Email Actions
An Email action is an action that will send emails to selected people in
the address book when user-defined events are detected. It is possible
to define multiple email actions so that different people are notified
when different alarms are detected or different people are notified if the
triggering event lasts longer than expected.
By default, an email action is set up to notify all email contacts in the
address book 30 seconds after an event trigger.
The delay setting defines when the first email should be sent, while the
count defines the number of emails to be sent. The interval is the delay
between the sending of additional emails. If the count is set to 1, the
interval time is ignored as only one email will be sent.
To add an action, click the [+] button to activate a row and enter the

deleted and then click the [-] button and confirm the deletion and then

SNMP Set OID Actions
An SNMP Set OID action allows for the SNMPWEBCARD to set an SNMP
value on another device on the network that will do something or set a
value that the other network device will recognize and take some action
based upon that SNMP value being set. An example of an application
of this action is to have an SNMPWEBCARD in a UPS notify the network
PDU that the UPS is power that the PDU is running on battery power. If
utilizing a Tripp Lite PDU it is possible to execute the shed setting stored
on the PDU to shed (turn off) equipment that is not necessary to extend
the runtime of the UPS.
The OID to set on Tripp Lite PDU for shedding is
OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.850.100.1.8.3.3.0 – type integer and a value of 1
The OID to set on Tripp Lite PDU for ramping is
Clear OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.850.100.1.8.3.2.0 –type integer value of 1
