Once you have alarms configured in Ignition, you can notify people when alarms occur. Ignition provides three Notification Profile Types: Email, SMS or text message, and Voice through a phone call in Ignition. All three of these notification profiles can be configured to be two-way which can be acknowledged via email, or by text message, or by pressing 1 on the phone. Here is a brief description of each Notification Profile Type:
Details on how to create and configure each of these profiles are found on the following sub-pages.
Each Notification Profile requires the Alarm Notification Module. This is because Notification Pipelines are managed and defined by the Alarm Notification Module. The SMS Notification Module and Voice Notification Module are similar in concept to browser plug-ins in that they extend the functionality of another piece of software. The SMS Notification and Voice Notification are both separate modules, and can be downloaded from the Ignition Downloads webpage. To learn more about installing these modules, refer to Installing or Upgrading a Module.
Each Alarm Notification Profile needs a method to deliver the message. These methods are not included with the Alarm Notification Module, and some may require additional hardware to be purchased.
