Status
The Status tab is where you configure your status input channels.
T Ty yp pe e.. In the main Status view, select Pull-Up or Pull-Down
for each channel, depending on the type of output the
monitored device uses. Pull-Up is for equipment that
provides a contact closure to indicate a Low state. Select
Pull-Down if the equipment provides a DC voltage to
indicate a High state.
N Na am me e.. For each status channel, two conditions are possible,
LOW (off) or HIGH (on). Choose names to describe each
condition (such as “Main Filaments ON” for the HIGH state
and “Main Filaments OFF” for the LOW state) and enter
them in the appropriate rows for each channel.
A Alla arrm m.. Use the drop-down menu to choose the type of
alarm you want issued for each condition: Critical, Warning
or None.
C Crriittiiccaall The I/O or Voice Interface unit will use the Site Dialing settings to notify you of the
condition.
W Waarrn niin ng g
Alarms will be registered in the site log and alarm list, but the unit will not call out to report
the condition.
N No on ne e Check none if you do not want to receive alarms for this channel.
E Evve en ntt D De ella ay y.. As with the metering inputs, you can specify a delay for each alarm, programmable to tenths of a
second.
A Accttiio on n.. You can also program the unit to execute a command, run a macro, take a capture or initiate no action
when the status channel is in the corresponding state. Actions can be executed from any I/O unit connected on
the G-Bus network. Fill in the Action fields for the status channels in the same way as you did for your metering
channels.
Note: By default, the LOW status state is represented by a red status indicator, and the HIGH status state is
indicated by a green status indicator. To change these colors, right-click the I/O unit in the Site List and select Edit
Default View. Then click on the color swatch you would like to change. Muted channels always appear in gray.
