Changing
Mode:
to
Read Only
allows the SiteStreamer™ to be
interrogated by the SNMP Man-
ager, so that SiteStreamer™ set-
tings, metering, RDS/PAD data
and alarms can be read and integrated with other equip-
ment on the network.
With
Mode:
set to
Read & Write
, the SNMP Manager can send
commands to the SiteStreamer™. Other equipment can
then change the station and adjust other setup parameters.
SNMP ‘Communities’ serve as passwords for this function.
Go into the
Read Community:
and
Write Community:
boxes to
enter text that is specified for the read/write strings on the
SNMP Manager monitoring device. As with similar text-
entry screens, execute a
Save
after entering.
When the SiteStreamer™ initiates an alarm, rather than be-
ing queried or polled for one, the alarm is known as a ‘trap.’
You may enter three local network IP addresses as
Trap Des-
tinations
, each corresponding to other devices on the LAN to
be apprised of alarms.

The default SNMP Ports,
General Port 161
and
Trap Port 162
,
are customary assignments for the majority of SNMP opera-
tions. These may be changed as required by typing-in new
values.
The MIB File
The MIB file is a small text (.txt) file that is read by the net-
work controller (the SNMP Manager). To download and read
this file yourself, click:
Download MIB
.
The MIB file is in
plain text and may be saved in the usual Windows manner,
and read with Windows Notepad.
Email Preferences
Enter the email server settings and email addresses for the
various recipients of email or SMS text messages here on
the
Email Preferences
menu page. These entries determine
‘who gets it and how.’ However, the alarm preferences for
email notifications, or ‘who gets which alarm message’ are
set on the
Alarms and Notifications
menu page. This is de-
scribed with the alarms discussion on Page 23.
This example shows typical setup for an SMTP mail server.
