I have create the alarm threshold for e few sensors device . After a few days we have discovered more devices . I didn’t find the way add this new sensors device to existing alarm threshold .

According to same issue from January 2018 (https://community.ecostruxureit.com/questions/128748911/adding-devices-to-an-existing-treshold-alarm...) “Adding devices to an existing threshold alarm”

I understood that no way .

We are working on DCE 7.5 .

Did  change this issue  from January 2018 and now there is way add new sensors to existing alarm threshold ?

Hi Boris!

As I know, there are no changes in that way.

Valentin is correct. There is no way to save a threshold so that it can be associated with a new device / sensor. New sensors require you to create new thresholds.

The exception to this of course is to use the thresholds on the devices themselves (with APC SNMP devices) so that you can push a configuration template to these devices.

Hi guys

I worked with virtual devices in my hall .

what about the following solution:

1.create virtual devices according to type PDU and type for monitoring (example total power , temeratures .....)

2.Create alert to this Virtual Sensor .

My question :

Does trashold assigne to summary/total  mensurence from device's sensors or for each mensurance of the sensor ?

Dear Boris,

From your question:

Does trashold assigne to summary/total  mensurence from device's sensors or for each mensurance of the sensor ?

The thresholds apply only to the total value of the virtual sensor.

If you have more questions, please ask.

With respect.
