Figure 4-25: “Alarms” submenu
Limit
Field type: Decimal number
A limit value can be set here for each alarm at the selected input to trigger on either a rising or
falling input signal.
Note: Please ensure that the correct decimal point is used (i.e. dot . or comma). If
not, the value entered is not interpreted as intended by the operator.
In this field, it is also possible to deactivate an alarm. Doing so deletes the contents of the field.
Upper limit (Rising/falling)
Field type: Option
For each alarm at the selected input, set whether the alarm will trip when the signal is rising or
falling. If this check box is enabled it is a rising alarm, if not checked, it is a falling alarm.
Latched
Field type: Check box
The alarm is latching if the check box is enabled, if not, it is non-latching.
This feature has an effect on the behaviour of the MDO front panel LEDs, what is shown in the
“Measure” menu, and on the relay outputs assigned to an alarm.
Set output
Field type: Selection field
These fields contain a list of available relay outputs. Set relay outputs here that will be used in
case of an alarm, for the individual alarms at the selected input. Link to this after selecting a
relay output in a relay output assignment menu.
Relay output assignment menu
This menu is not a submenu of the input menu, but rather an independent menu that can only
be reached through the input menu.
It is used primarily to assign relay outputs that will be used if there is an alarm, for the individual
alarms at the input selected in the input menu.
