Fault Action
Frequency Output Fault Action controls the behavior of the Frequency Output if the transmitter detects a
fault condition.
Important
• The fault action is implemented only if Alert Severity is set to Failure. If Alert Severity is set to any other
option, the fault action is not implemented.
