Hello All,

I'm new to Zenoss and SNMP monitoring, so bare with me :) . I have a couple of APC UPS's that I would like to monitor an OID that shows the battery output status. I'm having a hard time trying to figure this out. I can make a graph and create a threshold, but i don't want to that.

OID Info:
+SNMP Object Type upsBasicOutputStatus+

+OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.4.1.1.0+

+Returns The current state of the UPS:+

+1 = Unknown+
+2 = On Line+
+3 = On Battery+
+4 = On Smart Boost+
+5 = Timed Sleeping+
+6 = Software Bypass+
+7 = Off+
+8 = Rebooting+
+9 = Switched Bypass+
+10 = Hardware Failure Bypass+
+11 = Sleeping Until Power Returns+
+12 = On Smart Trim+*
*

How do I make zenoss monitor this OID (Without a graph) and send a event when the value changes to 3?
