Using Auto Warning

Since industrial Ethernet devices are often located at the endpoints of a system, such devices cannot always know what is happening elsewhere on the network. This means that an industrial Ethernet switch that connects these devices must provide system maintainers with real-time alarm messages. Even when control engineers are out of the control room for an extended period of time, they can still be informed of the status of devices almost instantaneously when exceptions occur. MOXA EtherDevice Switch supports different approaches to warn engineers automatically, such as email and relay output. It also supports two digital inputs to integrate sensors into your system to automate alarms by email and relay output.

Configuring Email Warning

The Auto Email Warning function uses e-mail to alert the user when certain user-configured events take place.

There are three basic steps required to set up the Auto Warning function:

1.Configuring Email Event Types

Select the desired Event types from the Console or Web Browser Event type page. (A description of each event type is given later in the Email Alarm Events setting subsection.)
