Next, you must select the Alert Type (Connection, Signal, Pattern Match, UPS Power Status,
Environment and Power Sensor or Alarm Sensor) to monitor. You can configure a selection of different
Alert types and any number of specific triggers.
 Connection Alert—This alert will be triggered when a user connects or disconnects from the
applicable Host or Serial Port, or when a Slave connects or disconnects from the applicable UPS
(and you must specify the applicable connections to Apply Alert To).
 Serial Port Signal Alert—This alert will be triggered when the specified signal changes state and
applies to serial ports only. You must specify the particular Signal Type (DSR, DCD or CTS) trigger
condition and the Applicable Ports(s).
 Serial Port Pattern Match Alert—This alert will be triggered if a regular expression is found in
the serial ports character stream that matches the regular expression you enter in the Pattern
field. This alert type will only be applied to serial ports selected as Applicable Ports(s).
