DX NetOps

when i create an alarm status on a device i get the following trap which also sends another event like so  

TrapAlarmStart > creates sensStateChange with a sensState attribute value of alarm (3)

I can generate an alarm in spectrum with:

if ({v sensState} == {I 3}) evaluates to TRUE, then generate 0x...

When i then clear that alarm state the device sends:

TrapAlarmEnd > which creates senStateChange with a sensState attribute value of normal (1)

I cannot see how to clear the alarm - when the TrapAlarmEnd is sent using the event configuration GUI

To generate alarm you can generate event that raises alarm. To clear event you can generate event that clears the alarm. For example:

1. Generate alarm

if ({v sensState} == {I 3}) evaluates to TRUE, then generate 0xfff00000 event
0xfff00000 event raises 0xfff00000 alarm

2. Clear alarm

if ({v sensState} == {I 1}) evaluates to TRUE, then generate 0xfff00001 event
0xfff00001 event clears 0xfff00000 alarm

Please notice that I have red-colored the alarm Cause Code. Alarm Cause Code is different from Event Type (Code).

In Event Configuration tool you should be able to set the event to clear the alarm by assigning the alarm cause code, in this case 0xfff00000, in the "Clearead Alarms" section.
