need some help with an alert checker

Hi, I have been able to write some basic checks but I need a little help with this. I want to write a check to alert when my ups’ switch to battery. I think I can do that by checking if the “source of output power” is not normal, but I do not know how to translate that logic into conditions and associations..can someone help?
Thanks
BTW, is there an exchange where people post their checks for others to use?
Tony

Hi Tony,

You want something like
association
status_descr equals Source of Output Power
test conditions
status_name notequals normal
