Chapter 3: Using the Web Interface
Yellow- or Red-Highlighted Sensors
The BCM2 highlights those sensors that enter the abnormal state with a
yellow or red color. Note that numeric sensors can change colors only
after you have enabled their thresholds.
Tip: When an actuator is turned ON, it is also highlighted in red for
drawing attention.
For concepts of thresholds, deassertion hysteresis and assertion timeout,
see
Sensor Threshold Settings
(on page 576).
In the following table, "R" represents any numeric sensor's reading. The
symbol <= means "smaller than" or "equal to."
States shown in
