Acknowledging an Alarm

Press Alarm Ack to acknowledge the alarm. If there are other loops
with alarm conditions, the Alarm display switches to the next loop in
alarm. Acknowledge all alarms to clear the global alarm digital output
(The keyboard and display won't work for anything else until you
acknowledge each alarm). The alarm symbols are displayed as long as
the alarm condition is valid.
