How to: Page for cleared alarms

[Radioworks]

I've got a system that pages out alarms quite well now, but I don't have anything that pages me when the alarm clears.    I can't seem to figure a way that will send me a message with the alarms description of what cleared.

Does anyone have a sample expression they can send me or some thoughts?

Thanks!

Hi Radioworks,

There is no simple/explicit way of doing this in Lookout. However, similar functionality can be achieved by a work around using multiple alarms.

Have a great day!

Thanks for the reply Prashanth.

Your reply was a little veig.  Do you mean something like I should create an inverted alarm points for each alarm.  Then do something like when all real alarms are clear that every inverted alarm is active?

Hi Radioworks,

Thats exactly what I meant to say! So, when your actual alarm is active, your inverted alarm is not and vice versa. Based on the conditions of these two alarms you can have messages paged out. Disadvantage to this method is that you may receive redundant messages. If I come across any better ways to accomplish this, I will post it here.

Have a great weekend!
