"Status" is a text parameter that gives the overall status of the corresponding device or sensor. An alert condition describes in symbolic terms what occurs in the parameter when thresholds are breached: one exclamation mark triggers a warning; two exclamation marks raise an alarm.

Example

If BPM Express for Hardware detects that a blade has exceeded manufacturer-specified thresholds, the Status parameter will report “Warning! or Alarm!! The blade is missing”, or as the case may be. On clicking the history graph, you can see the exact problem details, the consequences and the recommended actions.

Depending on your system, all parameters may not be used.
