You can use dynamic limits by selecting a tag or equation instead of statical values

You can use placeholders such as {tag.label} in the alarm description, which will be replaced by the tag inherited data (Of the tag) from the tags database.

You can use a custom alarm message body and subject for each alarm. There is also the possibility of using {the alarms} placeholder- holder, which inherited data from the alarm will replace.
