Chapter 4 Provisioning the TimeProvider

Provisioning Alarms

Note:

1When the fault is detected, the input is immediately removed from the possible reference list. The fault must be continuously present for the period specified by FLTDELAY before the alarm is set. After the alarm is set, it clears once the input signal is fault-free for the period specified by CLRDELAY.

2Once INPFREQ is set, the alarm clears when the input frequency is within the defined pull-in range

Sample Command

SET-ATTR::SYS:TS1000::ELEVTIME=ENABLE;

This command allows alarms to automatically escalate to the next higher alarm level after the time period specified in the FLTDELAY keyword has elapsed (see Provisioning System-Level Alarms, on page 130, for more details).

Sample Command

SET-ATTR::SYS:TS1000::EXPFAIL=NA;

This command disables the Expansion Fail alarm that occurs if you are not using an Expansion Panel with the TimeProvider.

Provisioning System-Level Alarms

You use the ED-SYNC command to provision system-level alarms. The CLRDELAY and FLTDELAY parameters are system-wide; the parameters cannot be set for individual alarms.

ED-SYNC:[<tid>]:<aid>:[<ctag>]::<keyword>=<value>;

This command has a default access level of ADMIN.

<aid>	<keyword>	<value>	Description	Default value
SYS	CLRDELAY	0 to 1000 s	Sets the time delay to	10 s
			declare a valid input after
			an alarm condition clears
	FLTDELAY	1 to 15 s	Sets the time delay before a	5 s
			fault is declared due to
			LOS, AIS, or OOF alarms
