Receiving Alarms
If Enabled Alerts (on the Alerts dialog box of device properties), is selected, AND if you have added an alert to this dialog box, an alert occurs when a device fails to respond to four (the default) consecutive polling requests. To play an audible alert, you must have a sound card installed on your system. You can set the number of failed poll requests that triggers a sound alert.
To silence an audible alert, click the Quiet button in the main toolbar, or from the Monitor menu, select Stop Alarm.
