3.6.3 iSIC Alarms
iSIC alarms are used to change the functionality of the data logger based on parameter inputs,
such as changing sample and log intervals based on a particular logged reading.
To enable an iSIC Alarm:
1. Click the Setup button and go to the iSIC Alarm tab.
2. Place a check in the Enable iSIC Alarm checkbox.
3. Click Add to enable an alarm condition, such as level above 0.20 feet as shown below.
See the description of count in the page above.
4. Click the Edit button and select the alarm type. Options include:
a. For any iSIC type: Changing the sample and log interval
b. For a 3100-iSIC AT&T/Cingular modem: Sending an SMS message or SMTP email
5. When finished setting up the alarm, click Update iSIC to send the configuration to the
data logger.
Note: iSIC alarm conditions are evaluated each sample interval. For example, if a data logger is
set to sample every 60 minutes under normal conditions, and a Change log interval alarm is
selected, it will check the alarm condition every 60 minutes to determine if it should switch to the
different interval.
