Fault Timeout
Fault Timeout controls the delay before fault actions are performed.
The fault timeout period begins when the transmitter detects an alert condition.
• During the fault timeout period, the transmitter continues to report its last valid measurements.
• If the fault timeout period expires while the alert is still active, the fault actions are performed.
• If the alert condition clears before the fault timeout expires, no fault actions are performed.
Restriction
• Fault Timeout is not applied to all alerts. For some alerts, fault actions are performed as soon as the alert
condition is detected. See the list of alerts and conditions for details.
• Fault Timeout is applicable only when Alert Severity = Failure. For all other settings of Alert Severity ,
Fault Timeout is irrelevant.
Procedure
Set Fault Timeout as desired.
• Default: 0 seconds
• Range: 0 to 60 seconds
If you set Fault Timeout to 0, fault actions are performed as soon as the alert condition is detected.
