Specifies whether the Alarm Summary object tracks when an alarm's status increases in severity and fires the SeverityIncreased event.
The CheckForSeverityIncrease property must be set in run mode. The value you enter here is not persisted. In other words, when you switch from run mode to configure mode, the value changes back to FALSE (0), which is the default. If you enter TRUE (1) in configure mode, it switches back to FALSE (0) when you enter run mode. You must set this value in run mode.
