alternately “LE” and the alarm action.

there until a correct target echo is recovered. The display flashes
alternately “LE” and the last valid reading.
Lo The current on the two wire loop will decrease to 3.6 mA and remain
there until a correct target echo is recovered. The display flashes
alternately “LE” and the alarm action.
