Sounding or stopping the alarm warning sound

An alarm warning can be sounded when an alarm occurs. The alarm warning is sounded

only when all the following conditions are met.

• The alarm monitor is displayed.

• The alarm sound function is turned ON.

• Of the tags displayed in the monitor, at least one alarm is occurring.

Procedure

1. Show “Alarm Sound” from the “Monitor” menu to see whether a check mark is

displayed. If the check mark is present, the alarm warning sound is ON; otherwise,

it is OFF. You can turn ON or OFF the sound by choosing Alarm Sound from the

Monitor menu.

2. To stop the alarm sound, click all the groups in the alarm monitor and choose the

menu command. Or, choose View > Hold > Reset.

Note

• Once an alarm starts sounding, the sound continues until it is stopped even if all alarms are

cleared.

• A sound source is required in sounding the alarm.

• Up to two windows of alarm monitors can be displayed. To stop the alarm sound when

two windows of alarm monitors are displayed, the steps taken to stop the alarms must be

performed on both windows.

The display color is determined depending on the data value and the scale. The

maximum value of the scale is red, the minimum value is blue, and the mid-point value is
