"Battery Capacity Below Warning" event.

the "Ramping" and "Shedding" tabs. The tabs will only be accessible
if the device supports these features.
3.7 Settings > Events
Click the "Settings" menu button and the "Events" submenu button to
access the Settings > Events page (Figure 3-12). The Settings > Events
page allows you to configure responses to changes in operating and
environmental conditions.
Events are divided into four categories: Critical, Warning,
Information and Offline. Each event category has an icon associated
with it. The icon will be displayed in the alarm status section of the
console window (with other event information) when an event of that
category occurs.
You can configure settings for several event types, including "On
Battery" and "Battery Low." (Events vary by device.) See Figure 3-13
Settings > Events > Details Tab. You can configure several settings
categories that specify actions to be executed when the selected event
takes place:
•
"Shutdown"
–Turns the device off after a specified period of time.
•
"Contact Notification"
–Sends an e-mail to an e-mail address(es)
in your contact list. (Requires an e-mail contact to be set. See

•
"SNMP Trap Notification"
address(es) in your SNMP list. (Requires an SNMP contact to be
set. See Figure 3-15 Settings > Contacts.)
•
"Logging"–
Enables logging for the selected event. Note: The Log
can be accessed via Logs Menu.
•
"SNMP Set Notification"
–Allows the device to perform an SNMP
set on another SNMP-enabled device or application on the network,
allowing the device or application to be notified when the event
occurs. (Requires an SNMP contact to be set. See Figure 3-15 >
Contacts.)
Check the "Status" box next to the event category to enable the
option.
