NTI ENTERPRISE ENVIRONMENT MONITORING SYSTEM

Many of the settings found in the RS485 configuration page are not present because they do not apply to contact sensors. As
such, only “Critical Alert Settings” apply (see descriptions on page 42) and non-critical alert settings are omitted altogether.
A setting that is present only for contact sensors connected to RJ45 sensor ports and
for Digital Input sensors (page 51)is
"Change Global Alert Status on triggering this sensor" (explained on page 50).
Figure 46- Contact Sensor configuration page
Aside from the usual Description, Group, and Refresh Rate settings to be applied, the configuration page introduces four new
settings:
Normal Status: This will be the contact sensors state when it is not in alert, either with contact closed, or contact open.
Enable Tamper Alert: If the contact sensor has a tamper feature, and the feature is being connected to the ENVIROMUX, then
this box can be selected if alert messages are desired in the event the contact sensor tamper feature’s state changes from its
defined “Normal Status”.
Tamper Normal Status: This will be the normal state of the contact sensor’s tamper feature when not being tampered with.
State Open/Close: Customize the information that will be provided to you in an alert message (up to 32 characters) when the
state changes
