When a setpoint is operated, its status is always stored to the alarm status register
even if no action is assigned to the setpoint. The alarm status register can be polled
and cleared through communications.
This action causes the alarm LED on the front panel to blink that gives the user a local
alarm indication. The alarm LED operates in latched mode, i.e., even if an alarm
condition disappears, the alarm LED is still blinking until the user acknowledges the
alarm from the front panel (see Section 5.1). An alarm LED can be operated from any
number of setpoints using an OR scheme.
Alarm relays operate in unlatched mode. This means that a relay is operated while an
alarm condition is present and is automatically released when an alarm condition
disappears. Each relay can be operated from any number of setpoints using an OR
scheme, i.e., a relay will be in operate state while either of the alarm conditions is still
present.
This action converts a common event counter to the time counter which measures time
at 0.1 hour resolution while the setpoint is in the operated state. Each time counter has
a non-volatile shadow counter that counts time at 1-second resolution before the
corresponding time counter is incremented. The time counters can be inspected via the
Status Information Menu. They are labeled by an hour mark in the middle window.
