      Single and bulk alarm creation

      Summary: This walk through will assist you with creating alarms (single and bulk) for specific sites/data points. Alarm notifications are received via email/text or both.

      NOTE: In order to receive alarm notifications via text message, your phone number needs to be on file with Wellaware.
      PRO TIP:  All Wellaware units have 3 standard alarms when shipped out:  

      Creating a single alarm:
      1. To establish a single alarm for a specific site, please proceed to the desired site and access the ALARMS tab.
      2. Select the ALARMS option, indicated by the gear icon.    
      3. Select the + ADD NEW option located at the top right-hand corner.

      4. Now you can choose what ASSET you would like to add an alarm to.

      5. Upon selecting your ASSET, proceed to designate the POINT for the alarm signal. In this instance, we will add the low voltage alarm for external power back to the unit. Please select External Voltage as your POINT and then click ADD.

      6. Next the EDIT ALARMS page will populate.  From here you can customize your alarm settings.

      • Alarm Name: Choose an alarm name. You can use the default that populates or create 
         your own name.  This alarm is named Low Voltage Warning.
      •  Priority: Choose between low, medium, high, and critical.
      •  Alarm Type: Type will vary based off the asset that is chosen.  For this example Low   Threshold will be used.
      •  Threshold/Status: Type will vary based off the asset that is chosen. However, this is 
         where you will choose the value of your desired trigger threshold.  For this example when     the external power drops below 10v, a low priority alarm will trigger.
      •  Recommended Action: This is fully customizable to what you would like to see on the 
         HOME page for recommendations. 
      •  Required Acknowledgements: You will need to go in to LIFT to acknowledge the alarm 
         once action has been taken to clear it.
      •  Auto acknowledge on clear: When an alarm clears on its own, it will auto acknowledge 
         the alarm. Ex: If the voltage alarm is set to alarm when a battery is at 10v or less. If the 
         voltage drops to 9.50v then goes back to 10.5v, the alarm will automatically clear.

      Choose SAVE and you have successfully set up an alarm.

       

      Creating a bulk alarm:

      The purpose of creating the bulk alarm is if you are creating the same alarm for multiple sites.  In this example we will create a low tank alarm and deploy to multiple sites at once.

      1. To begin, select the GROUP to which you wish to add your bulk alarm.
      2. Next, navigate to the ALARMS section located on the left side of your screen.
      3. Finally, click on GROUP ALARMS at the top center of the screen to proceed.

      4.  On the next screen choose + CREATE NEW at the top right of your screen.
      5. Choose your asset:  Connect, Pump, or Tank.
      6. Choose your point: Varies depending on what asset you choose.

        Once you have filled out your EDIT ALARM page choose SAVE.  Next a pop up will appear showing your completed alarm set up.  Choose SELECT SITES.
