d. Set acknowledgement mode.
e. Set the hysteresis mode.
The hysteresis function defines an interval where a
triggered relay maintains its status until the gas
concentration is outside the defined interval. Example:
Alarm threshold is set to 40 ppm and hysteresis to
3 ppm The alarm stays active until the value falls
below 37 ppm. This prevents relays from chattering at
an alarm threshold.
