EMS User Manual-v2.0.0
Configuration of Device Alarms (Notifications)
Notifications are triggered from the BRH Device under deviation from expected behaviors. These
notifications are displayed in the EMS as Alarms. Alarms provide a window into the health of a given BRH
Device as well as across several BRH devices across the network.
Alarms that will be generated are system defined and are captured in the table below. Actions that can be
taken as well as severity level of a given alarm are user configurable. This allows EMS Owner to customize
actions that can be performed as per the requirements of a particular installation. The configuration is
system wide and applies to ALL devices. In the current version of the EMS, creation of User Defined Alarm
Configurations (for the alarm sources that are not yet supported by the system) is not supported. Instead, a
flexible mechanism that allows configuring Severity/Automatic acknowledgement of alarms etc. is provided.
This section provides an overview of this configuration. Discussed below are the default severity levels for
the alarms. Actual values may be changed by the Owner and what is reflected in the page is current settings
of the alarm severities.`
