Alarms
In case of an alarm:
- The red alarm status light will be lit / blinking, and
- an audible alarm will be generated:
- as a continuous or intermittent audible alarm
(WARNINGS)
or
- as a 30 second chirp (Advisory), and
- an alarm message will be displayed on the 2nd line
of the display.
● Evaluate audible alarm:
either: continuous or intermittent audible alarm
= urgent, immediate action required!
or: every 30-seconds = advisory reminder
