Setting Up Measurements 61
Supported alarms with the Enpac Ex
This list describes alarms the Enpac Ex supports, alarms it does not support,
and substitutes for some of the unsupported alarms.
• The Enpac Ex supports above, below, in window, and out of window
magnitude alarms for magnitude and numeric measurements.
• You cannot select a magnitude out of window alarm in Emonitor. You
must create one by combining an above and a below alarm for the same
measurement definition. Emonitor creates an out of window alarm
when it builds the load file if both alarms are active.
• The Enpac Ex does not support spectrum (narrowband) alarms for
spectrum measurements. You can still set up spectrum alarms with
spectrum measurement definitions. Emonitor tests the measurements
against the alarms after you unload the data.
For unsupported alarms, Emonitor tests the measurements against the alarms
when you unload the data collector. This means that Emonitor always
accurately indicates when a measurement is in alarm, regardless of the number
or complexity of the alarm(s). This is true for all active alarms, regardless of
their trigger status.
Lists and the Data Collector
Emonitor and the Enpac Ex support loading lists of measurement definitions
to the data collector.
Inspection Codes and the Data Collector
Emonitor and the Enpac Ex support loading inspection codes to the data
collector.
Inspection code support in the Enpac Ex
• You can load inspection codes into the Enpac Ex only with a list.
• You can use only the inspection codes loaded with the list with
measurements in that list. This includes both measurements in a list and
unscheduled measurements associated with that list.
• You can load up to 100 inspection codes into the Enpac Ex. Emonitor
numbers the inspection codes from 1-100. The Enpac Ex numbers the
inspection codes from 00-99.
• The Enpac Ex displays the first 16 characters of each inspection code.
