Alarm Delay
This menu sets a channel alarm delay. There are two types of alarm
delay: the startup alarm delay and channel alarm delay. Startup alarm
delay (which you can set in the Setup Global Parameters main menu)
delays process alarms (but not failed sensor alarms) for all channels for
a specified time after the CAS powers up.
The channel alarm delay, in contrast, is set separately for each channel.
It delays failed sensor and process alarms until the alarm condition has
been continuously present for longer than the alarm delay time. (Failed
sensor alarms are not subject to the startup alarm delay, but they are
affected by the channel's alarm delay during the startup alarm delay
period.)
Selectable values: 0 to 255 seconds
