Alarm Query Syntax when Register Using Galaxy_<GalaxyName> is Enabled

In the WinPlatform object, when you enable InTouch alarm provider, you can enable Register using Galaxy_<GalaxyName> instead of Galaxy. This option will register the platform to the alarm subsystem using the Galaxy name prefixed by "Galaxy_" instead of just the word "Galaxy". This allows an InTouch application to monitor alarms from multiple Galaxies and avoid name conflicts.

Syntax changes slightly when Galaxy_GalaxyName is enabled:

• Use \\ for computer name.

• Use \ for Galaxy or Galaxy_<GalaxyName>.

• Use ! for Area.

For example: \\Galaxy\MyGalaxy!Area001.

If Galaxy_GalaxyName is not enabled in WinPlatform, then the default behavior described in the previous section applies.

You can determine if Galaxy_<GalaxyName> has been enabled by monitoring the run-time attribute of the platform ITAlarmProvider.ProviderNameAsGalaxyNameEnabled.
