You can set different sounds for alarms at different levels. When the ATIC Management center receives an alarm, the client host sound box plays the audio notification for the highest level and Uncleared and Unconfirmed alarms.
Context

If the sound type is set Normal, the system plays the audio notification per thirty seconds for the highest level and Uncleared and Unconfirmed alarms.

It is recommended to set Cyclic for critical and major alarms in case that the maintenance personnel is not on site temporarily and cannot hear the alarm sound.
