Event Notification Module configuration
NOTE: This module requires a separate license. See Licensing for more information.
Use the Event Notification Module (ENM) to notify recipients about critical power system events. ENM can send notifications of power system events through email, SMS or SNMP. ENM uses the Alarms application to detect system events. You can set up notifications for activity in any of the event, alarm, or incident views. The notification details are defined in a notification rule. A notification rule can be enabled or disabled, and you can use a schedule to determine when the rule is applied. You can define more than one notification rule.
warning
unintended equipment operation
● | Do not rely solely on Event Notification Module use for alarm notification where human or equipment safety relies on the operation of the control action. |
● | Do not use Event Notification Module to control time-critical functions. |
● | Do not use the software to control remote equipment without proper access control and status feedback. |
● | Consider the implications of unanticipated transmission delays or failures of communications links. |
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
NOTE: Other parts of the overall communication system, such as email servers, cellular phone systems and SNMP servers, could fail and result in notifications not being delivered. If notifications are not delivered to recipients, conditions that cause alarming may persist and result in safety critical issues.
ENM is a built-in feature of PME. It is available for configuration as soon as the Event Notification Module license has been activated.
TIP: You can open Notifications from SETTINGS > Alarms > Notifications in web applications.
