Config Worksheet

Table 3-7: Config worksheet contents
Key Description
blinkWhenUnacknowledged Default value is
NO.
Setting this value to
YES causes new alarms to blink in the monitoring application
page.
Operator has to acknowledge individual alarms to stop the blinking.
If ackAudibleAlarm is enabled, the operator can click Acknowledge to
acknowledge all alarms at once.
ackAudibleAlarm Default
YES value causes an audible alarm (chime) to activate when a new alarm
comes in, and allows operators to temporarily mute the chime, by clicking
Acknowledge. When another alarm comes in, the audible alarm will be re-
activated.
Click Mute to mute the audible alarm and prevent it from being re-activated
automatically (until you decide otherwise by clicking Unmute sound).
Set ackAudibleAlarm to
NO to disable the audible alarm, and hide both the
Acknowledge and Mute/Unmute sound buttons.
alternateGroupLabel The Channel Selector can be sorted on the basis of some
criteria, including logical groups defined in the Services
worksheet and referred to as Logical group in the context of
the Channel Selector’s sort menu. The alternate label you
can provide here will appear in the Channel Selector’s sort
menu to designate an additional set of groups, also defined
in the Services worksheet (see "Services Worksheet", on
page 99).
Default value is
TS (i.e. transport stream).
--- EMBEDDED WEB PAGES ---
In the Embedded Web Pages area, you can define and configure up to two custom Application Selector buttons linked to
Web pages or iC Web pages.
To configure a button, remove the asterisks at the beginning of the corresponding rows
(the set of four rows that start with either
browserButton0 or browserButton1), and type
the desired values for the four parameters (the parameters for the first button are
described below; the other button is configured in the same fashion).
A custom button is added to the application Selector, only if the associated URL or MPF
file path is specified.
browserButton0_url The address of a Web page (URL) or iC Web page (path to MPF file, relative to
EDGE/Web_pages).
For example:
http://www.miranda.com.
browserButton0_title The label of the button (
Miranda by default).
browserButton0_image Unselected button image (URL, or path to image file, relative to
EDGE/Web_pages).
browserButton0_selectedImage Selected button image (URL, or path to image file, relative to
EDGE/Web_pages).
--- EMAIL NOTIFICATION ---
In the E-mail Notification area, you can identify the outgoing SMTP mail server and e-mail recipients of overall service
alarm notifications.
smtpServer The DNS of the mail server.
Mandatory when e-mail notification is enabled.
