Define how often queue information is updated by entering the number of seconds into the field above the columns and clicking the Update button. The default value is 10. The application does not save the value, and you must re-enter it if you close and reopen the view.

To activate alarms for each queue, select the Alarm Activated checkbox on the left of the queue name.
To display the queue alarm limits and enable changing them, select the Show Alarm Settings box. The following alarms are in use:
- In Queue Alarm: The alarm occurs when the number of contacts in a queue exceeds the set limit. The default value is 5.

- On Each Update: The focus is moved to the active alarm every time the view is updated. The default option.
- Once for New Alarm: The focus is moved to the active alarm only once.
