Entering Condition-Based Alerts Manually

Access the Condition-Based Alerts Revisions form.

Equipment Number

Enter an identification code to represent an asset. You enter the identification code in one of these formats:

1: Asset number (a computer-assigned, eight-digit, numeric control number).

2: Unit number (a 12-character alphanumeric field).

3: Serial number (a 25-character alphanumeric field).

Every asset has an asset number. You can use unit number and serial number to further identify assets. If this is a data entry field, the first character that you enter indicates whether you are entering the primary (default) format that is defined for the system, or one of the other two formats. A special character (such as / or *) in the first position of this field indicates which asset number format you are using. You assign special characters to asset number formats on the fixed assets system constants form.

Measurement Location

Enter a value from UDC 13/LC (Measurement Location) that indicates a measurement location on a piece of equipment. You can use this code to indicate where a measurement is taken or where an alert originates on a piece of equipment.

Event Date / Time

Enter the date on which an event occurred, such as the date of a test reading or the date of a condition-based alarm.

Send Notification Message

Enter a code to specify whether a notification message is sent when a condition-based alert is entered into the system. Values are:

1 or Y: Send.

0 or N: Do not send.

This field can be populated from the processing options or from the information setup in the alert action rules.

The system will use the notification message rules to determine who receives the message, unless you enter an address book number in the Notification Recipient field.
