Relay Alarm Settings
Configuring Relay Warning
The Auto Relay Warning function uses relay output to alert the user when certain user-configured events take
place. There are two basic steps required to set up the Relay Warning function:
1. Configuring Relay Event Types
Select the desired Event types from the Console or Web Browser Event type page (a description of each
event type is given later in the Relay Alarm Events setting subsection).
2. Activate your settings
After completing the configuration procedure, you will need to activate your NPort S8000’s Relay Event
Types.
Event Types can be divided into two basic groups: System Events and Ethernet Port Events. System Events
are related to the overall function of the NPort S8000, whereas Ethernet Port Events are related to the activity
of a specific port.
The NPort S8000 supports two relay outputs. You can configure which relay output is related to which events.
This helps administrators identify the importance of the different events.
Override relay alarm settings
Select this option to override the relay warning setting temporarily. Releasing the relay output will allow
administrators to fix any problems with the warning condition.
