How to Manage Threshold Alerts

In order to manage Threshold Alerts you will need to have the Devices/Thresholds/Edit permission enabled on your User Role. For more information on User Roles please see How to manage what your users can access.

Note: Thresholds apply to the Location where you set them and all Locations further down in the Location Hierarchy. In other words, setting a Threshold on a Site will apply to that Site and to all Facilities, Rooms and Zones in that Site, but setting a Threshold on a Room will only apply to that Room and any Zones in that Room. Keep in mind, however, that Threshold Alerts can only be triggered by incoming measurement data from Sensors within the given Location Hierarchy.

For more information on the Threshold Alert system, please see How threshold alerts work.

To manage Threshold Alert, follow these steps:

1. Use the Location Selector on the left-hand sidebar to navigate to the Location under which you wish to manage Thresholds. This could be a Site, Facility, Room, or Zone type.
   1. For more information on using the Location Selector please see How to navigate between different locations.
2. Click on the Thresholds option in the left-hand sidebar menu.
3. Click on the Add Threshold button on the top right of the page or on the Edit button to the right of an existing Threshold.

6. Enter any desired messages you wish to be included in the notification when a given Alert is triggered.
7. Click on the Save Threshold button on the top right of the page.
