Hi there,

First, you will need to enter the error conditions in the settings of the Event Log Sensor. The Error value is prefabricated with the threshold 0,00000001, which will immediately trigger if an alarm occurs. Click on the Notification tab of your sensor and add a state trigger which triggers after "0" seconds. This will send out a notification as soon as the Event Log Sensor is set in an error state.

Best regards
