The indexes of this table are obtained from the Source Definition table and represent the sources monitored by this device. Each column of this table represents a specific fault. For example, the column Video Black represents the traps faultVideoBlackFalse (1.3.6.1.4.1.6827.50.297.5.0.1000) and faultVideoBlackTrue (1.3.6.1.4.1.6827.50.297.5.0.1001).
