6.2.8 Mailbox Message: Alarm Indication
This mailbox message indicates to the application that a DPV1 slave has
transferred an alarm message to the Master. The message is sent spontaneously
by the module. That is, the module itself initiates the mailbox communications.
Detailed information about the cause of the alarm is presented in extended words
1 to 3 and in the message data field (see below).
