Call external program in case of an alarm

[BearingHH]

Hi,

if there will be an extra option to call an external program/script when an alarm is triggered, would be a nice addition. When it would be possible to use your variables in this command line field as parameters, even better.

And a triggering offset would be also perfect and perhaps a re-arm offset. For the first, the alarm would get my attention when its needed and not already over.

Thanks!

Hello BearingHH,

Thanks for your post and suggestion.

Just to verify, are you familiar with the current Alert() method and the use of the Alerts window?
