Sample Event Rules
Sample PDU-Level Event Rule
In this example, we want the PX3 to record the firmware upgrade failure
in the internal log when it happens.
The event rule involves:

Event: Device > Firmware update failed

Action: System Event Log Action
To create this PDU-level event rule:
1. For an event at the PDU level, select "Device" in the Event field.
2. Select "Firmware update failed" so that the PX3 responds to the
event related to firmware upgrade failure.
3. To make the PX3 record the firmware update failure event in the
internal log, select "System Event Log Action" in the Available
Actions field.
Sample Outlet-Level Event Rule
In this example, we want the PX3 to send SNMP notifications to the
SNMP manager for any sensor change event of outlet 3.
The event rule involves:

Event: Outlet > Outlet 3 > Sensor > Any sub-event

Action: System SNMP Notification Action
To create this outlet-level event rule:
1. For an event at the outlet level, select "Outlet" in the Event field.
2. Select "Outlet 3" because that is the desired outlet.
3. Select "Sensor" to refer to sensor-related events.
4. Select "Any sub-event" to include all events related to all sensors of
this outlet and all thresholds, such as current, voltage, upper critical
threshold, upper warning threshold, lower critical threshold, lower
warning threshold, and so on.
5. To make the PX3 send SNMP notifications, select "System SNMP
Notification Action" in the Available Actions field.
Note: The SNMP notifications may be SNMP v2c or SNMP v3
traps/informs, depending on the settings for the System SNMP
Notification Action. See
Enabling and Configuring SNMP
(on page
357).
Then the SNMP notifications are sent when:

Any numeric sensor's reading enters the warning or critical
range.
