Service tab
Use the service screen to send test alarms.  You may congure the 
alarm type and alarm action logic (1-8).  In addition, scheduled or 
repeat test alarms can be congured on this screen.   The internal 
alarm relay cam also be tested from this screen.
Disabled = No alarms will activate on this point
Log Only = When an alarm occurs on this alarm point it will only 
register in the AK-SM alarm log - no physical alarm output
Normal =  When alarm is active the output will be sent once 
(alarm may get re-triggered if the stop condition is set for repeat)
Severe = When alarm is active the output will get re-sent every 
xx min
Critical = Same as Severe but with separate re-trigger time - 
when alarm is active the output will get re-sent every xx min 
Delete = Removes any applied alarm settings
Select Alarm Action type (dened under Alarm routing)
Auto Test:
  Scheduled:  Congure days & time for test alarm
  Repeated:  Congure interval time for test alarm 
Suspend alarms generation (suspend All alarms in the 
system from being sent):  Set time period (min/Hrs) to 
stop alarms being sent
Any relays congured for alarm output can be forced on / 
o for testing purposes.  
    Remember to leave in Auto position after
   testing
Routing tab
The AK-SM utilizes an Alarm Action Matrix that allows a high 
degree of exibility for various alarm routing options. At the heart 
of the alarm conguration is the ‘Alarm Routing’ page, where dif-
ferent routing options can be dened, along with time delays and 
alarm output stop conditions. 
The central alarm action matrix allows various output options 
(known as alarm actions) and alarm handling conguration to be 
centrally assigned.  Once the alarm action matrix has been 
dened, any controller or I/O point can be given an alarm action 
number. The alarm action number corresponds to the appropri-
ate output. (as dened in the alarm routing page).  Alarm output 
options include;
• 5 external (AK I/O) relay outputs
• Local AK-SM buzzer
• Local AK-SM front LED
• Internal alarm relay
• 2 Network connections
• 6 IP / e-mail addresses (3 per alarm receiver) 
The following example can be seen as a guide to conguring your 
AK-SM alarm logic options;
