Line Failure alarm messages

If valid communication is not achieved after a specified number of retries, the remote shifts to the "LINE FAILURE" state and the system logs an event. If the remote stays in this state for longer than the Administrator-configured timeout value, the system issues a "LINE FAILURE" alarm.

The alarm message takes the following format:

Communications on RemoteName - line failure - unavailable for >TimeSinceProcessingOfLastGoodValue seconds
