Chapter 3 ICS Command Reference
ALARM
192 SSU-2000 Technical Reference 12713020-003-2 Revision F.01 – January 2007
Use this command to set up the expected operation for the specified
alarm number. Only one alarm number can be passed if you enter
additional information.
The additional parameters that you can use are:
# Alarm number. See Chapter 6, Alarms and Events for a list
of alarm numbers.
DELAY A supervisor-level user can use this parameter to enter the
amount of time that an alarm condition must be active
before an actual alarm condition is generated. If an alarm is
specified to be Immediate, no delay time can be entered.
Delay times are in seconds.
Valid delays are 0 to 86,400 seconds (1 day). If the original
value is set to -1 (Immediate) for this command, delay time
cannot be set by the user.
IGNORE Sets the alarm status level to IGNORE. No action is taken
for an alarm condition.
REPORT Sets the alarm status level to REPORT. A report-only
message occurs for an alarm condition.
MINOR Sets the alarm status level to MINOR.
MAJOR Sets the alarm status level to MAJOR.
CRITICAL Sets the alarm status level to CRITICAL.
ACO Activates the Alarm Cutoff function. ACO remains active
until a new alarm is reported, or an existing alarm is
elevated. The command creates a momentary change of
state (pulse) on the alarm relay, which allows a
specially-built alarm panel to squelch the audio alarm.
Alarm panels that do not have this capability ignore the
pulse. Contact your Symmetricom representative for further
details on this alarm panel.
Level 4 Same as Level 3 operation.
Remarks Use of this command implies that you are querying the state of the unit.
All information is presented as concisely and completely as possible.
Each alarm is listed on a separate line.
