Configuring the CygNet Alarm Manager Module
The module configuration for CygNet Alarm Manager (CAM) is stored as XML in the Script field of a dedicated HSS point. This point will be created if it does not exist when you set the options via the CamModuleConfiguration.csf CygNet Studio screen. The Long Point ID for the configuration point is ALMMODULE_CONFIG.
We do not recommend direct modification of the XML string.
The options that can be configured for the CAM are as follows:
| Options | Description |
