Monitor Option Buttons
To access the Monitor screen, click
Monitor on the Navigation Bar.
The Monitor
option buttons located at the left-hand side
of the Monitor screen enable you to perform
various monitoring-related tasks. The User
Groups and Contact Methods buttons are displayed
only if you have Account Manager privileges.
The Monitor option buttons are described in
the following table:

Description

User Groups
|
Enables you to group users for automatic
notification of monitoring alarms. This option
links to an option in the Accounts area and
launches a separate window.
|
|
Contact Methods
|
Enables you to set up lists of groups
and preferred methods of contact for monitoring
alarm notification. This option links to an
option in the Accounts area and launches in
a separate window.

Commit Changes
|
Saves
any monitor or alarm changes, causing them
to be uploaded and deployed for monitoring.
This action commits the changes made since
the last commit.
Clicking the Commit Changes button can
cause a disruption in monitoring while the
changes are applied, because the update can
take a while to be applied. Do not click the
Commit Changes button twice because doing
so sends another update. Entries made in the
various monitor and alarm windows and dialog
boxes are recorded as you make them, but they
are not saved or affected until you save them
by clicking Commit Changes on the Monitor
screen.
