Alarm
The Alarm is an action that requires users to acknowledge an alert. This helps ensure that the user is aware
of the alert.
If the Alarm action has been included in a specific event rule and no one acknowledges that alert after it
occurs, the Legrand PDU resends or regenerates an alert notification regularly until the alert is
acknowledged or the maximum number of alert notifications is sent.
For information on acknowledging an alert, see
Dashboard
(on page 87).
