Creating Alert Contents


This section shows how to create an alert content. To define the content for an alert, you need to provide the alert content ID, description, device model, alert type, and subtype.


The new alert rule version does not require creating an alert content as a prerequisite as the alert content can be created together with the new alert rule. Creating an alert content is only applicable for the old version of the alert rule.

Before You Start

Ensure the alert type that the alert content belongs to is created. For more information, see Creating Alert Types.

Procedure

  1. Click Alert Service > Alert Rules from the left navigation menu of the EnOS Management Console.

  2. Click Alert Rules (Old Version) from the top right and go to the Alert Contents tab.

  3. Click New Content, and provide the required information for the alert content.

    • Content ID: It is recommended that you give a meaningful content ID for distinguishing different types of device. Using wind turbine as an example, you should create separate alerts for each DI value because the same DI value for different types of wind turbines can represent different states. Therefore, each DI value requires an event content record. You can name the event ID as GS_ST_001, where:

      • GS represents the code of the device type or the branch.
      • ST represents the state of the device.
      • 001 represents the DI value of the device.

    • Content Description: Enter the description of the alert content, which may include the possible causes and solutions for the alert. The input supports internationalization, and can be text or a measurement point variable, using its identifier, to return its value.

      • Format: "${pointId}" for int, string, float, etc. data types.

      • Format: "${pointId/parameterId}" for struct data types with parameters.

    • Model: Select a device type from the list. In the wind turbine example, the device type is turbines.

    • Type / Subtype: Select an alert type/subtype from the list of defined alert types.
