apex alarm help

[Joe0813]

I am absolutely terrible at this apex code stuff. so bad that I actually don't even enjoy having the apex. I have two different questions for setting up alarms for my apex.... Help

1: I plow for the town and my wife works nights as a ER nurse. If there was ever a power outage and no one is home to see that the power is out I want to set up a alarm to tell me the tank is offline so I can call someone and turn on the generator.

2: I keep getting these alarms once an hour and have no clue what its for. (Apex Fusion Alarm: apex) Date: xx/xx/xx Status: ON Statement: Set OFF

no one knows how to do this?

Post the code from your alarm.

As to the power outage, you will need a UPS (uninterupted power supply) like you would use on a computer, a aux power supply for the Apex, and some simple coding.
Look at page 141

Also you could set up Heartbeat so if the Apex doesn't communicate with Fusion for over 30 minutes, you would get an email. Then you could call someone to go check why.

Figured out the alarm... I just set up heartbeat. Going to do a test run tomorrow
