Figure 6: Alert List Screen Example
The Alarm Delay feature can be used to delay alert notifications until a device
or sensor has exceeded its specified Threshold Value for a specified number
of intervals. For example, if a device’s Monitoring Interval is 5 minutes and the
Alarm Delay is set to 3, an alert will be sent out after the sensor has remained
outside its assigned Threshold Value for 3*5=15 minutes.
When viewing the alert on the Alert List Screen, the Alarm Delay column will
show two numbers separated by a slash (/) symbol. The first, left-most
number is the actual number of consecutive readings that have remained
outside the assigned Threshold Value. The second, right-most number is the
specified Alarm Delay, i.e., the number of consecutive readings outside the
assigned Threshold Value that would trigger an alert notification.
The default Alarm Delay setting for any sensor or device is 1.
