Specify the Preferred Alarm Banner and Alarms List Options on a ViewX Client

ClearSCADA has predefined default settings that affect the appearance and behavior of the Alarm Banner and Alarms Lists on ViewX clients. For example, there are default settings for the type of fonts used, the sort order, and the default alarm bell sound. By using the Options window, you can adjust these settings to suit your own requirements.

To change the default properties for alarm displays, you need to log on via an account that has the Configure Options setting enabled (in the User configuration). Once you are logged on, you can display the Options window. The default settings that affect the Alarm Banner and Alarms Lists are shown on the Alarms and Events tab.

For more information on how you can use the Alarms and Events settings, see the topics that are listed in the gray footer section at the bottom of this topic. Select the relevant entry to display the topic that you require.

Any changes you make to the Alarms and Events settings are implemented on the client as soon as you select the OK button. They only apply to the ViewX client on which you made the changes, which means you can define different appearance and behavior settings for each ViewX client as required.
