Alarm Parameters
The Alarm Status Table on the Alarm System main page displays the current alarm status. You may also manu-
ally generate an alarm as a test and clear the alarm, the alarm time and the alarm count variables.
•
Alarm ID—The Alarm ID identifies the alarm numerically. (For example, Alarm ID #2 identifies the alarm
named “Box: Power Supply I Failed.” )
•
Alarm Name—The alarm items are grouped into three categories: Box, WAN, and mDSL alarms. The Box
alarm group contains the alarms “Over Temperature” and “Power Supply Fail” for each of the two power
supplies. The WAN alarm group includes yellow and red alarms. The mDSL alarm group has Line Down,
Bit Error, and Hardware Failure alarms for each mDSL modem link.
•
Alarm Severity—For each alarm, it shows whether the alarm is disabled or configured to generate a major,
minor, major self-clearing, or minor self-clearing alarm.
•
Time Since Alarm—Elapsed time since the alarm occurred (in seconds).
•
Alarm Count—The number of times this alarm has occurred since it has been cleared. It is also for moni-
toring self-clearing alarms.
•
Generate Alarm—For testing a particular alarm, click on Generate Alarm. This activates the alarm as if the
actual trigger event had occurred.
•
Clear Alarm—Clearing the alarm resets the alarm, resets Time Since Alarm to 0.00 seconds and resets
Alarm Count to 0 (zero).
