Alarm Clients Configuration

During Development

The AlarmGateway is compatible with:

  • The .NET "AlarmClient" control used in InTouch
  • The "AlarmApp" application used in OMI

The alarm query configuration is identical for both controls:

  • On a local session (thick client): "\$localhost:\AlmGateway!<Top area>".
  • On a remote session (Remote Desktop, alias RDS): "\localhost:\AlmGateway!<Top area>"

The configuration of the columns to display is based on the AlarmGateway configuration:

The columns specific to the AlarmGateway (as configured) are:

  • Type
  • Class
  • Limit
  • User3

The headers displayed in the alarm client can be modified by double-clicking in the "Object Name" column of each column.


At Runtime

The alarm query configuration is as follows:

  • On a local session (thick client): "Node='$localhost:' and Provider='AlmGateway' and Group='<Top area>'".
  • On a remote session (RDS): "Node='localhost:' and Provider='AlmGateway' and Group='<Top area>'".
