l
Pins: An alarm issent when thespecified combination of pin statesisdetected.
High - pin isasserted.
Low - pin isnot asserted.

l
Alarm recurrence time: Defineshow often to send a new alarm. For example, if the alarm
recurrence time is10 secondsthen even if the pin statesare detected 5 timeswithin a 10
second period only one alarm will be sent.
l
Send reminderswhile GPIO pinsremain in thisstate: If enabled, reminderswill be sent
if the pins remain in the defined state for an extended period of time.
l
Every: The number of secondsthe pins must remain in the defined state for a reminder to
be sent.
n
Send alarmsbased on serial data pattern matching: Click this radio button to specify that
thisalarm is sent when the specified serial data pattern isdetected. Then specify the following:
l
Serial Port: The serial port to monitor for the data pattern. This field appearsfor devices
where more than oneserial port isavailable.
l
Pattern: When theserial port receives this data pattern it sends an alarm. You can include
special characters such as carriage return carriage return (\r) and new line (\n) in the data
pattern.
