The S-RING open condition generates a sustained relay contact close. The relay will stay closed 
during the period which the S-RING is in OPEN condition. The relay will revert to closed 
position when the S-RING goes to CLOSED position. This information is covered in more 
details in Chapter 11 on S-Ring and Link-Loss-Learn.  
To customize these capabilities, the MNS-6K provides additional software capabilities and 
commands for configuring the behavior. They are 
Syntax alarm – enter the alarm configuration mode 
Syntax add event=<event-id|list|range|all> - enables alarm action in response to the specified event ID
