Use case
SNMP and e-mail alarms for unattended broadcast sites
Every KVARTA device reports to your NMS, with no extra software.
The problem
Why it happens
Transmitter sites, headends and remote racks are rarely staffed. Equipment that cannot report its own faults leaves you blind until someone visits.
Sounds familiar?
- Site visits just to read values
- Alarms from different vendors in different tools
- No time-stamped history after an incident
The KVARTA way
How we solve it
KVARTA devices have an embedded web server, SNMP with traps and e-mail notifications. Every alarm is logged with an accurate time. Firmware can be upgraded remotely, so a device installed today keeps gaining features.
What is checked
- SNMP configuration and traps
- E-mail alarms
- Time-stamped alarm log
- Remote firmware upgrades

FAQ
Common questions
Do I need a KVARTA server to collect alarms?
No. Devices report directly to your SNMP manager and by e-mail.
