The Add / Edit Alarm Mapping dialog box allows you to create or edit existing alarm mapping. The dialog box has the following fields:
• The Attribute column defines the SCADA measurement or System Alarm.
• The Device Class column defines the device class associated with the mapping.
• The Normal State column defines whether this mapping relates to a normally open or a normally closed device.
• The Alarm Def column defines what alarm definition the mapping should use.
• The Active column defines whether this row is active or not.
The following buttons are available:
• Save Changes: Saves the alarm mapping and closes the dialog box.
• Cancel Edit: Cancels the action and closes the dialog box.

All system alarms must have a Trigger Type set to system. The Trigger Value for each system alarm is as follows:
• STATUS: Attribute 0 this represents the topology status.
• DIGITAL_MEASUREMENT range from 1 to 999

Understanding the Priorities Tab
The Priorities tab defines the available alarm priorities in the system. Priorities can be optionally assigned a wav sound file that is played when an unacknowledged alarm is generated with that priority.
The Priority table has the following columns:
• The Name column defines the name of the priority
• The Sound column defines the wav file associated with the alarm priority.
• The Active column defines whether the priority is active or not.
