I have not been able to figure out how to have a conn test (ping test)
only turn red if it has been failing for 10 minutes.
Use the "DELAYRED" tag on your host. Set the delay to be 10 minutes.

 From the man page for hosts.cfg
delayred=STATUSCOLUMN:DELAY[,STATUSCOLUMN:DELAY...]
    Usually, status changes happen immediately. This tag is used to defer an update to red for the STATUSCOLUMN status for DELAY minutes. E.g. with delayred=disk:10,cpu:30, a red disk-status will not appear on the Xymon webpages until it has been red for at least 10 minutes
