WEBfactory 2010 WCF Alarms Service Documentation

Abstract

This article provides all the needed information to learn and understand the WCF Alarms Service documentation.

This WCF web service handles all the alarm related operations. The following methods are available:

UpdateAlarmGeneralComment(string sessionId, string clientId, string userName, bool IsDomainUser, Guid alarmID, string comment, int millisecondsTimeOut)

This method follows the WEBfactory 2010 Security Protocol.

Syntax

UpdateAlarmGeneralComment(string sessionId, string clientId, string userName, bool IsDomainUser, Guid alarmID, string comment, int millisecondsTimeOut);

Description

Updates the text of the alarm's general comment

Parameters
