4.6 Alarm Behavior
4.6.1 Alarm Priority
From lowest to highest, the alarm priority is as follows: Awareness Alarm, Alarm 1, Alarm 2, Alarm 3, Trouble Fault.
For example, the trouble condition has the highest priority. Therefore, when there is an occurrence of an alarm and

condition.
4.6.2 Display turned “On”
With the display function turned “On”,
