Resetting an alarm removes that alarm from the Alarm display and the Active alarms screen, and turns
off the visual and audible alerts. An active alarm should only be reset after the situation that caused the
alarm has been attended to. If the alarm condition has not been corrected, the alarm will activate again.
The Astral device may automatically clear an alarm when the condition that triggered the alarm is
corrected. When an alarm is cleared it no longer displays in the Active alarms screen and the audible and
visual alerts cease.
When an alarm is cleared or manually reset, the Alarm display then shows the next highest priority active
alarm.
