To save the changes made to an alarm's configuration, use the APPLY button located to the top right of the screen. The alarm's configuration is immediately updated.

The Reset button located next to the APPLY button is used to revert any changes that you have made to the alarm's configuration. The previous settings are restored. This action is different from the Revert to default settings action, where the alarm's default configuration is restored.
