To configure a sound notifier:

  1. Create or edit the notifier you want to configure.
  2. In the Notifier Type dropdown menu, choose Alert by Sound if it is not already chosen. The Sound Notifier configuration panel appears as shown in above.
  3. For each state, use the Sound Name dropdown menu to choose the sound you want to play when the device changes to that state. If you do not want sounds to play for certain states, set those states to None. The states are described below.
