WFM700 Series Waveform Monitors User Manual 3- 39
The instrument provides the following five alarm status displays which
correspond to the categories of alarms provided in the Configure menu: general,
serial, audio (Option DG only), auxiliary data, and physical (WFM700M only).
An “X” appears in the Enabled column for each of the enabled alarms. The
Status column indicates the status of each alarm, whether or not that alarm
condition has been enabled. Table 3--5 lists the status indicators that may appear.
Table 3- 5: Alarm status indicators
Indicator Description
OK No alarm condition is detected.
Yes / No Indicates whether or not a condition was detected.
Error An alarm is detected and information about the error is displayed.
N/A The alarm condition does not apply to the current configuration. For example, the RP165 EDH status alarm is set to
N/A when an HD signal is present because RP165 is only valid in SD signals.
Missing An optional feature is not present in the input signal. For example, the RP165 EDH status alarm is set to Missing
when the input is SD but there are no RP165 packets present in the signal (EDH is an optional signal feature).
12345678 In the Audio Alarm Status display, this indicator may appear to show which audio channels have errors. For example,
----34----78 would be displayed to indicate that channels 3, 4, 7, and 8 have errors.
This indicator is logical, after remapping, and not physical.
RGB and Composite Gamut Error Indicators. When RGB and/or Composite
Gamut errors are detected, the associated lines in the Alarm Status display have
characters that indicate which gamut threshold(s) are exceeded for each
component. Table 3--6 lists the error codes that may be displayed.

r Signal exceeds the low gamut limit for the red component (RGB gamut)
G Signal exceeds the high gamut limit for the green component (RGB gamut)
g Signal exceeds the low gamut limit for the green component (RGB gamut)
B Signal exceeds the high gamut limit for the blue component (RGB gamut)
