3. In the Alerts\/Tasks<\/em> menu, select Alerts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n 4. To add your first alert, select Add<\/strong>.<\/p>\n 5. In the Add New Alert<\/em> screen that appears:<\/p>\n – In Name<\/em>, enter a name for your alert. Our example is called ‘Data Center Temperature > 80 F.’<\/p>\n – In Device<\/em>, select your Room Alert from the drop-down list. We’re choosing the Room Alert 32E in our data center.<\/p>\n – In Alarm when…<\/em>, you’ll then see a drop-down list with all of the unit’s individual sensors. Select the specific sensor you wish to alert on. In our example, we’re choosing Internal Sensor – Temperature (F)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n – In is<\/em>, set the threshold for that sensor. The fields that appear here depend on the type of sensor you’ve chosen. In our example, we have a comparison and value field.<\/p>\n – First, select from the Comparison Value<\/em> drop-down list. In our example, we’re choosing greater than (>)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n – Then, in value<\/em>, enter the number that makes sense for the scale you’re using. In our example, we are measuring temperature in Fahrenheit, so we’re going to enter 80 (degrees Fahrenheit).<\/p>\n – In Alarm if item is unavailable for X scans<\/em>, you may leave the default, 4 scans, or enter another value. You may also disable this feature if you wish by unchecking the check box. In our example, we’re leaving the default.<\/p>\n – In Action \/ Notification List<\/em>, select an already-configured list from the drop-down menu or create a new one by selecting Add<\/strong>. Here we’re choosing the ‘Notify IT Staff’ Action \/ Notification List that we assembled in the previous FAQ, How To Configure Action \/ Notification Lists In Device ManageR<\/a>.<\/p>\n – Then select Save<\/strong>.<\/p>\n You’ve now created your first alert in Device ManageR. In our example alert, contacts\u00a0from an IT department will be notified by email (or email-to-SMS) when the temperature in their data center climbs above 80\u00b0 F.<\/p>\n You may repeat this process to create more alerts. You may also use the same Action \/ Notification List over and over again for different alerts, as we have in the example below.
