A.4.3  Sensor Object
The sensor object has one network variable input and eleven network variable outputs.
nviResetAlm input
This network variable causes latching alarms and faults to be reset. The reset will only take place if 
thecauseofthefaultoralarmnolongerexists.Additionally,theresetonlyoccurswhenanon-zero
update is sent to this input. 
This means that sending an ST_LOW to this input once will not have any effect on alarms or faults 
that occur later. This input resets both the local relays and LonWorks network variables.
nvoAlmL output
This network variable normally has the value ST_OFF. When a level 1 alarm exists the alarm1 relay 
will be activated and this output will have the value ST_LOW. 
When a level 2 alarm exists the alarm2 relay will be activated and this will produce ST_MED.
nvoAlm2 output
This variable normally has the value ST_OFF. When a level 2 alarm exists this will have the value 
ST_MED. 
This network variable is provide for use with common shutdown relays that are not capable of 
discriminating between ST_LOW and ST_MED in installations where discrimination between alarm1 
and alarm2 is desired.
nvoAlarmThresh1 and nvoAlarmThresh2 outputs
These network variables indicate the current alarm thresholds of this instrument. Gas concentrations 
greater than the amount reported in these variables will cause the alarms to activate. See the related 
subsequent discussion of nviHighLim1 and nviHighLim2. 
The units are the same as the front panel display and will be indicated by nvoConcType, below. The 
units will be ppm, %LEL and %V/V respectively when gas sensor cartridges for toxic, explosive and 
oxygen gasses are installed. 
For example if an H
2
 cartridge is installed and nvoAlarmThresh1 is 50.00, this means that alarm1 will 
activate when the H
2
 concentrations exceeds 20,000 ppm since LEL for H
2
 is 40,000 ppm.
