Activities

When the value of a particular object, for which an alert has been configured:

Exceeds the upper warning threshold value or falls below the lower warning threshold value, the yellow traffic light appears in the Exception field for the object
Exceeds the upper threshold value or falls below the lower threshold value, the red traffic light appears in the Exception field for the object
If the alert is not configured to have upper or lower threshold values, the red traffic light automatically appears in the Exception field when the alert appears.

After you have dealt with a problem via the Alert Monitor troubleshooting tools, the relevant object disappears.
