DVLD User Manual
7.1 Hands-off setup
In this philosophy of operation, you set the Distance Trigger to a value that you think will be at
the limit for safe operation of your site (say 5 or 10 km). Once a reading has breached this
distance, the Davicom is configured to automatically take action at the site and shut things down.
This can be done by passing the LD01 flag through a Virtual Logic Gate (VLG) and controlling a
relay as shown in the screen shot below.
For DV-Mini or DV-2-8/216 units, the control could also take the form of sending an SNMP trap
or performing an SNMP SET.
If you wish, the Davicom can also be configured to send an alarm when the Distance Trigger
event occurs, in addition to the local control commands. The example below shows an e-mail
address configured as an alarm destination.
