Alarm Conﬁguration

The Threshold ﬁeld allows you to conﬁgure a new threshold for the alarm highlighted in the Alarm Type list.

NOTE

When setting thresholds for ring-level alarms, keep in mind that the TRMMIM is counting all occurrences of the selected variable on the whole ring, not just those occurrences on a single station. Note, too, that ring-level alarms can only be set for non- isolating errors — that is, those that do not pinpoint a speciﬁc trouble spot on the ring.

The Status ﬁeld allows you to enable or disable the alarm highlighted in the

Alarm Type list.

Click on to save any changes you have made to an alarm before

selecting another alarm; click onto exit the window.

Setting a Ring Level Alarm

To set an alarm at the ring level:

1.In the Timebase ﬁeld, enter the amount of time, in seconds, you want the selected variable counted for comparison to your alarm thresholds. Remember, this timebase will apply to all enabled alarms at both the ring and station levels.

2.In the Alarm Type list, click mouse button 1 on the alarm type you wish to conﬁgure.

3.Enter your desired alarm threshold in the Threshold ﬁeld, keeping in mind that ring-level alarms will count all occurrences of the selected variable on the ring as a whole.

4.Enable or Disable the selected alarm type by clicking mouse button 1 in the appropriate Status option.

5.Click mouse button 1 on to save your changes. If you wish to

conﬁgure more than one alarm type, be sure to click onbefore selecting another alarm type, or the changes you made to the ﬁrst alarm will be lost.

Your new alarm status and thresholds will take effect immediately.

Setting and Viewing Station Alarms
