Objects

"Objects" section contains a hierarchical tree of all objects in the system. You can collapse and expand a branch with the button next to the entity’s name.

If you click on the entity, the alarms list is filtered by this object. All other filters will be reset.

You can define filters by multiple entities on the Alarms or History pages manually. However, selecting an entity from the tree in the side menu resets those filters.

If the object or any of its children generated an alarm, the number next to the name of that object will display the number of alarms generated by that object and its children.

Objects that are used as filters for the list of alarms are marked with the πŸ– symbol in the object tree. If the list of alarms is filtered by an object, the root element of the tree (Objects) will also have the πŸ– symbol next to it. You can reset this filter by pressing the root element of the tree.

Objects are marked with the colors of their current state.

Severity

The Severity section contains all alarm levels in the system.

When you click on an alarm level, the list of alarms will be filtered by this level. All other filters will be reset.

You can define filters by alarm levels on the Alarms or History pages manually. However, selecting an alarm level from the tree in the side menu resets those filters.
