sc.SetAlert Help as it doesn't seem to make sense?

Dear Support Board

I've just been working through some examples of simple ACSIL alerts but when I apply them I'm not getting the expected results.

To keep things as simple as possible the alert studies are based on the default SC Donchian Channels, however, despite this being a simple test the outcome is not as expected. Obviously I'm making a basic error.

I've set two different alert types and wanted to obtain an alert on crossing the highest/lowest from inside the channels using different methods.

Any help would be appreciated.

More testing and to the best of my knowledge I've followed Sierra Charts ACSIL instructions/example almost exactly - but still not working.

This code will not even compile:
sc.PlaySoundW(HighestHighAlert.GetAlertSoundNumber() -1, "Highest High Alert"); //
You certainly did not get that from any Sierra Chart source. You cannot have the W after sound.

And here is the documentation for sc.SetAlert which is extensive:
sc.SetAlert()
