– Has the program which receives alarms been started and correctly configured?
– In large networks: Is a router or firewall blocking the SNMP packets?
– Is message suppression (Inhibit Status in the SNMP > General menu) activated?
1.5.1.4 Configuration
This chapter provides an overview of the available properties.
RS-XX8000-COMMON-MIB
This MIB contains general data that supports every unit:
– Type plate: serial number, software version, etc
– SNMP configuration: table for alarm destinations and alarm versions
– Triggering of a test trap
– Counter for counting the transmitted traps
– List of the alarm messages last transmitted
– Parameters which are used in several other MIBs
This information always applies to the instrument that is being monitored via SNMP.
RS-XX8000-DVB-TX-MIB
This MIB contains the parameters for:
– the standby concepts "single transmitter", "passive exciter standby", "active output-
stage standby" and "passive output-stage standby"
– all power classes (low-power, medium-power and high-power)
– air-cooled and liquid-cooled transmitters
Different parameters are available depending on the system being queried. For example,
cmdTxOpModeExcAutomatic (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2566.127.1.2.167.4.1.1.1.7) gives the reply
NoSuchName if you query a single transmitter since this transmitter does not have an au-
tomatic exciter function. It is easy to find out which parameters are valid by checking the
"module compliances" (e.g. under .1.3.6.1.4.1.2566.127.1.2.167.4.5.2).
Example: DVB configuration, passive exciter standby, medium power, optional DVB receiv-
er module with two inputs.
Valid MIBs:
– RS-COMMON-MIB
– RS-XX8000-COMMON-MIB
– RS-XX8000-DVB-TX-MIB
– RS-XX8000-DVB-TX-REC-MIB
The valid OIDs for the transmitter are contained in the "Module Compliance" path. The OID
contains references to the individual groups.
