and disables the selected alarm on the selected
device.
Mute Mutes all alarm notifications for the selected device
alarm. For example, when Mute is enabled, active
alarm notifications for the selected alarm do not
appear in the control panel display. Any alarm
monitoring mechanism within the network is also
muted.
Active Time Sets the amount of time in seconds (in 0.1 second
increments) that an alarm condition exists before it is
considered an “active alarm.” This setting is specific
to the control panel only. It does not affect module
card-edge alarms.
Clear Time Sets the amount of time in seconds (in 0.1 second
increments) that an alarm condition is resolved before
it is considered inactive (no longer an active alarm).
This setting is specific to the control panel only. It
does not affect module card-edge alarms.
Priority Assigns an alarm priority value to the selected device
alarm. Priority values range from 1 (for the lowest
priority alarms) to 10 (for the highest priority alarms).
