System Alerts and Alarms

While operating the instrument, system alerts can occur. To accurately identify the
source of the alarm, each type of alarm has been given a unique status.

In addition to the status, the 2020ppbPRO also has an audio alarm and an alarm
LED. To conserve power, the 2020ppbPRO alternates between the LED and audio.
Different alarms are identified by the frequency at which the 2020ppbPRO alternates
between the audio and LED; Peak alarm is 5 times per second, STEL alarm is 2.5
times per second, and TWA alarm is 1.25 times per second.
