What is a Band Alarm?

A Band Alarm defines a limited range of frequencies to monitor on a spectrum. A band alarm can be either Peak or Power based.

Peak Band Alarms detect when a spectral peak within the defined band goes above a certain value.

Power Band Alarms measure the overall RMS within the defined band and compare that against a threshold value.
