3.5.15 Alarm Configuration
This panel allows the alarm reporting of the DEC-
1023 to be configured. The panel opens in a new
window when the button is clicked, and can be
resized if needed.
The panel is organized in columns.
Status/Name
This contains an expandable tree listing all the
alarms reported by this DEC-1023 card.
• Each alarm name includes an icon that shows
its current status
• Some alarms may be text-only and the alarm
status is shown in the name and not by a
status icon (e.g. Input Format in Fig. 3.25)
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.
