Alarm Profiles
Profile names must be unique. If you try to import or name a profile that has the same name as another
profile, CTC adds a suffix to create a new name.
Step 9 Click OK.
A new alarm profile (named in Step 5) is created. This profile duplicates the severities of the default
profile and is added as a new column on the far right-hand side.
Step 10 Modify (customize) the alarm profile:
a. In the new alarm profile column, click in a row that contains the alarm severity you want to change.
b. From the menu, select the desired severity.
c. Repeat Steps a and b for each alarm that needs to be changed.
d. After you have assigned the properties to your new alarm profile, click the new alarm profile to
highlight it and click the Store button.
e. In the Store Profile(s) dialog box, select a node or nodes where the profile will be stored and/or
specify a file on the workstation.
f. Click OK.
Note You can also clone alarm profiles shown under the Available tab.
