7.1 Alarm Configuration
1. For alarm configurations, scroll down to the
Alarm Cfg
parameter section.
2. On the
Alarm Cfg
parameter section, click the
arrow beside the name of the parameter to
configure other settings for alarming.
• Alarm descriptions can be overridden from this
page. Enter the name of each application alarm you
wish to appear in the alarm log. If no name has been
entered, the default alarm message will display in
the alarm log.
• Each alarm type (urgency level) can be categorized
as
Non-Critical
,
Critical
, or
Notice
(the least
urgent).
• Each alarm category (where it is categorized in the
Site Supervisor) can be set under the
Category
field:
Refrigeration
,
HVAC
,
Lighting
,
Energy
, or
Other
.
• Set the repeat time for the alarm on the
Repeat
Rate
field, which is the time the advisory is next
scheduled to repeat if not acknowledged. A
repeated advisory will re-queue to the system as if it
had just been generated. However, it will not create
a new instance; it will only update the existing
instance with the next repeat time. All other
processing and propagation will act as a new
instance of an advisory.
• Set the
Monitor Alarm
field to
ON
(if the alarm
will go to the call center for monitoring) or
OFF
(for no call center monitoring).
3. Once configurations have been set, select
Save
on the upper right side of the screen.
