Alarms
The NSM-7×2AES provides a default list of 13 alarms; the
NSM-8×1AES provides a default list of 13 alarms. 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 NSM-8×1AES/NSM-7×2AES 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 39
for more information.
