3.4.5 The Alarms panel
This panel includes only the Alarm Config button. Click on the
button to open the Alarm Configuration for ADC-1722 window.
The window is organized in columns.
Status/Name
This contains an expandable tree listing all the alarms reported by
this ADC-1722 card.
• Each alarm name includes an icon that shows its current
status
The Overall alarm and GSM contribution columns contain
pulldown lists that allow the level of contribution of each individual
alarm to the alarm named in the column heading to be set.
• If there is no arrowhead in the box, there is no pulldown and
the alarm is not user-configurable
• Overall Alarm
This column allows configuration of the contribution of each
individual alarm to the Overall Alarm associated with this card.
The Overall Alarm is shown in the upper left corner of the
iControl panel, and also appears at the bottom of the
Status/Name column.
• GSM Contribution
This column allows configuration of the
contribution of each individual alarm to the
GSM Alarm Status associated with this card.
GSM is a dynamic register of all iControl
system alarms, and is also an alarm provider
for external applications. The possible values
for this contribution are related to the Overall
alarm contribution:
• If the Overall alarm contribution is
selected as Disabled, the GSM alarm
contribution can be set to any available
value
• If the Overall alarm contribution is
selected as any level other than disabled,
the GSM contribution is forced to follow
the Overall Alarm.
