RAM configuration involves multiple components such as:

Users may encounter challenges due to the complexity of these elements or lack of familiarity with scripting in RAM.

Resolution

To assist with setup and customization, three key guides are available:

1. Operator’s Manual

   • Basic usage and interface overview
   • Ideal for day-to-day operations

2. Engineer’s Manual

   • More comprehensive than the Operator’s Manual
   • Covers advanced configuration and troubleshooting

3. Script Editor’s Guide

   • Details on customizing and adapting scripts
   • Useful for tailoring RAM behavior to specific site needs

📁 Location of Scripts:
Scripts used by RAM are located in:
C:\Satchwell\Binary\Remote Alarm Manager

• File extension: .scr
• Best practice: Copy and rename scripts before editing to preserve originals.
