4.3.9. Status inputs activity monitoring
Similar to Activity Monitoring, except these are dedicated to monitoring the activity on the Status Inputs.
This feature is maintained for legacy compatibility purposes.
The Activity Monitoring (1G1...) function can also be used
in place of this (1T1...) function.
The Activity Monitoring is a feature of the Status inputs that uses built-in timers to monitor for activity that is too long, inactivity
that is too long, or simply to count and log the cumulative activity time on an input. Useful to monitor things like generator
tests, compressor duty cycle and other time-critical parameters.
1 – ID
ID of the selected input. Select from the drop-down menu.
2 – I/O DESCRIPTION RETRIEVAL
Click to retrieve and display the current normal description of that ID. Normally hidden to minimize data transfers
on low speed or high fee data connections.
3 – ACTION TYPE
Selects the action type that will happen when an out-of-limit condition occurs. 3 types are available: Major alarm,
Minor alarm, and Command (CMD). On CMD, no alarm will be triggered. Use this Action when you want to take
actions without triggering any alarms.
4 – QUALIFIER
Qualifying element (operand) which can be any input, output, flag, timer, SNMP GET, Logic Gate, etc. Essentially
any ID in the Cortex can be used to mute or unmute the input to prevent it from taking any action. When the Qualifier
is active, the input will be monitored and be able to generate alarms. When the qualifier is non-active (or normal),
the input will be muted and it will not be able to generate an alarm. To invert the Qualifier’s level, simply put a ! in
front of its ID. For example, use !1D01 to invert it. Leave the Qualifier field blank for a “don’t care” condition.
