Resolution Codes are user-created codes that are customized for particular alarm situations. For example, an alarm may be received that has been set off as a result of a thunderstorm. The Operator may wish to resolve the alarm by entering "WE" for "Weather," where "WE" has been previously defined in the Resolution Codes section of Supervisor Workstation as a false alarm.
