Deactivating Alarms

An alarm is deactivated automatically when the alarm state is reversed. E.g. if power is restored after a PSU Failure alarm, or if audio is restored after an Input Silence alarm.

 

Deactivating Input Silence Alarms

An Input Silence alarm is activated when the configured audio and duration thresholds have been breached. To recover from this alarm state the codec must detect input audio higher than the failure threshold. When audio at this level is detected, the codec monitors input audio to ensure it doesn't drop below the recovery threshold setting more than 5 times within the nominated Input Silence duration time. The alarm is then deactivated automatically.

Click the Alarm History tab within the Alarms Panel to display a record of all system alarms which have been raised.
