With normal selection, the alarm annunciator indicates an “on” alarm
output 1. With reverse selection, the alarm annunciator indicates an “off”
alarm output 1.
In Automatic mode, an energized alarm turns off automatically after the
Temperature/Process value leaves the alarm region. In Latched mode, an
energized alarm requires an 1 / 2 key or user input alarm reset to turn
off. After an alarm reset, the alarm remains off until the trigger point is
crossed again.

Standby prevents nuisance (typically low level) alarms after a power
up. After powering up the controller, the process must leave the alarm
region (enter normal non-alarm area of operation). After this has
occurred, the standby is disabled and the alarm responds normally until
the next controller power up.
The alarm values are entered as process units or degrees. They may
also be entered in the Parameter or Hidden Loops, when enabled in 3-LC.
When the alarm is configured as deviation or band acting, the associated
output tracks the Setpoint as it is changed. The value entered is the
offset or difference from the Setpoint at which the alarm condition will
occur.

AbI
Absolute High
(balanced hysteresis)
The alarm energizes when the Process
Value exceeds the alarm value + 1/2 the
hysteresis value.

Absolute Low
(balanced hysteresis)
The alarm energizes when the Process
Value falls below the alarm value -1/2 the
hysteresis value.

Absolute High
(unbalanced hysteresis)
The alarm energizes when the Process
Value exceeds the alarm value.

(unbalanced hysteresis)
The alarm energizes when the Process
Value falls below the alarm value.

Pr
Profile Error Band Timeout
The alarm energizes when the process
remains outside the error band longer than
the allowable time.

Current Break
The alarm energizes when insufficient
current is detected while the corresponding
control output activated.
oLd
Profile Holding
The alarm energizes when the controller is
in a Hold Phase.
rPuP
Ramping Up to Setpoint
The alarm energizes when the controller is
ramping up to setpoint.
rPdn
Ramping Down to Setpoint
The alarm energizes when the controller is
ramping down to setpoint.

Controller Running
The alarm energizes when the controller
profile is running.
PA
Controller Paused
The alarm energizes when the controller
profile is paused.
oP
Controller Stopped
The alarm energizes when the controller
profile is stopped.
