MX has a sophisticated system allowing alarms to be displayed (and optionally emailsother sentactions, including sending emails) for many different events.
 
This Wiki page lists the alarms available, and provides ansome expandedguidance versionfor of the hints found withinusing the alarm settings page in the interface.
 
It briefly covers the file that stores alarm settings, but see [[Cumulus.ini|main Cumulus.ini page]] for more general information.
At last update, it shows position as at beta build 3135, (missing some changes included in the 3.12.0 release build of 3141). It is therefore somewhat out of date, in regard to latest MX release, but it is hoped that presenting it as a separate Wiki page will make it more likely that somebody will bring it up to date.
 
Since this Wiki page describes settings that frequently change, this page may be out of date, unless somebody is willing to update the Wiki when a MX release makes a change, it is hoped that presenting Alarms as a separate small Wiki page will make it more likely that somebody will keep it up to date.

Once again, be aware that the information shown may be badly out of date, as MX evolves very quickly. The following screenshot is for release 3.20.0, showing some invalid selections (red edged), some selections made (entries ticked or populated with content), and is intended just as an indication of what you may see. The files listed for sound are at path of '''CumulusMX/interface/sounds'''. Alarm latch time hours are from 3.20.0 able to take decimal values, earlier releases only accepted integer latch hour values. The ''Action'' columns are new at 3.20.0, and can be used to call a script or run external exe etc. but are not listed in the table below.
