TOPIC about_ChannelSettings SHORT DESCRIPTION Describes PRTG Channel properties that can be used in conjunction with Set-ChannelProperty. LONG DESCRIPTION PrtgAPI supports the retrieval and modification of Channel Setting values in a reliable, typesafe manner. The following table outlines the properties that are currently supported/unsupported by PrtgAPI. In the tables below, the following keys are used to indicate typesafe support status. Yes : Supported No : Not currently supported Set-ChannelProperty does not currently support the modification of raw channel properties. As such, any properties not listed as supported in the table below cannot currently be interfaced with in the desired manner by PrtgAPI. | Property | Get | Set | Description | | --------------------- | --------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Unit | Yes | Unit of the channel. Note: not all channels support modifying units | | ValueLookup | Yes | Value Lookup name. For more info see the PRTG Manual (referenced below) | | ScalingMultiplication | Yes | Value to multiply the raw result of this channel by | | ScalingDivision | Yes | Value to divide the raw result of this channel by | | ShowInGraph | Yes | Whether this channel should be shown in graphs | | ShowInTable | Yes | No | Whether this channel should be shown in tables and API results | | ColorMode | Yes | Whether to use an automatic or custom color for this channel | | LineColor | Yes | Custom color to use for this channel | | LineWidth | Yes | Width of this channels graph line (pixels) | | PercentMode | Yes | Whether to display the value as a percentage of a maximum | | PercentValue | Yes | Maximum value to use when PercentMode is PercentOfMax | | ValueMode | Yes | How data is grouped together in historical graphs | | DecimalMode | Yes | How the number of decimal places to display is determined | | DecimalPlaces | Yes | Number of decimal places to display when DecimalMode is Custom | | SpikeFilterEnabled | Yes | Whether to truncate invalid values to within expected ranges | | SpikeFilterMax | Yes | Upper value limit. High values will be reduced to this threshold | | SpikeFilterMin | Yes | Lower value limit. Low values will be increased to this threshold | | VerticalAxisScaling | Yes | No | Whether to scale this sensor automatically in graphs | | VerticalAxisMax | Yes | No | Maximum display value when VerticalAxisScaling is Manual | | VerticalAxisMin | Yes | No | Minimum display value when VerticalAxisScaling is Manual | | LimitsEnabled | Yes | Whether warning/error limits are enabled | | UpperErrorLimit | Yes | Upper limit for entering this channel's sensor into a warning state | | UpperWarningLimit | Yes | Upper limit for entering this channel's sensor into a warning state | | LowerErrorLimit | Yes | Lower limit for entering this channel's sensor into an error state | | LowerWarningLimit | Yes | Lower limit for entering this channel's sensor into a warning state | | ErrorLimitMessage | Yes | Message to display when upper or lower error limit is met | | WarningLimitMessage | Yes | Message to display when upper or lower warning limit is met | EXAMPLES Set the UpperErrorLimit of the "Total" channel to 90 on all WMI CPU Load sensors C:\> Get-Sensor -Tags wmicpuloadsensor | Get-Channel Total | Set-ChannelProperty UpperErrorLimit 90 SEE ALSO PrtgAPI Wiki: https://github.com/lordmilko/PrtgAPI/wiki Set-ChannelProperty Get-Channel about_ObjectSettings about_SensorSettings PRTG Manual (Value Lookups): https://www.paessler.com/manuals/prtg/define_lookups |
