alarm-StationRecipient

This component manages the transfer of alarms between the AlarmService and a remote station. For example, a station may send alarm notifications to a supervisor station – or any other remote station in the system. The StationRecipient is available in the alarm palette.

The station recipient component provides a place to specify the location and other details about that remote station. The properties on a station recipient include a field for selecting the remote station, as well as alarm collection options.
