Auto acknowledge and alarm inhibit
Auto acknowledge
Alarms are auto-acknowledged when the alarm becomes inactive.
Inhibit
In order to select when the alarms are to be active, a configurable inhibit setting for every alarm
can be made. The inhibit functionality is only available via the PC utility software. Most of the
alarms have a drop-down window where it is possible to select which signals that have to be
present in order to inhibit the alarm.
In this example, inhibit is set to Not run status.
Here, the alarm will only be active when the
generator has started and running feedback is
present.
