Noticing an Alarm
“Noticing” an alarm is a very important part of using the alarm system. With button presses, you can tell the
Control that you have “seen” the alarm message. The simplest way to do this is to first press the alarm button
to read the alarm message(s) at the top of the alarm screen. Each additional press of the alarm button (while
you’re still looking at the alarm screen) “notices” the alarm(s), one at a time.
SJB Box (Scale Junction Box)
The SJB Box translates information from the Loadcells to the LCI. Each SJB can be connected to a maximum
of 6 Loadcells. A maximum of two SJB’s can be connected to the LCI.
Screen 1: Current Weight
Screen 1 (Figure 9) shows a brief summary of the current conditions of the house. There are no editable values
in this screen; it is for viewing only.
1.
Silo Bin 1- The current weight in Bin #1.
2. Silo Bin 2- The current weight in Bin #2.
3. Check Alarms- This will appear (flashing) if the LCI detects an alarm condition. This will continue
to appear until the condition is corrected and noticed.
4. Date and Time- Current date and time.
Screen 2: Alarms
At the top of Screen 2, all current alarm conditions will be
listed. If there are no alarm conditions, the status of the alarm
will show at the top of the screen. The three possible statuses
are ENABLED, DISABLED, and TEST. The status field is
editable. See the "Alarms" section of this manual for more
alarm information.
1. For this example, a power failure has occurred and
recovered; this information is at the top of the screen
and will remain there until the alarm is NOTICED.
2. The time, date and type of alarm of the most recent
10 alarms are listed in the lower part of the screen.
