Alarms 

Each output stage has its individual alarm counter and GPI output. Any error will become an 

alarm if the corresponding GPI is enabled. Each GPI can individually be enabled or disabled 

by configuration. 

If GPI is enabled, an error will lead to the following alarms: 

At the status monitor  

 

The  “

total  number  of  alarms

”  counter  shows  the  sum  of  all  individual  alarms.  A  count 

value  of  >  0  indicates  that  at  least  one  alarm  has  been  raised.  Maximum  value  = 

65,535. 

 

Each output stage has its individual alarm counter. Maximum value = 65,535. 

 

GPI output: The corresponding GPI becomes active. 

RUB1 modules, i.e. modules plugged to an H1, D1, Q1, S1, or T1 chassis 

 

The lamp/key in the “Fail/Counter Clear “ function lights up as long as the “

total number 

of alarms

” counter has a 

count value > 0. 

Depending on configuration an SNMP trap can be sent: 

System Failure

. Please notice section 

SNMP Traps

 below. 

SNMP Traps 

SNMP functionality for a RUBIDIUM system requires the installation of the 

RUB IE

 module with 

option 

S

 (SNMP). 

Utilizing  one  of  the  configuration  tools,  SNMP  traps  can  be  enabled  and  disabled  at  the 

System

 

page  (please  refer  to  chapter  “’System’:  Identification,  Reset,  SNMP,  Fan  Control”). 

The “Any Trap” checkbox in general controls th

e SNMP traps functionality. Furthermore, there 

are checkboxes corresponding to the different types of traps. 

Recommended configuration: Check the “Any Trap” and “System Failure” checkboxes.

 

The 

Changeover

 and 

Signal Failur

e traps belong to a certain output stage. These traps contain 

the  corresponding  number.  Utilizing  one  of  the  configuration  tools,  these  traps  can  be 

disabled  individually  be  checking  the  corresponding  “disable”  checkbox  at  the 

Distribution

 

page. 

Changeover 

Check the “Changeover“ checkbox

 

This trap indicates any automatic or manual switching of a relay. This trap includes the 

number of the output channel and the kind of switching. Each channel can have this trap 

feature disabled.  

System Error 

Check the “S

ystem Error

“ checkbox

 

Active, as lon

g as the “

total number of errors

” count

er has a count value > 0. 

This trap feature becomes active in any event of an error. This trap will be repeated in 

an 8 hours interval as long as the alarm condition is present.
