SP2/SP8/SP8-X20 Manual
e) This window is used for configuring the sensors parameters. These parameters are explained
below :-
Description :- The name of the sensor. Use a meaningful name such as "humidity sensor
office1"
Go Online/Offline :- This takes the sensor on or offline without unplugging it from the unit
Critical high :- The %age humidity level at which it is critically high
Warning high :- the %age humidity level at which it is high
Warning low :- the %age humidity level at which it is low
Critical low :- the %age humidity level at which it is critically low
Rearm :- Used to prevent the sensor from flickering between two states. For example if the "High
Warning" threshold for the temperature sensor is set to 80 degrees and the sensor were to vary
between 79 and 80 you could be faced with a very large number of emails, traps, and events
logged. The Rearm parameter prevents this by forcing the temperature to drop by the Rearm
before changing the state back to normal. In this example if Rearm is set to 2 then, the sensor
would have to drop from 80 down to 77 before the status would change from
Reading offset :- will adjust the reading by your offset amount.
In our example we have set the parameters as indicated in the screenshot above. Once you have
done this click on "save".
For information on setting up other sensor types please refer to the manual for your specific
sensor. This will give you guidance in setting up the parameters specific to your sensor.
