The 'Alert settings' screen is shown below. This screen allows you to control what happens when an event occurs; the type, name and volume of the sound, how long the sound will last, how often it will repeat, etc. The links to the right of the image will give further detail about specific functions of this screen.

Vibrate on alert: This option will cause your device to vibrate when the event happens, should it be supported by your Palm device. Some devices use non-standard vibration functions, so Bob's Alarm will not be able to trigger vibration in all cases. It is not possible to test vibrate on the Alert Settings screen; it will only vibrate when an event actually fires.

Override Alarm pref 'no sound': This option tells Bob's Alarm to to force the alarm sound, even if the system Alarm preference has been set to suppress all sounds. Normally, Bob's Alarm will respect the system setting, but this option can be used for any event where it is critical that the event sounds be produced, regardless of any other settings.

Treo devices: Treo6xx devices do not have a single "Alarm" preference setting, and instead they have separate settings for the Phone, Mail, Calendar, MMS and SMS applications. On these devices, Bob's Alarm will respect the settings for the "Calendar" application. .
