Alarm Function
Timer This alarm functions as a countdown timer. Enter the duration as
HH:MM:SS. Press Ok to start the timer. When the alarm duration
expires, the Alarm Time Expired warning displays (“Alarm Time
Expired” on page 106) and an audible alarm sounds. This alarm sounds
until you press Ok. To cancel a previously running alarm before time
has expired, enter 0 for the Timer Alarm value.
Pause Duration This field allows you to set the maximum pause period while running a
method. When a running method is paused, a timer starts. If the pause
time exceeds this Pause Duration, the Pause Duration Exceeded error
displays (“Pause Duration Exceeded” on page 110), an alarm sounds,
and a message is sent to the printer. Entering a zero in this field disables
the Pause Duration Alarm.
