With the Alarm App, you have the option of automatically importing your alarm circles, display names, rooms and computers. An automatic import can be used if you maintain certain .txt files and do not want to carry out this maintenance work on the Alarm App interface.
 

Proceed as follows for an automatic import:

 

Store the files you want to use for the automatic import in the installation directory under “.../best_web/etc/alarm/”.

If this folder does not exist, you can easily create it.
 

Activate the autoimport by creating a new entry in the serverboard, setting under the section “alarm” the key “txt_autoimport” with a value between -1 and 23. -1 deactivates the function and the values 0 to 23 specify the hour of the autoimport.
