received.
OR Events
Available Events

Event
AND Events
Available Events

Event
Smart Alert Configuration
Logical Function
Logical function to be applied to the output of the logical status of the OR and AND lists to
determine when a Smart Alert should be generated.
Options include OR, AND, XOR, NOR and NAND
Delay
The amount of time the Smart Alert Event status must be in an alert condition before a Smart
Alert message is triggered. This provides some protection against false alarms. The Delay
value can be set for 0-999 seconds or minutes.
Smart Alert Notifications
Group
Assign the Smart Alert to any group 1 -8 (see also page 39)
Notify Again Time
Enter the amount of time in seconds, minutes, or hours (1-999) before an alert message will be
repeated
Notify on Return to Normal
The user can also be notified when the Smart Alert conditions have returned to the normal (non-
triggered state) by selecting the "Notify when return to normal" box.
Auto Acknowledge
Place a checkmark in this box to have alert notifications in the summary page return to normal
state automatically when Smart Alert conditions return to normal.
Enable Syslog Alerts
Place a checkmark in this box to have alert notifications sent via Syslog messages
Enable SNMP traps
Place a checkmark in this box to have alert notifications sent via SNMP traps (v2c)
Enable Email Alerts
Place a checkmark in this box to have alert notifications sent via Email
Email Subject
Enter the subject to be viewed when an email alert message is received
Attach IP Camera capture to
email
Associate a Smart Alert with an IP camera. Select an IP camera from the drop-down box. An
image will be captured and sent with the alert message when an alert is sent via e-mail. IP
cameras that are monitored by the ENVIROMUX (page 31) will be available for this purpose.
Note: To be able to send IP camera captures as e-mail attachments, viewer security (in
your camera’s configuration) needs to be disabled. Consult your IP camera manual to
see if this feature is present and for instructions on how to do this.
Enable SMS Alerts
Place a checkmark in this box to have alert notifications sent via SMS messages (requires a
modem)
Smart Alert Command
Associated Output Relay
Associate the Smart Alert with the operation of the output relay, or not
Note: Only one sensor or Smart Alert should be associated with the Output Relay at a
time. Contradicting commands from two or more sensors or Smart Alerts will result in
the output relay responding to the state directed by the last command received.
Output Relay Status on Alert
State the output relay will be in when a Smart Alert is triggered
Output Relay Status on Return
from Alert
State the output relay will be in when a Smart Alert is no longer being triggered
More on Logical Functions
Using Logical Functions, you can select how to use or not use the reported state of an Event. You can combine the information
from multiple Events to achieve an end result.
