There's no direct limit of SNMP Trap elements in the system.

But there's a limit for overall elements in the system. Please use the table from "Comparison chart: Master modules", "Comparison chart: PDUs", horizontal field "Max. amount of elements:".

Virtual sensor "SNMP Get" is used to read data from external equipment via SNMP PDU GET (v1, v2c, v3). The "SNMP Get" sensor can be analog or discrete type. The analog sensor interprets the value read by SNMP as a decimal number, extraneous characters (if they are in the data line) are discarded. The discrete sensor compares the read value with the given sample (called "Normal value"), and if the sample is contained in the data line, then the element takes the state "normal", if the sample is not in the line, it takes the state "alarm".

To create an "SNMP Get", press add button "  " inside "System tree" menu. Then choose "SNMP Get (analog)" or "SNMP Get (discrete)". A modal window will appear:

Click on the "SNMP Get (analog)". SNMP Get element form will be opened:

Fields in the form available for change:

#NameDescription
1NameCreated element name
2User defined typeDefines the icon to be displayed in the "System tree"
3Units of measurementThe unit of measure in which the value is displayed in the "System tree"
4Minimum valueDetermines the minimum measurement range, when the value is out of range, the sensor goes into "Not connected" state
5Maximum valueDetermines the maximum measurement range, when the value is out of range, the sensor goes into a "Not connected" state
6Alarm and warning levelsDefines the alarm and warning thresholds, as for other sensors, see Sensor configuration
7HysteresisOption of setting the hysteresis state, see Sensor configuration
8Expression

Function of the form f (x). The default value for the sensor is equal to the measured value: "x", ie corresponds to the expression "x". To calculate the indirect value of the sensor is possible to use an arbitrary expression, which are permissible "(", ")", as well as:

    • operators: "+", "-", "*", "/", "%" (remainder of the division), "^" (exponentiation);
    • functions: "abs","sqrt","exp","ln","log","sin","cos","tan","asin","acos","atan";
    • constants: "pi" (3.1415926...), "e" (2.7182818...);
    • point is used as decimal separator (3.14).

        For example: "0.1*x+0.5"

Click on the "SNMP Get (discrete)". SNMP Get element form will be opened:

Fields in the form available for change:

#NameDescription
1NameCreated element name
2User defined typeDefines the icon to be displayed in the "System tree"
3Current stateState of element calculated according to behavior
4Current valueValue of element, does not depend on the behavior
5Value stringData string read by SNMP GET
6BehaviorNormal or reverse behavior
7Normal value

Sample substring, if the substring is contained in the data line, then the element takes the state "normal", else it takes the state "alarm" (according to behavior)
