The following program description deals with:
By use of this program, the status of all of the processing units can be displayed on the screen. This information provides the user with details on the current state of each terminal and to check for offline conditions. Warning messages can be issued indicating an offline condition for a terminal for statistic reports, which are called up at the administration terminal. Further details on offline messages can be found in the documentation Offline messages for POS.

program. The name of the application program "AlertManager" should be
entered in field Program name.
