Audible and Visible Alarm Function
An incoming alarm will is displayed on the CRS+ panel with the ALARM LED, and an alarm sound. There are
two types of alarms:
• Continuous alarms
• Pulse alarms.
Pulse alarms directly generate a phone call, continuous alarms generate a phone call after a certain
(programmable) time.
All active alarms are shown on the CRS+ display.
Telephone Calls
If an alarm continues for a specified period of time and if a priority was set, a telephone call will be made.
Generation of telephone calls within a preset time (day or night) can be set for each alarm. A maximum of 5
alarms can be reported sequentially during each telephone call. Alarms during the night will be reported to the
user at the transfer of night to day time.
Alarm Resets
When an alarm is reset it immediately suppresses the alarm. The alarm is still present but neither the alarm
buzzer or the telephone call are activated.
Alarms can be reset as follows:
• Hotkey "
RESET" on the CRS+ control panel
• Via telephone.
If a new alarm occurs after the alarms have been reset, the alarm buzzer becomes active again.
Confirmation of alarms
Each alarm on the robot must be acknowledged by the user. The cause of the alarm must then be removed.
