4.7. Output Delays
Controllers with only single-level alarm capabilities use jumper JP1 to
enable/disable a 3-minute output delay for the input level alarm. This
delay provides a hysteresis preventing nuisance toggling of the alarm.
The delay is enabled when the jumper is in the ON position, and disabled
when in the OFF position. The delay for single-level systems is
approximately 3 minutes. Refer to Figure 12 for locations of the JP1
jumper and Figure 16 for a graphic representation of the alarm
responses when the delay is enabled and disable (via JP1).

Figure 16. Alarm Response (Single-Level Alarms)
The delays for dual-level systems are about 25 seconds for the low level
and then another 25 seconds for the high level. Refer to Figure 17 for a
graphic representation of the alarm response showing the 25-second
delays that are imposed.
