  • Page 222: Overview

    Overview Automatic messages automatically report network and system alarmed and non-alarmed events. Events are conditions that are detected by the TimeHub 5500. The alarm property of each event determines how it is reported, if at all. For certain events, this property is user configurable to control which automatic messages are generated by the system.

    Events Events are conditions that occur or are detected in the TimeHub 5500. Alarms are a subset of these events which have been configured, either by factory setting or by the user, to indicate an alarm and generate an Alarm Event (RPT ALM TSG) message.
