After studying the ABS Ergonomics Guide regarding alarms the only thing 
I had to change was blinking of the visual alarms upon activation and 
changing to a steady light upon acknowledgement.  The SCM has multiple 
alarms however and the ABS guide is silent regarding whether the 
blinking of multiple alarms should be in resonance (all blinking 
together at the same time) or randomly based upon when the alarm was 
set.  The random method certainly gets your attention when multiple 
alarms go off but I think the resonance method might allow better 
processing of which alarm to tackle first in the case of multiple 
alarms.  Any thoughts.
