What I did in the past was to set the horn.cfg to toggle a COUT block with =
its
IOMOPT set to 0.  Then I had a program that monitored the state of this
block on anan AW and send a message ever the 2nd ethernet to a remote=20
computer to tell it to make a sound when the bit was true (in alarm), and=
=20
turn off when the sound when it was false (alarm acked). =20

I was doing UNIX -> UNIX, but the concept would be the same
