ELMwatcher is a program for monitoring SNMP Trap notification messages generated by an EMKA Electronic Locking & Monitoring (ELM) System. It lets you manage received notifications in various ways and includes mechanisms for informing users about the notified events.

Traps are generated by the Communication component which is implemented on module H1m14 (3000-U14). Third party SNMP manager programs (e.g., HP Openview) can be used too.

ELM Notifications can be viewed in a list window, logged to files and forwarded by E-mail. ELMwatcher displays details for each notification message and can summarize multiple repeated notifications. The application can also be configured in a way that the main window opens and brings to foreground when a notification is received. A sound file can be played on a received notification. The notifications can also be used to invoke other programs. ELMwatcher can control the ELM Management Software ELMcontrol remotely to show the state of the ELM system which has sent a notification. Furthermore, user defined Tool Command Language (TCL) scripts can be executed by ELMwatcher on notification. The notification data is accessible within TCL scripts. ELMwatcher's build in TCL interpreter provides the possibility to specify individual reactions on each notification.
