Site ID
Enter the Name of the site (Avoid using control characters
such as &, *, ‘).
Site Description
Enter the description, usually this is the site address.
Note: If remote alarm handling is used, the first line of this
site description must be exactly the same as the Site ID
field.
Offline Alarm Delay
Enter the Offline Alarm delay (default is 15 mins). The
Alarm index number for an offline device is 7. Note:
setting a short alarm delay can result in spurious offline
alarms.
Test dial-out frequency
Enter the time in hours (default is 24 hrs). Any Modem
configured as “Modem” will send a test dial out alarm
every x number of hours. Note: that any Modem set to
Email, SMS, GSM or other does not use the test dial-out
feature.
Web page look
Set the look when the DM is viewed through a web
browser. This can be set to; Original, Standard, Modern
or Dark. Note: The ‘Modern’ and ‘Dark’ webpage look is
supported on the latest version of Chrome and Firefox
and Internet Explorer 9 or above.
Sound/Accept alarms on the PC
Select which option you wish to use, to accept alarms
through a connected PC. There are four possible choices;
None
Local (Alarm bell is present on eth 0 only)
All but dial up (Alarm bell is present on eth 0
and eth 1 only)
All
Note: The above feature is not supported out with the
“Original” webpage option therefore does not display the
‘alarm bell’ as a result.
Alarm comments
Select how alarm comments can be appended to alarms.
The three options are; Off, On or Forced. When off, the
acceptance of the alarm will not prompt for additional
comments. On will prompt for a user comment, however
not compulsory to have one. Forced will not allow
acceptance or progress past accepting alarm unless a
comment has been selected. Once entered, comments
cannot be edited or removed from an alarm. However,
subsequent comments can be appended to an accepted
alarm.
