Configuring parameters
The MMI has been designed with default settings so that no configuration is
necessary. However, it can be configured based on the call environment.
Set Time
Before beginning to configure the MMI, login to the system and verify the
current time. Do this by entering the Set Time (S T) command. The
MMI displays the time it has registered. Enter a new time or hit Enter to
leave it unchanged. The time is entered in the “hh:mm:ss,” the 24-hour, or
military, format.
Set Date
Verify the current date. Do this by entering the Set Date (S D)
command. The MMI then displays the date it has registered. Enter a new date
or hit Enter to leave it unchanged. The date is entered in the “mm/dd/yy”
format.
Set Alarm
The Set Alarm (S A) command sets the parameters by which an alarm
is activated and the duration of the alarm after it is activated. There are three
alarm levels as described below:
• Alarm Level 0 (AL0) consists of activity with an error threshold below
the AL1 setting, which is a satisfactory condition and no alarm is
activated.
• Alarm Level 1 (AL1) consists of activity with an error threshold above
the AL1 setting, but below the AL2 setting that is deemed to be of minor
importance. In this situation, the external alarm hardware is activated by
closing the normally open contact, the RED ALARM LED on the
faceplate lights, and an alarm message is created in the alarm log and the
MMI terminal.
• Alarm Level 2 (AL2) consists of activity with an error threshold above
the AL2 setting which is deemed to be of major importance. In this
situation, the following happens:
— the external alarm hardware is activated by closing the normally
open contact
— the RED ALARM LED on the faceplate lights
