Specify your warning and critical levels, for example here is mine.

define command{
        command_name    check_ping
        command_line    /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ping -H 
$HOSTADDRESS$ -w 600:20% -c 1000:100% -p 1
        }

sounds ling something is hosed with the macros $ARG1$ $ARG2$

Hope this helps.
