When Application Server 1 (AS1) starts up, its Densité Manager service will discover the
enabled Alarm publication lookup table on AS2 automatically, and begin publishing to the
GSM on AS2, because they are on the same subnet. In order to have the Densité Manager
publish to the GSM on AS4, you must include one of the following in the Alarm publication
lookup table of AS1:
• the IP address of AS4, in which case the Densité Manager will publish to GSMs on AS2
and AS4
• the IP address of AS3, in which case the Densité Manager will publish to the GSM on AS2
and any other GSM on subnet 10.10.04 that is registered in the lookup service on AS3
GPI-1501 I/O Module (Densité Card)
The GPI-1501 is a 2RU Densité card that provides 20 dedicated GPI (General Purpose Interface)
inputs plus eight terminals that can be individually configured as either a GPI input or
GPI output. When paired with an iControl Application Server, the GPI-1501 provides alarm
aggregation from older devices that do not offer Ethernet port connectivity. The Application
Server can report alarm status information to operators via iControl or SNMP. It can also trigger
external events, such as selecting an alternate source.
In iControl, you can configure GPI outputs to respond to alarms triggered on another card on
the network.
