Starting with version 4.7, an E3Alarm allows viewing the status of connections configured on the Connections tab. To enable that status bar, configure E3Alarm's ShowConnectionStatusBar property on Properties List. The next figure displays a status bar enabled.
E3Alarm's status bar for connections
The following E3Alarm properties can be configured to control the behavior of a status bar:
•ShowConnectionStatusBar: Displays or hides the status bar
•ConnectionStatusBarColor: Specifies a background color for the status bar
•PictureConnected: Path to an image file with an icon representing a successful connection. Default for E3Alarm is displaying the icon 
•PictureNotConnected: Path to an image file with an icon representing a failed connection. Default for E3Alarm is displaying the icon 
•PictureUnknown: Path to an image file with an icon representing an unknown connection. Default for E3Alarm is displaying the icon 
NOTE |
The unknown status indicates that an E3Alarm did not receive a confirmation from the Alarm Server that this connection was successful. This is the default status for versions earlier than 4.7. |
