Hello everyone, I am fairly new to using VTScada and I am looking for some advice on how to set up alarms efficiently. I understand that alarms are crucial for monitoring and alerting us to critical conditions but I want to make sure I am configuring them in the best possible way to avoid unnecessary noise and ensure quick response to actual issues. Here are a few specific questions I have: - How do you prioritize alarms to ensure that critical ones are highlighted without overwhelming operators with too many notifications: ?? - Are there any built in tools or features in VTScada that can help manage alarm flooding: ?? - What’s the best way to set up historical logging of alarms for analysis later: ?? I have also searched on the forum for the solution to this query and I found this thread [https://forum.trihedral.com/index.php?u=/topic/495/alarm-from-bits-in-](https://forum.trihedral.com/index.php?u=/topic/495/alarm-from-bits-in-word/post-1481)[kubernetes](https://www.igmguru.com/cloud-computing/kubernetes-training)[-word/post-1481](https://forum.trihedral.com/index.php?u=/topic/495/alarm-from-bits-in-word/post-1481) but couldn't get enough solution. I would really appreciate any tips or examples from your own experience. Thanks in advance for your help !! Best regards, Derek Theler

Note that VTScada has a lot of built in alarm management features built with the ISA 18.2 standard in mind. There are built in tools to help with alarm floods, triaging alarms, alarm statsitcics, and ensuring that alarms can be intelligiently triages based on priority.
