9.1. Configuring Alarms
Alarms can be created for any condition that can be detected
by any single sensor in the TZ network. When an alarm is
triggered, one of several things may happen:
>
The time and date of the occurrence is logged.
>
Dry contact switches can be used to control other devices
through use of the Auxiliary Output pins on the unit.
This functionality is primarily defined through the “Alarm
Config” tab, although some preliminary set-up may be
required in the “Device Config” tab.
If the reading from a particular sensor is to be used for the
alarm, then confirm that the sensor is configured correctly.
For example, if an alarm is required to monitor temperature
– then make sure that a temperature sensor is connected to
the appropriate radial, and as shown in Figure 21 under the
“Device Config” tab the input type of that particular Radial
should be set to Temperature. The name placed in the “Input
Name” will be necessary when defining the alarm – so if
appropriate, it may be changed here as well.
