Alarms
The AES-3981 provides a default list of 6 alarms. ( Table 3-2 on page 26
lists the major and minor alarms, and their descriptions.) You can
disable any alarm by modifying the
Alarms parameters in the Setup
section.
When you select
Alarms , all of the active alarms are visible in the
display, below Config (Configurations). If no alarms are active, only
Config appears.
Alarm Synchronization
Alarm synchronization is available for this module if your NEO frame
contains a 3901RES-E resource module that supports the feature. When
active, alarm synchronization ensures that the alarm configuration
settings of card-edge controls and the CCS control software and control
panels are consistent.
If the AES-3981 module is set for local control, the alarm settings will
appear the same at both the card edge and via CCS, but the settings can
only be changed using the card-edge controls. If the module is set for
remote control, the alarm settings can be changed via both the card edge
and CCS control software and control panels. Alarm configuration
settings undergo DejaView (state recovery) automatically. This means
that when a module is hot-swapped, the alarm configuration for the new
module is updated to the settings of the module that was previously in
that slot. See
“State Recovery Parameter Availability” on page 26 for
more information.
