Temperature Threshold
An alarm message is generated when the internal box temperature exceeds this threshold value (degrees Cel-
sius). You can change the threshold temperature, but we recommend that you use the factory default.
Modify Alarms—Configuring alarm severity levels
Clicking on Modify Alarms window (see figure 12) displays a table listing each individual alarm. From this
page you can configure the severity for each alarm (such as major, minor, major self-clearing, and minor self-
clearing). Each alarm can be disabled as appropriate for your application.
Figure 12. Modify Alarms settings window
There are 83 alarms that can be independently configured to generate alarm messages. Each alarm item can be
set for one of the following severity levels:
Ignore(0)—Do not generate an alarm.
Minor(1)—Generate a minor alarm that will not reset until the administrator manually clears it.
Major(2)—Generate a major alarm that will not reset until the administrator manually clears it.
