FAZ 5.4.0 - event alert on memory usage of a FortiGate

Is there a way to create an event alert when the memory on a FortiGate goes above say 80%?  I see Performance statistics in the System Event logs with a field called Memory and a value.  However, when creating an event alert, I can't figure out how to query on this field.  ideas?

Thanks.

I use the below settings to get an email alert when memory is greater than 70% (so that I get an alert before the fortigate goes into conserve mode). Hope it helps.

 

Log Type: Event Log

Event Category:  System 

Group By: Device ID

Logs match: All

 

Log Field: Level

Match Criteria: Equal To

Value: Notice

 

Generic Text Filter: mem>70

I've added the event and will see what I get. 

Thank you Ahslan for your response - much appreciated!
