<p>If noteworthy events occur during the running of the program, or as a result of user
action, depending on the your desired level of detail, these can be
sent as Alerts to an administrator or other system operator by
e-mail, logged to a file, and displayed in the alerts window on the
Alerts Screen.</p>
<img class="screenshot" src="http://www.tri-line.com/common/img/documentation/tim_professional/alerts.png" alt="Alerts" />
<p>The screen consists of three portions:</p>
<table class="confluenceTable">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th class="confluenceTh" width=90>Panel</th>
<th class="confluenceTh">Description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="confluenceTd"><b>Log Window</b></td>
<td class="confluenceTd">Where any noteworthy event is logged, along with the
date and time it occurred and an icon illustrating the severity of
the event.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="confluenceTd"><b>Alert Setup</b></td>
<td class="confluenceTd">Where the user defines the action to be taken in the
case of each type of event.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="confluenceTd"><b>Inactivity Timer</b></td>
<td class="confluenceTd">Where the user may stop the Inactivity
Timer Alarm if it is currently sounding.</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>To set-up each type of alert, select the alert type from the drop-down list - choose from
Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3, Level 1 alerts being the most critical.
You can then specify a filename to which any event of that level will
be recorded. You may also choose an e-mail address to receive
notification of such an alert.</p>
<p>Different levels of alerts can have different log filenames and be sent
to different e-mail addresses.</p>
<p>When amending the filename or e-mail address for a particular alert, remember to press
the Save button to save your changes. Your changes become effective immediately.</p>
<p>The levels of alert are defined as Urgent/Critical, Warnings, and Information, and
the events that cause them are described below:</p> |
