      Volumetrica provides a set of default sound notifications within the Documents/VolSys/Alert Sound folder.

    • Select the desired sound file (e.g., file number 11)
    • Click Open to load it and use the green button to play the sound.
    • Click on Save to confirm the new sound notification.
    • Save Settings

Associate Sound Notifications to Annotations and Indicators:

Added notifications can be associated with Annotations and Indicators: 

  • Open a new chart 
  • Add Annotations or Indicators.

Annotations: 

  • Select annotation
  • Right-click on item
  • Enable Alerts Sound. 
  • Click on Notification Settings
    • Select a sound notification from the list (e.g., "Resistance" for a resistance line).

Indicators:

  • Access the Indicator Parameters (Indicators section or right-click - indicators)
  • Open Sound Notification
