Method of selecting light alarm causes
The causes of the light alarm that can be selected are allocated to 0 to 15 bits as shown below, and
are set and displayed in hexadecimals.
By setting the bit corresponding to the cause to be selected to 1, the concerned cause can be treat-
ed as a light alarm.
