Note: You can set a silent alarm for an untimed event. In this case, the
alarm triggers at the specified period of minutes, hours or days
before midnight (beginning) of the day of the untimed event. No
audible alarm sounds for an untimed event; instead, the reminder
message displays on the screen of the SPT 1550 terminal.
For example, you could create a reminder for an untimed event that occurs on February
4th. If the alarm reminder is set for 5 minutes, the alarm reminder displays at 11:55 PM on
the night of February 3rd. The reminder remains on the screen until you turn on your SPT
1550 terminal and tap the
OK button to dismiss it.
Once an alarm has gone off, you can dismiss the alarm for a 5 minute period using the
Snooze option.
