bargraph will illuminate in red as a result to the unacknowledged
alarm condition resulting from actuating the Test Function.

3.5 ALARMS

The alarm functions provided by the UDR include HIGH, WARN, FAIL, and RANGE. The HIGH, WARN,
and FAIL alarms drive relay contact outputs. Some operating modes of the UDR disable alarms. The user
is cautioned to read and fully understand section 3.

Alarm Logic Types

Alarm logic defines whether the alarm is reset manually or automatically and whether alarm relay coils are
energized or de-energized in normal operation.

Standard alarm reset logic for the UDR is manual reset for the HIGH and WARN alarms, and auto reset for
the RANGE and FAIL alarm. Fail-safe operation is also standard.
