Set IOChannel

trigger

When the trigger condition is met, triggers the specified alarm action. Triggers can be: z Disabled—No alarm settings. This is the default.

z Inactive—When the expected Digital input is active, going inactive will trigger an alarm.

z Active—When the expected Digital input is inactive, going active will trigger an alarm.

clear

Specify Manual to manually clear an alarm. Specify Auto to automatically clear the alarm when the trigger condition changes; for example, if the Trigger is Inactive and the alarm is triggered, once the input becomes active again, the alarm will be cleared when Auto is set. The default is Auto.

syslog

Sends a message to syslog when an alarm is triggered or cleared. The syslog entry includes the severity level and the value that caused the alarm to trigger or clear. The syslog message is associated with Level Critical.

 

snmp

 

Sends an SNMP trap when an alarm is triggered or cleared. The trap consists of the

 

severity level and whether the alarm was triggered or cleared.

 

description

 

Provide a description of the channel, making it easier to identify. The channel

 

description can be up to 20 characters.

The latched status is maintained until it is read. Once it is read, it will revert to the

 

current status. The default is disabled.
