Since you've been set up to receive alerts for specific alarms, it's your responsibility to acknowledge them. The steps you need to follow are determined by the admin during the alarm configuration.

We recommend beginning with the Alarm Management FAQ for guidance.

Alarm alerts from the Alta Access system will appear as pop-up notifications in the lower right corner of your screen.

Alarm Details

To acknowledge the alarms click on the alarm to open it from the Alarm Dashboard. You will be presented with the alarm details and instructions (if added by the admin) on the steps you will take. In my example, the instructions are “Acknowledge and close. Notes required”
