nition time, and if the channel is enabled, an alarm will be tripped.

Wait (Recognition) Time: This is the time required for a fault condition to qualify as an alarm event. The sensor/channel
must remain beyond the limits or in a fault condition continuously for this entire period of time in order to become an
alarm.
Reset Time: This is the time allowed for an acknowledged alarm’s fault condition to be corrected before the IMS-4000 resets
(reactivates) the alarm and begins the message delivery process all over again. The minimum reset time is 30 minutes.
Alarm on Return to Normal: This feature makes the unit send a message (or messages) when a condition has moved within
its programmed alarm limits or has gone from an alarm state to a Normal state. The person who acknowledged the alarm—
in addition to all Inform Only contacts in the alarm class—will receive the message.
SNMP Trap Level: When sending alarm messages via SNMP, this sets the priority of the SNMP trap. The choices are Major
or Minor.

to a device. Cycling will switch an outlet OFF for 10 seconds and then switch it back ON. To set up a PowerGate, click the
