Alarms

These status lines display the selected elements current network /DTE signal alarm
state. Alarms are determined by the following user-selectable thresholds.

(alarm status):

The main body of the Alarms screen displays the current count for parameters that
may be used to trigger an alarm. The Current column shows the total of the
preceding 15 one-minute intervals. At the end of each one-minute interval, the
oldest minute of the 15 -minute interval is discarded.

The Threshold column shows the values set in the Alarm Configuration screen
(Figure 4-10 on page 4 -17). Any parameter that has a current value equal to or
greater than its non-zero threshold generates an alarm. Any parameter with a
threshold value of 0 is disabled from generating alarms.

The parameters shown on the Alarms Screen are updated at five-second intervals.
