Following are descriptions for the categories shown in the Alarm Table:
♦
Owner The entity that configured the entry and is therefore using the
resources assigned to it.
♦
Index An index uniquely identifying an entry in the alarm table. Each
such entry defines a diagnostic sample at a particular interval.
♦
Interval The interval in seconds over which the data is sampled and
compared with the rising and falling thresholds. When setting this vari-
able, care should be taken in the case of Delta sampling – the interval
should be set short enough that the sampled variable is very unlikely to
increase or decrease by more than 2^31
−
1 during a single sampling in-
terval.
♦
Variable The object identifier of the particular variable to be sampled.
♦
Sample Type The method of sampling the selected variable and cal-
culating the value to be compared against the thresholds. If the value of
this object is Absolute, the value of the selected variable will be com-
pared directly with the thresholds at the end of the sampling interval. If
the value of this object is Delta, the value of the selected variable at the
last sample will be subtracted from the current value, and the difference
compared with the thresholds.
