IoTHubAlarmRecipient

Summary

This recipient is responsible for sending alarm events to an IoTHub device.

Implementation

1. Open the btibIoTHub palette and drag and drop the IoTHubAlarmRecipient to the AlarmService.
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. Fill the optional alarm data you want to add to the document which will represent each alarm record. Example: msgTxt, building, floor...
3. Give a name to the device which will be dedicated to alarms in the destination field. (IoTHub doesn't have a native representation of alarms, this is why we use a dedicated device which collects all the alarm events).
4. Select the connector if you have multiple IoTHub connectors in your station
