CONFIG Commands

High Temperature Alarm Threshold: 80C (176F)

Low Temperature Alarm Threshold: 0C (32F) (Hysteresis value: +/- 5C)

Hysteresis is the amount the temperature must change past the set alert threshold before the alert condition is cleared. For a device with two service ports, hysteresis value is ®xed at ± 5 degrees. For example, if you specify a high-temp-threshold of 75°C, you will get ELS messages from 75 degrees and above. The temperature must go below 70 degrees before the condition is cleared (75 - 5 = 70). If you specify a low-temp-threshold of -10°C, you will get ELS messages from -10 degrees and below. The temperature must move above -5 degrees before you no longer get ELS messages (-10 +5 = -5).

Set: Use the set command to set the high and low temperatures at which the system raises an alarm condition.

Note: The reset temperature level is factory set. You cannot modify it.

recalc-temp-interval

high-temp-threshold degrees_celcius

Sets the high temperature at which you will receive ELS messages before the router resets. The value should be about 10°C less than the maximum (85°C) so that you get some ELS messages before the router resets itself.

low-temp-threshold degrees_celcius

Sets the low temperature at which you will receive ELS messages. The value should be about 10°C more than the minimum (−55°C) so that you get some ELS messages. The router does not reset itself on cold temperatures.

Note: Temperature ranges vary depending on the environment in which you place

the router. Use the environment command described on page 66 to determine your router's natural operating range over time.

recalc-temp-interval seconds

Sets the amount of time between successive temperature readings.

Valid values: 10 to 86400 seconds

Default value: 60

Event

Use the event command to enter the Event Logging System (ELS) environment so that you can de®ne the messages that will appear on the console. Refer to ªChapter 12. Using the Event Logging System (ELS)º on page 147 for information about ELS.
