System alarms in NorCloud are Project defined alarms about the instruments, and not alarms regarding the measurement itself. You will find the 
System Alarm settings in the left menu in project view.
Alarms will be displayed under the Alarm Tab in the Project dashboard, but you can also define a set of recipients of these alarms separated by comma or space in the text fields above. You got two possibilities of sending alarms, via email or via sms (if system is online via a LTE modem). There can be as many recipients as you need, and the recipients does not need to be a NorCloud user.
To avoid receiving too many messages you can define the time period between two alarm notifications. When a period is due you will receive a message with a complete list of alarms registered during this period.
The following System alarms are available:
