ACKNOWLEDGING ALARM CONDITIONS

Various alarm conditions may be presented whenever the system
encounters an abnormal condition or detects a specific alarm. Alarms are
typically in a full screen display describing the alarm and, dependent upon
the alarm type, may give instructions on how to fix the alarm. Each alarm
type has an associated alarm number which can be cross-referenced in the
Troubleshooting and Alarms section.

Some alarms (such as the Master Switch alarm) require a specific action
before the alarm condition will cease. In these cases, instructions are
indicated on the alarm display.

Other alarms can be acknowledged by pressing the Alarm Cancel button
of ESC key.

Alarm details can only be cleared by a Level 2 or Level 3 User.
