(c) Wait alert
Choosing the wait alert ignores the alert status if the process value
(PV)/deviation is in that status when the setting mode is changed to the
operation mode, and makes the alert function invalid until the process value
comes out of the alert status once.
Example: Selecting the lower limit deviation alert with wait makes the alert
function invalid until the process value exceeds the alert set
value.

POINT
When the system has reached the non-alert status even once after an alert
judgment start following the setting of the alert mode, the alert function with wait will
be invalid if you choose the mode with wait.
(d) Re-wait alert
The re-wait alert is a wait alert-based feature which has the additional
function to make the alert function invalid again when the set value (SV) is
changed.
For set value changing control, choosing the re-wait alert avoids the alarm
status reached when the set value is changed.
Example: If the measured value (PV) is at the position as shown below
before the setting is changed, changing the set value (SV) for
deviation alert will put the process value in the alert region and
turn on the alert. To prevent this, the function makes the alert wait
operation valid and the alert output to wait.
