Definition
Time in GPS seconds that this table row was saved. When GPS time is
not available to the APEX1000, the internal APEX1000 clock is used. This
clock starts at GPS time zero when the APEX1000 is booted. (The
APEX1000 uses real GPS time when available.)
When the APEX1000 time source is internal (no GPS time source
available), you can select PC time from the System Configuration
window. This allows the APEX1000 to use the current PC time of the
APEX1000 EM for logging purposes.
This threshold, which is a percentage of usable bandwidth, monitors
output transport stream bandwidth utilization and produces an alarm for
the following conditions:
•
Minor Alarm – If the threshold is met or exceeded for the time
specified in Alarm Set Delay. The minor alarm clears after remaining
below the threshold for the time specified in Alarm Clear Delay.
Setting Alarm threshold to 0 or 100 disables the minor alarm.
•
Critical Alarm – If the rate reaches 100% (overflow). The alarm
returns to minor if the level is no longer at overflow but above the
threshold for the time specified in Alarm Clear Delay. The critical alarm
cannot be disabled, even if the Alarm Threshold is set at 0 or 100.
utilization exceeds the Alarm Threshold percentage before alarming.
This parameter takes immediate effect.
This is the time (in seconds) that output transport stream bandwidth
utilization must remain below the Alarm Threshold percentage before
clearing the alarm.
