An Alert Monitor, the DSM150 monitors the bus for Alert messages from Alert Sources, and displays the remote Alert information on the DSM150‟s screen. Operators may accept or cancel the remote Alerts from the buttons on the front of the DSM150, in which case an Alert Command Message is sent back to the Alert Source.
Accepting or Cancelling an Alert Active Alerts may be accepted (4.3.2) by the operator to indicate that the operator has taken responsibility for the Alert. Alerts that have been triggered and the cause removed without being accepted by a user must be cleared. 8.2.1 From a Favorite Screen The Alert with the highest priority that requires accepting or cancelling is shown at the bottom left of the screen (see Figure 255).
DSM150 User’s Manual Pressing the Enter button at this point will Accept or Cancel the Alert. Adding an Alert Alerts are created by selecting the parameter to be monitored (e.g. Depth), and then selecting the type of Alert (e.g. High Alert). Start by going to the Add New Alert entry in the Alert Setup Menu.
Figure 257 – Part of the Alert Edit Screen This allows the entry of all the alert parameters, which can vary depending on the type of alert chosen. These parameters are: 8.3.1 Enable/Disable Control This allows individual alerts to be enabled or disabled. The decision to disable an Alert must be made very carefully, as it nullifies the purpose for having alerts.
The desired option is selected using the Scroll Up and Scroll Down buttons. 8.3.5 Description This is a textual field that will be displayed on the DSM150 and transmitted to Alert Slave devices. It is intended to describe the alert (e.g. Fire).
Figure 258 – High Alert Parameters A high alert is triggered (i.e. becomes an active alert) once an input signal has risen above the High Alert Set Point and the Set Delay time has elapsed. If the Set Delay is set to zero, then the alert is immediately triggered once the input signal rises above the High Alert Set Point.

activated. The point of reference can be selected from the current position or it can be manually entered. The Outside Radius Alert and the Anchor Alert are very similar. The Anchor Alert is designed to allow the input of relatively small radius values, and may be displayed graphically through the Anchor Watch Display (section 7.1).
DSM150 User’s Manual Alert Set Delay – When the quality of the GPS fix becomes lower than the quality specified in the Alert Set Point field for longer than the time specified in the Alert Set Delay field, the alert will become active.
8.3.7.12 Trigger Type is Time Alert The DSM150 can be configured with alerts that go active at a predetermined time, such as an alarm clock. These alerts can also be configured to become active periodically, making them useful for signaling watch changes (for example, every four hours) or as a personnel alarm (making sure a crew member is at the helm every 15 minutes).
Alarm would become active again at 9:00, 10:00, and so on. 8.3.8 Local Audible If the Local Audible field is set to Enabled, the speaker internal to the DSM150 will be activated when this Alert is triggered. 8.3.9 Tone If Local Audible is enabled, the tone that is sounded on the DSM150 and the Remote Annunciators can be set here.
Annunciator has been given a label, the label will be displayed, in parenthesis, alongside the instance number.

8.3.15 Scope Alerts may be constrained to be displayed only on the DSM150 where they are detected. In this case the Alert message is not sent out on the NMEA2000 bus, and other devices will not display the alert, or allow Accepting of Cancelling. The Scope does not affect the generation of Annunciator messages.
