• 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.
Log Events
iControl maintains a log of alarm events associated with the card. The log is useful for troubleshooting and identifying event
sequences. Click in the checkbox to enable logging of alarm events for each individual alarm.
At the bottom of the window are several other controls:
Overall Alarm and GSM Contribution follow card LED
Click in the checkbox to force the Overall alarm and GSM
contribution to be identical to the Card LED status
•
All Overall alarms and GSM contributions for which there is a
Card LED alarm will be forced to match the Card LED alarm
•
All Overall Alarms and GSM contributions for which there is
no Card LED alarm will be forced to Disabled
A warning box will open allowing you to confirm the action, since it
will result in changes to the configuration and there is no undo
function.
