Alarm Configuration
7.3. The Lost Voltage (Line In) Alarm (RPC-40L8A4 Series Units Only)
The Lost Voltage (Line In) Alarm can provide notification after the power supply to the
RPC-40L8A4 unit has been interrupted.
Notes:
• The Lost Voltage Alarm is not available on RPC-4850 series units.
• The Lost Voltage (Line In) alarm will provide notification when one of the
available power supplies is lost or disconnected. This alarm will not function
if all input power to the RPC-40L8A4 unit is lost. To provide notification when
all input power is lost and restored, please use the Power Cycle Alarm as
described in Section 7.6.
• In order for the RPC-40L8A4 to provide alarm notification via Email,
communication parameters must first be defined as described in
Section 5.9.11.
• In order for the RPC-40L8A4 to provide alarm notification via Syslog
Message, Syslog parameters must first be defined and Syslog Messages
must be enabled as described in Section 5.9.2 and Section 11.
• In order for the RPC-40L8A4 to provide alarm notification via SNMP Trap,
SNMP parameters must first be defined, and SNMP Traps must be enabled
as described in Section 5.9.7 and Section 12.
To configure the Lost Voltage (Line In) Alarm, you must access the RPC-40L8A4
command mode using a password that permits Administrator Level commands. The
Lost Voltage Alarm Configuration menu offers the following parameters:
• TriggerEnable: Enables/Disables the trigger for this alarm. When Disabled, this
alarm will be suppressed. (Default = On)
Note:
• When an alarm is generated, to cancel an alarm without correcting the
condition that caused the alarm, simply toggle the Trigger Enable parameter
Off and then back On again.
• The Trigger Enable, Notify on Clear, Email Message and Address 1, 2 and
3 Parameters all include "Copy to All Triggers" options that allow you to
enable/disable the corresponding parameter for all RPC-40L8A4 alarms. For
example, if the Lost Voltage Alarm's Trigger Enable parameter is set to "On
(Copy to All Triggers), then all other RPC-40L8A4 alarms will also be enabled.
• ResendDelay: Determines how long the RPC-40L8A4 will wait to resend an email
message generated by this alarm, when the initial attempt to send the notification
was unsuccessful. (Default = 60 Minutes)
• NotifyUponClear: When enabled, the RPC-40L8A4 will send additional
notification when the situation that caused the alarm has been corrected. For
example, when Notify Upon Clear is enabled, the RPC-40L8A4 will send initial
notification when it detects that one of it's power supplies has been lost or
disconnected, and then send a second notification when it determines that power
has been restored. (Default = On)
