Alarm Configuration

7.5. The Power Cycle Alarm

The Power Cycle Alarm can provide notification when input power to the AFS-16 unit is lost and then restored. When the power supply is lost and then restored, the AFS-16 can provide notification via Email, Syslog Message or SNMP Trap.

To configure the Power Cycle Alarm, you must access the AFS-16 command mode using a password that permits Administrator Level commands. The Power Cycle Alarm configuration menu offers the following parameters:

Trigger Enable: Enables/Disables the trigger for this alarm. When Disabled, this alarm will be suppressed. (Default = On.)

Email Message: Enables/Disables email notification for this alarm. (Default = On.)

Note: If either of the "Copy to All Triggers" options is selected, then email notification for other alarms will be switched On or Off as indicated by this parameter.

Address 1, 2, and 3: These parameters are used to select which of the three email addresses defined via the "Email Messages" menu (see Section 5.9.11) will receive the email alarm notification messages generated by this alarm.

The Address parameters can be used to select one, or any combination of the addresses defined via the Email Messages menu. (Default = All On.)

Note: If Email addresses have been previously specified, then the text under the parameters will list the current, user defined email addresses.

Subject: This parameter is used to define the text that will appear in the "Subject" field for all email notification messages generated by this alarm. (Default = "Alarm: Power Cycle")
