The factory and default audio alarms sound when an event occurs – independent of any
glider involved with the event. Glider audio alarms override factory and default alarms
for a specific dockserver / glider / event combination. For example, a unique audio
alarm could sound for glider zippy on dockserver64 when it surfaces. Figure 412
shows the glider properties dialog. The “Enable” checkbox enables/disables the
triggering of a glider audio alarm. If the “Use Default” checkbox is checked, the default
alarm corresponding to this glider alarm's event is triggered in place of this glider alarm
(even if the glider alarm is enabled). For example, the glider alarm configuration shown
in figure 412 will trigger the default audio alarm when zippy on dockserver64 surfaces.

For a glider audio alarm (and not its corresponding default alarm) to trigger, the “Use
Default” checkbox must be unchecked and the “Enable” checkbox must be checked. To
disable all alarms from triggering for a specific dockserver / glider / event combination,
the “Use Default” and “Enable” checkboxes must be unchecked.
To save glider alarm configuration changes, the user clicks the OK button. Clicking the
Cancel button discards any changes made since opening the glider properties dialog.
