Delay
Delays are used to avoid false alarms from rapid transient conditions that are
not actually alarm conditions. Delays are set in seconds and suspend the acti-
vation of the appropriate alarm level when the air sample reaches the thresh-
old level for that alarm. By using the delay, particulate will need to be present
in the sensing chamber after the specified delay before an alarm is activated.

To configure the delay, under the Delay [Secs] column, specify the time in sec-
onds that the alarm activation should be delayed after the air sample reaches
the threshold level of the alarm.
rules Button
The Rules button displays the the restrictions for specifying Standard and Ac-
climate thresholds as shown in Figure 9. To close the Rules pop-up, select the
