– Select an Alert Severity value for this threshold. Available Alert Severities are, in order of

escalating severity: Information, Warning, Error, Critical, or Failure. By default, the Alert

Severity generated by this threshold will be “Error.”

–Specify the Alert Profile that will be used to determine what alert notification actions will be

taken in response to this threshold. By default, the Default Alert Profile is used for all thresholds.

However, if you have created additional Alert Profiles you can specify that a threshold use an

Alert Profile other than Default.

– Select Cameras to Trigger in response to the alert. If desired, alert notifications generated in

response to this threshold can include image captures from any Camera Pod 120s connected to

your appliance. To include images from one or more connected Camera Pod 120s, check the

State Mismatch Threshold

A state mismatch threshold is defined by specifying a “normal” state for the sensor. If any state other than

the normal state is reported by the sensor, an alert condition is reported. To define an alert state threshold:

1. Start the Camera Pods, Sensor Pods, or Device Crawlers task by double-clicking on the appropriate

icon.

2. Click Sensors... to open the Sensor Configuration window.

3. Select from the Sensors selection list the sensor for which you will define a threshold. A list of

thresholds that have been previously defined for the selected sensor, if any, appears in the

Thresholds selection list.

4. Click Add... to open the Select Threshold window. Select State Mismatch Threshold and then

click OK to close the Select Threshold window.

5. Type in the Threshold Name field a name for this threshold.

6. Specify Basic threshold settings. From the Basic tab in the Thresholds pane:

a. Select from the Normal State drop box the state that is the normal operational state for the

device. If any state other than the selected “normal” state is reported by the sensor an alert

condition is generated.

b. Check the Enabled check box to enable the threshold. If this check box is not checked, the alert

threshold will be saved but will not be active.

Note

The Alert Profile drop box will appear in the Advanced tab only if additional

Alert Profiles have been created. For more information see “Creating an Alert

Profile” on page 63.
