response, the appropriate alarm must be enabled, i.e. set ON.
Some alarm triggering levels can be adjusted
Alarm No 9 (overtemperature ), with temperature limit setting
Alarm No 10 (voltage distortion ), with THD(U) limit setting
An alarm can be reset by an extended pressure of key, this clears all passive alarms.
