The pump unreachable alarm is a very useful function, but there may be times when the standard alarm needs to be replaced by something less intrusive.

If you have reached objective 9 (automations) then you could disable the standard AAPS alarm and replace this with a notification, SMS and/or alarm. Below is the setup I used. I wanted a robust alternative. I suggest using a combination of alerts and notifications as this is an important alarm you do not want to miss.

Disabling the Standard Alarm:

Go to Preferences ->Local Alerts -> Alert if pump is unreachable and turn the toggle switch off

Now we need to configure an automation to replace the standard alarm. I decided to create two automations as I wanted the standard alarm to sound at night when I was unlikely to wake from an SMS or notification.

Enabling an automation:

Enable automations in the config builder by ticking the box next to the name in the General plugins menu.

Creating an Automation:

1. Enable the automation
2. Name the automation something useful and descriptive.
3. Edit the condition of the automation
4. Add an action to perform once the condition is achieved
5. The text the SMS will send my phone once the condition is achieved
6. The notification that appears in AAPS once the condition is achieved
7. Hit ok to save the automation

NOTE: Ensure you name the notification or SMS text as the automation will not work unless you do.

Alarms:

The alarm tone is the standard tone for the phone timer. Once the alarm starts sounding you will need to deactivate it using your phone.
