Registry
You can make many detailed configurations in the registry in order to customise eAlarm to meet your needs, e.g. to manage co-user rights, automatically send log files, set login timeouts and much more. To add a new entry, select it in the drop-down menu, enter the appropriate values, specify the users for whom the entry should apply and confirm by clicking “Add”. Remove entries by clicking on “Remove”. The table below describes the configuration elements and their valid values: Values separated by commas must be entered without spaces (e.g. de,fr,it).
| Name | Function/description | Permitted values | Standard |
|---|---|---|---|
| Add text coordinate | Specifies coordinates for an alert | 0 or 1 (0: inactive, 1: active) | |
| Alert sheet (customer-specific option) | Name of the medium designation to be used for the alert sheet | Valid medium designation | Empty |
| Alert log file | Name of the medium designation to be used for the alert log file | Valid medium designation | Empty |

| Always Alert Group No. (basic module) | Group that is automatically added to EVERY alert | LID of a group consistent with group export | Inactive |
| Auto Advance Alert Deputy Seconds (basic module) | Automatic escalation to the next deputy x seconds after a deputy, i.e. x seconds after a deputy was triggered, the next is triggered regardless of whether the media priority list was run through. The prerequisite, of course, is that the predecessor may not have sent acknowledgement up to this point. | Whole number between 1 and 900. A number around 180 is advisable depending on how many media an average participant has assigned. Value 1 → alert triggered simultaneously to all deputies. | 300 |
| Auto Advance Alert Fax Seconds (e-mail/fax module) | Automatic escalation to the next medium x seconds after a fax, i.e. after a fax, there is a waiting period of x seconds for feedback before the next medium on the media priority list is used. | Whole number between 1 and 300. A value greater than 10 is advisable. | 10 |
| Auto Advance Alert SMS Seconds (basic module) | Automatic escalation to the next medium x seconds after an SMS, i.e. after an SMS, there is a waiting period of x seconds for feedback before the next medium on the media priority list is used. | Whole number between 1 and 300.

A value between 75 and 300 seconds is advisable (reason: no feedback can be expected in a period of less than 60 seconds, because it takes an average of 50 seconds for the call to go through and the connection to be established. If a shorter timeout is set, this can result in the subscriber already being alerted on the next medium while he is still listening to and acknowledging the alert call.) | 240 |
| Auto Advance Alert Email Seconds (E-Mail/Fax module) | Automatic escalation to the next medium x seconds after an e-mail, i.e. after an e-mail, there is a waiting period of x seconds for feedback before the next medium on the media priority list is used. | Whole number between 1 and 300.

| Auto Advance Alert Pager Seconds (Pager module) | Automatic escalation to the next defined medium, x seconds following a pager call. In other words, after a pager call is made, there is a waiting period of x seconds for feedback before the next medium on the media priority list is used. | Whole number between 1 and 300. A value greater than 60 seconds is advisable, because it takes around 30 seconds to transmit the page. | 120 |
| Auto Advance Alert Serial Seconds (basic module) | Specifies the length of waits between individual subscribers in the case of vertical escalation. | Whole number between 1 and 300.
