7.9. The Lost Voltage Alarm
The Lost Voltage (Line In) Alarm can provide notification when the power supply to the
RSM-8R unit has been interrupted.
Notes:
• The Lost Voltage (Line In) alarm is only available on RSM-8R units that
include two input power lines (models RSM-8R8-1 and RSM-8R8-2.)
• The Lost Voltage (Line In) alarm will provide notification when one of the
available power supplies is lost or disconnected. This alarm will not function
if all input power to the RSM-8R8 unit is lost. To provide notification when
all input power is lost and restored, please use the Power Cycle Alarm as
described in Section 7.6.
• In order for the RSM-8R8 to provide alarm notification via Email,
communication parameters must first be defined as described in
Section 5.9.11.
• In order for the RSM-8R8 to provide alarm notification via Syslog Message,
Syslog parameters must first be defined and Syslog Messages must be
enabled as described in Section 5.9.2 and Section 11.
• In order for the RSM-8R8 to provide alarm notification via SNMP Trap, SNMP
parameters must first be defined, and SNMP Traps must be enabled as
described in Section 5.9.7 and Section 12.
To configure the Lost Voltage (Line In) Alarm, you must access the RSM-8R8 command
mode using a password that permits Administrator Level commands. The Lost Voltage
Alarm Configuration menu offers the following parameters:
•
Trigger Enable:
Enables/Disables the trigger for this alarm. When Disabled, this
alarm will be suppressed. (Default = On.)
Note:
To cancel an alarm without correcting the condition that caused the
alarm, simply toggle the Trigger Enable parameter Off and then back On again.
•
Resend Delay:
Determines how long the RSM-8R8 will wait to resend an email
message generated by this alarm, when the initial attempt to send the notification
was unsuccessful. (Default = 60 Minutes.)
•
Notify Upon Clear:
When enabled, the RSM-8R8 will send additional notification
when the situation that caused the alarm has been corrected. For example, when
Notify Upon Clear is enabled, the RSM-8R8 will send initial notification when it
detects that one of it's power supplies has been lost or disconnected, and then
send a second notification when it determines that power has been restored.
(Default = On.)
•
Email Message:
Enables/Disables email notification for this alarm. (Default = On.)
Note:
The Email Message parameter offers four different options: On, Off, On
(Copy to All Triggers) or Off (Copy to All Triggers). If either of the "Copy to All
Triggers" options is selected, then email notification for all other alarms will be
switched On or Off as indicated by this parameter. For example, If "Off (Copy
to All Triggers)" is selected, then Email notification will be disabled for all other
alarms too.
