The document describes a fiber optic monitoring unit, and says the following:
§ le module 910450 proposant une **remontée** d’alarmes pertinentes et les fonctions d’aide à la mise en service et à la maintenance de XXX
My attempt:
§ the 910450 unit offering an **assortment** of related alarms and help functions for installation and maintenance of XXX.

transfer
In the documents I work on for a particular client, "remontée d'alarmes" is always "alarm transfer". It has the same meaning as Jock's answer.
