You can use the pages 3 to 22 of the Alarm Reporting Options to group trunk groups and to administer a collective alarm reporting strategy. For example, the Trunk group alarm options page shows the first 100 trunk groups by number.

Trunk groups 51-75 are assigned to Alarm Group 3: Major on-board alarms report as-is to the Alarm Log, and minor alarms report as warning alarms (On-board Trunk Alarms (Alarm Group 3) field in Set options form). Both major and minor off-board alarms are downgraded to warning alarms.
Trunk groups 76-100 are assigned to Alarm Group 4: Major on-board alarms are not reported to the Alarm Log, and minor alarms report as warning alarms (On-board Trunk Alarms (Alarm Group 4) field in Set options form). Both major and minor off-board alarms are downgraded to warning alarms.
