Alarm Indicators

Any time a built-in or preconfigured alarm set point is exceeded, you are alerted via both visible and audible (if
connected) alarms.

When an alarm is triggered, the following things occur:

 The measurement’s value and tick color are highlighted red
 The measurement’s value and tick blink
 A red alarm bar appears at the bottom of the screen with a message identifying the out of range measurement
 Below the alarm bar, the alarm menu gives you options for what to do next. See the following subsections for more

information

 If an external light is connected to the EMS-D120 EMS main harness, the light turns on

The alarm menu appears below the red alarm bar. See the Alarm Silencing and Alarm Acknowledgement sections below
for more information on this menu. Note, alarms may be silenced immediately; they may not be acknowledged during
the first half second of the alarm.

In an alarm condition, the EMS-D120 also alerts you audibly, provided the EMS Audio Alert output is connected to your
intercom as described in the EMS-D120 Installation Guide. If no audio device is connected, you will not hear an audible
alarm.

If your EMS-D120 is networked to other Dynon products via DSAB, alarms sourced from those products will
appear on your EMS-D120 as well. Alert messages sourced from your EMS-D120 are preceded by the label
