- (3) Redial interval (secs.)
(Default = 30 sec.)
If the MN Converter dials a notification contact but the contact telephone does not answer, the
converter redials the number for the number of times specified in "
(4) Number of redials
" below.
In this setting, specify a period between 30 and 99 seconds in 1-second increments as the interval
between redials.
- (4) Number of redials (times)
(Default = 3 times)
Set a number between 0 and 10 as the number of redials when the MN Converter dials a notification
contact but the contact telephone does not answer.
If you set this number to 0, the converter does not redial the number.
- (5) Redial again
(Default = Not selected)
If you tick this option, when the MN Converter redials a number for the number of times specified in
"(4) Number of redials
" and there is still no reply, the converter again attempts to report the same
notification data after the period specified in
"(1) Minimum reporting period
" has passed.
It repeats this process until notification succeeds.
If this option is not ticked and redialing fails to establish contact, the result is stored in the error report
log as a failure and that notification process ends. If this option is ticked, the result is not logged as a
failure and notification is retried.
- (6) Server/Tool
(Default = Server)
Choose whether the software running on the remote monitoring PC connected to the notification
contact is the dedicated server software or another software tool.
Server
------------ The MN Converter waits until it receives a "REP" character string from the remote
monitoring PC in response to a notification.
If "REP" is received, the notification result is stored in the MN Converter's Report log
as a success.
If no response is received after a set time, the notification result is stored in the MN
Converter's Report log as a failure.
Tool
-----------
Without waiting for a response from the remote monitoring PC, the MN Converter
stores the notification result in its Report log as a success when the notification from
the MN Converter is completed.
When a notification test is run, this setting is also used to identify the notification contact and determine
whether notification was a success or a failure.
- (7) Response timeout (secs.)
(Default = 10 sec.)
When "
Server
" is selected in "
(6) Server/Tool
" above, use this setting to specify a period between 10
and 60 seconds in 1-second increments as the time for which the MN Converter waits for a "REP"
response from the server.
When "
Tool
" is selected, this setting is disabled.
- (8) Number of the data retransmission (times)
(Default = 5 times)
When "
Server
" is selected in "
(6) Server/Tool
" above and no "REP" response is received from the
server in the time set in "
(7) Response timeout
" above, use this setting to specify a number between
0 and 10 as the number of times the MN Converter retries server notification.
If you set this number to 0, the MN Converter does not retry notification.
