Numeric alert thresholds

Numeric alert thresholds are thresholds defined for sensors that report numeric values.
There are nine specific types of numeric thresholds that can be set on numeric sensors.

Numerical threshold options

• All alert threshold options, except Power (VA) and Power (Watts), can be used to set threshold settings at a NetBotz Appliance for itself, its sensor and camera pods, and other devices it manages.
• The Other Numerical Sensors and Other State Settings options, and for some third-party devices, Voltage, can be used to set threshold settings at a NetBotz device for the full SNMP support devices it monitors.

Threshold	Description
Air Flow	Settings for sensors that measure air movement as feet per minute. Note Sensors that use a different measurement, such as cubic feet per minute (CFM) will be displayed under the Other Numeric Sensors option.
Audio	Settings for sensors that measure the volume of sound.
Current (Amps)	Settings for sensors that measure current as total amperage (amps).
Dew Point	Settings for sensors that measure dew point as degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or Celsius (°C).
Humidity	Settings for sensors that measure relative humidity as a percentage (%).
Other Numeric Settings	Settings for sensors that measure numeric settings not reported for other Alert Thresholds options.
Power (VA)	Settings for sensors that measure power as total Volt-amperes (VA). Note Sensors that measure power as a percentage of VA will be displayed under the Other Numeric Sensors option.
Power (Watts)	Settings for sensors that measure power as total watts (W).
Temperature	Settings for sensors that measure temperature as degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or Celsius (°C).
Voltage	Settings for sensors that measure either AC or DC voltage as total volts (V).

Numerical threshold types

Setting	Description
Minimum Value Threshold	An alarm occurs when the sensor's value is below the Minimum setting.
Maximum Value Threshold	An alarm occurs when the sensor's value is above the Maximum setting.
Range Threshold	An alarm occurs when the sensor's value is outside the range defined by the Minimum and Maximum settings.
Below Value for Time Threshold	An alarm occurs if the sensor's value is below the Minimum setting for longer than the Time Allowed Below Minimum setting's delay.
Above Value for Time Threshold	An alarm occurs if the sensor's value is above the Maximum setting for longer than the Time Allowed Above Maximum setting's delay.
Rate of Increase Threshold	An alarm occurs if the sensor value increases by more than the Maximum Increase setting since the last time the sensor's value was sampled. For example, at a sensor that measures amps, 1 would result in an alarm when the amps measured by the sensor increases by one amp.
Rate of Decrease Threshold	An alarm occurs if the sensor value decreases by more than the Maximum Decrease setting since the last time the sensor's value was sampled. For example, at a sensor that measures total watts (W), 100 would result in an alarm when the watts measured by that sensor goes down 100 watts.
