How are alarms received?
Correct Answer:
When a responder changes to an alarm status
Explanation:
Alarms are received when a responder changes to alarm status. This means the system treats an alarm as active only after someone explicitly marks themselves or the incident as being in alarm, creating a clear, auditable record of who acknowledged it and when. This deliberate status change ensures proper accountability and enables immediate escalation to the right people, rather than assuming an alarm just from sensor activity. If alarms were automatically received, there wouldn’t be that direct, verifiable link to a specific responder. If reception happened only during staffed hours, coverage would be inconsistent. And if an alert came after a manual reset by the user, that describes clearing an alarm, not initiating it.
