NTP-A258 Provision External Alarms and Controls on the Alarm Interface Controller-International
If you provision an external alarm to raise upon an open contact before you physically connect
to the ONS equipment, the alarm will raise until you do create the physical connection.
When you provision an external alarm, the alarm object is ENV-IN-nn. The variable nn refers to
the external alarm's number, regardless of the name you assign.
Environmental alarms that you create (and name) should be recorded locally for the NE. Both
the Alarm name and resolution are node-specific.
Use this procedure to create external (environmental) alarms and external
controls for the AIC-I card.
An AIC-I card must be installed in Slot 9.
