1. Which if any of the alarms are to be high alarms and which if any
are to be low alarms?
Setting an alarm as HIGH triggers the alarm when the
contaminant concentration rises above the setpoint. Setting an
alarm as LOW triggers the alarm when the contaminant
concentration falls below the setpoint.
Decide whether you want the alarms to be set as:
• Both high (high and high-high) alarms, or
• One high and one low alarm, or
• Both low (low and low-low) alarms.
2. Are either or both of the alarms to be configured as failsafe?
In failsafe mode, the alarm relay de-energizes in an alarm
condition. For non-failsafe operation, the relay is energized in an
alarm condition. You can set either or both of the concentration
alarms to operate in failsafe or non-failsafe mode.
3. Are either of the alarms to be latching?
In latching mode, once the alarm or alarms trigger, they will
remain in the alarm mode even if process conditions revert back
to non-alarm conditions. This mode requires an alarm to be
recognized before it can be reset. In the non-latching mode, the
alarm status will terminate when process conditions revert to non-
alarm conditions.
4. Are either of the alarms to be defeated?
The defeat alarm mode is incorporated into the alarm circuit so
that maintenance can be performed under conditions which
would normally activate the alarms.
The defeat function can also be used to reset a latched alarm.
