Tip: Click on a folder in the GSM Alarm Browser, and then click Use selected folder to copy
its path to the Path field. You can then edit the path text, if needed.

8. Click OK.

In a few moments, the new template appears in the Incident Templates window. If it does
not appear, click Refresh.

Creating an Incident Template from Event Log Viewer

If you have performed a search using Event Log Viewer that reveals one or more events of
interest, you can use these entries to create an incident template.

To create an incident template using Event Log Viewer

1. Select one or more entries of interest in Event Log Viewer.

2. Right-click anywhere in the selection and click Create incident template.

Note: For a given incident template, there can only be one incident open at a time.
Once the open incident is cleared, the template can be triggered at any time by a
subsequent alarm, whereupon a new incident (with a new ID) will be opened.
