Hysteresis: This value for alarms is set to prevent multiple recordings of an event
that goes above the threshold and a certain percentage below it at times.
Example: Alarm threshold is 100 Volts or higher, hysteresis is 1%. When the voltage
goes up to 100V, the alarm condition starts. When it goes back down to 99V, the alarm
condition stops.
Disable All Alarms: Whenthisboxischecked,allalarmswillbedisabledevenif

Make sure this is not checked if you
want to record alarms.
Enabled: Whencheckboxischecked,alarmisenabled.
Capture Parameter: The Alarm will be triggered based on the value of the selected
parameter.
