Repeat Until Normal check box is checked.
8. Type in the Interval field (or use the arrow buttons in the field to select) the number of seconds that 
will pass between repeated notifications in this Alert Sequence.
9. Specify Capture Settings for Graphs and Pictures associated with this Alert Sequence. Capture 
settings can be used to override the Maximum Camera Pictures and Include a Graph with the Alert 
settings for all Alert Actions that you associate with this Alert Sequence. 
By default, alert sequence Capture Settings are set to Capture if requested, which indicates that this 
alert sequence will capture graphs and pictures if alert actions are configured to request them (i.e. if 
the Maximum Camera Pictures setting is greater than 0 or the Include a Graph with the Alert check 
box is checked). While this setting ensures that pictures and graphs are included with alert 
notifications, in some circumstances you may wish to receive images or graphs only from some 
alert sequences (such as the initial alert notification), or you might want to preserve graphs and 
images on the appliance even if they are not included with alert notifications. 
Rather than creating multiple copies of the same Alert Action, some which enable the inclusion of 
camera pictures and graphs and some that do not, you can just create one Alert Action (for example, 
e-mail) and use the capture controls to override the Alert Action settings as follows:
– Set the Graph or Picture Capture Settings to Never capture. When Capture Settings are set to 
Never capture, images or graphs are not included with any alert actions that are associated with 
the alert sequence, regardless of the Maximum Camera Pictures and Include a Graph with the 
Alert settings for the alert actions. 
– Set the Graph or Picture Capture Settings to Always capture. When Capture Settings are set to 
Always capture, images or graphs are always captured by the appliance, even if the Maximum 
Camera Pictures and Include a Graph with the Alert settings for the individual alert actions are 
not set to capture this data. While this data will not be included with the alert notifications 
associated with your alert actions, the images and graphs associated with the alerts will be 
available for use via the Alerts View.
1. Specify the Alert Actions that will be carried out as part of this Alert Sequence. Click Add 
Actions..., and then select one or more Alert Actions from the Add Action window. Click OK to add 
the selected actions to your Alert Sequence.
2. Click OK to save the Alert Sequence to your Alert Profile.
Creating an Alert Profile
To create a new Alert Profile (or modify a previously created Alert Profile):
1. Double-click on the Alert Profile icon.
2. Click Add.... If you are modifying a previously created Alert Profile, select from the Profile table 
the desired Alert Profile and then click Edit....
3. Type in the Label field a name for the new Alert Profile.
4. Create one (or more) Alert Sequences for use with this Alert Profile.
5. Click OK to save the Alert Profile.
Note
Don't forget that images will only be captured and included in an alert notification, 
regardless of Capture Settings, if you have checked at least one Cameras to Trigger check 
box when defining a threshold.
