# Adding Alarms

To add a new alarm, within the Alarm Editor, simply start typing the name of the alarm into the empty row at the bottom of the table. Alternatively, click the Copy button, which creates a copy of the selected alarm and its properties.

Note: The expression must evaluate to a Boolean value; the alarm will be active when the expression evaluates to true.
Tip: Pressing the Plus button will automatically scroll to the bottom of the table and allows immediate typing.
