5.3 Using Alarms
You can activate one of the Magna-Mike 8600 alarm modes to help you identify when
the actual thickness measurement is above or below editable reference values.
When an alarm condition occurs, the Magna-Mike 8600 warns you as follows:
•The HI or LOW alarm indicator flashes in the top right-hand corner of the
measurement screen (see Figure 5-5 on page 96).
• The thickness value also appears in red during an alarm condition.
• When the beeper is active (see “Setting the User Interface Language and Other
System Options” on page 51), the Magna-Mike 8600 emits an alarm beep.
The thickness value and alarm indicator appear in color only when the indoors color
scheme is active (see “Color Schemes” on page 55 to change the color scheme).
