You can independently configure alarm input ports (0 to 3) to operate in Normally Open
or Normally Closed mode, and to trigger a red alarm condition or a yellow alarm condition,
or to ignore alarm conditions.
You can independently configure alarm output ports (0 and 1) to relay alarm information
when the system condition goes to a red or yellow alarm condition and when the alarm
output port is configured to trigger based on alarm input condition. Alarm output ports
(2 and 3) are used to indicate major and minor system alarms and are normally in open
mode.
