How to create alert when Collector Status is set to "Not Collecting"

I am trying to figure out how to create an Alert when an Adapter Instance Name Collection State is set to "Not Collecting" 

 

I have studied on the web but could not successfully do this.

 

Is there a way to set up such an Alert

Tried the following (see attached) but no joy . Possibly something in "Message Event Symptom Definitions"

Well I got the alarm activated in a sort of convoluted way by looking at metrics coming in.
