Operation Manual

This table allows up to 8 alarms to be configured, as follows:

 PID: Enter the desired PID value to be monitored. This field accepts both decimal and

hexadecimal entries. For example, the PID value 256 can be entered either as 256 or as

0x100.

 Trigger (s): Enter the desired timeout for the PID, in seconds. If the PID disappears for

a period of time greater than what is configured in this field, the alarm is raised.

 Enable: Check this box to enable the alarm. If the PID is not actually present in the

stream, the alarm will only be raised when the elapsed time from the enable moment

exceeds the trigger.

 Elapsed (s): This field indicates the number of seconds since the PID in this alarm was

last seen. It is only active if the alarm is enabled. In the example above, PID 0x100 is

present, but PID 300 has not been seen in 15 seconds.

 Alarm: This field contains the alarm state for the entry, as follows:

o Off: This alarm is disabled.

o OK: The alarm is enabled, and the PID was last seen within the trigger period.

o Alarm: The PID has not been seen for a period of time that exceeds the

configurable trigger. The actual time is displayed in the Elapsed field.

Monitoring Status Tab
