Parameters
Description
Parameter can be any site application value important for monitor and display on Operator Console (data type
Double). It can be for example room temperature, lamplife of projector, etc.
All parameters are defined by properties of driver CSMDataProvider (monitored site CVC project) and
information about parameters and their values are displayed on Operator Console.
Parameter Properties
Name
This is name of the parameter and it is displayed on Operator Console. For example “Lamplife“, “Room
Temperature“.
Unit
This is name of the parameter unit and it is displayed on Operator Console. For example “hour”, “ o C“.
Threshold Value
The Threshold Value is the value for which this Parameter is considered to trigger Threshold Action. It is used
together with Threshold Operator.
Threshold Operator
This is condition for comparison of Parameter And Threshold Value. If this condition is reached, the
Threshold Action is triggered.
Following operators are available
▪ Less Then means if Parameter < Threshold Value then Threshold Action is triggered
▪ Less Then Or Equal To means if Parameter <= Threshold Value then Threshold Action is triggered
▪ Greater Then means if Parameter > Threshold Value then Threshold Action is triggered
▪ Greater Then Or Equal To means if Parameter >= Threshold Value then Threshold Action is triggered
▪ Equal To means if Parameter = Threshold Value then Threshold Action is triggered
▪ Not Equal To means if Parameter <> Threshold Value then Threshold Action is triggered
Threshold Action
The Threshold Action is triggered if threshold condition is spent (parameter value is out of range).
Following Threshold Actions displayed on Operator Console are available
▪ Security Alert indicates that there is some security problem. For example loosing of communication
with projector can indicate them.
▪ Help Request indicates request of site stuff for help. It is typically used for user interaction with
operator via Operator Console.
▪ Service Request indicates needs for service intervention. For example projector lamplife is exceeded.
▪ Maintenance Request indicates request of site stuff for maintenance. For example too high temperature
of projector can indicates need for dust filter cleaning.
All actions described above are also automatically written to log file and every action sends e-mail. For e-mail
functions see section Central Station Configuration.
In case of necessity all these actions can be triggered without change of parameter value using driver
functions. In that case actions are called User Security Alert, User Help Request, User Service Request and
User Maintenance Request.
