Admin User Training: How to create Validation (Test) Alarms

You can send an automatic validation alarm to all users who are set to receive alarms for a given meter. This feature is available for Professional and Premium level subscriptions.


1. Select the 'Edit' button at the top of the webpage.


2. Select the meter that you want to validate - this will take you to the Edit Point Page.


3. Scroll toward the bottom of the Edit Point Page to Create Validation Alarm.


4. Verify that this is the correct meter you need to validate, and then select Create Validation Alarm. 

5. Select Create Alarm on the pop-up message to run the validation alarm.

6. An alarm will be sent to all users who are set to receive alarms for the selected point, by every method they are set to receive alarms.  For example, if a user is set to receive alarms via Email, Text, and Phone Call, they will receive 3 Validation Alarms for this test.
