Review Alarms
The RCM8 maintains a history of alarms that have been received
by the unit. This alarm history can be accessed through the
RCM8 Terminal menu, or by accessing the RCM8 logon screen
and pressing A.
The alarm history log stores up to 100 local alarms transmitted
from non-repeater units or 16 alarms transmitted from connected
repeater units.
The Alarms Review option for
a master unit displays local
alarms only.
The RCM8 can display up to 20 alarms on a screen at a time. If
more than 20 alarms are logged, press the spacebar to view the
next screen.
Press Esc to return to the logon screen.
You can also view the alarm history log using the RCM8
Terminal menu as described previously in this manual.
Pager Operation
An integral feature of the RCM8 is its capability to
communicate alarm occurrence and alarm text to a pager.
The pager telephone number is entered in setup using the RCM8
Setup menu (accessed from the Terminal menu).
If the RCM8 is configured to dial a pager on alarm, the unit dials
the number entered in setup. Depending on your pager
capabilities, you may receive a beep and a phone number to call
or you may receive the alarm text transmitted from the RCM8.
Refer to your pager manual for its capabilities, configuration,
and operating instructions.
