Chapter 5 - Programming Data Alarms 

 

Manual Rev. 1.01 

Page 37

 

Creating an Alarm 

A necessary part of configuring a Data Alarm Monitor is entering the alarm equation.  Now that 
the fields are laid out, the scene is set for defining the actual alarm equation and then testing the 
alarm. 

1.  Proceed to the Data Alarm Settings menu. 
2.  Select the first empty alarm field. 
3.  Select Alarm Name and enter an appropriate name for this Data Alarm.  The name entered is 

most beneficial if descriptive of the particular data portion monitored for alarms. 

4.  Select Alarm Equation and enter the following: 

Test_Field = “Sesame” 

5.  Toggle Alarm Enable to ON.  Once enabled, the DL50 will immediately begin to monitor 

serial ports for alarm data. 

6.  Select Actions and enter T1 (make sure you have network settings and a trap manager 

configured for T1).  If there is no SNMP manager available, use a pager (P1). 

7.  Connect to an I/O port that has been configured to monitor for alarm data and type "Sesame". 
8.  Check your trap manager for the notification trap!
