Major Alarm Pickup Delay:
Once an abnormal condition is detected, as programmed in the Alarm Configurations below, the
pickup timer can be set to delay the Major Alarm indication from 0 to 30 seconds in 125ms
increments. A SOE record is generated as soon as the event occurs, regardless of the delay setting.
Major Alarm Dropout Delay:
Once an abnormal condition ceases, the dropout timer can be set to delay the ending of the Major
Alarm indication from 0 to 30 seconds in 125ms increments. A SOE record is generated as soon as the
event ends, regardless of the delay setting.
Minor Alarm Pickup Delay:
Once an abnormal condition is detected, as programmed in the Alarm Configurations below, the
pickup timer can be set to delay the Minor Alarm indication from 0 to 30 seconds in 125ms
increments. A SOE record is generated as soon as the event occurs, regardless of the delay setting.
Minor Alarm Dropout Delay:
Once an abnormal condition ceases, the dropout timer can be set to delay the ending of the Minor
Alarm indication from 0 to 30 seconds in 125ms increments. A SOE record is generated as soon as the
event ends, regardless of the delay setting.
Note: The Alarm Relays normal operating mode is energized; an alarm will be issued in an un-
energized state.
Logic Bus Error:
Will go active if a problem is detected on the logic bus. Always review the logic configuration to
ensure that no bits are being driven by more than one source.
Comm Bus 1/2:
Comm Bus 1 or Comm Bus 2 alarm will be activated if the signal is invalid. The Comms busses
should be configured before setting the alarm source. An un-configured comm bus will cause the
alarm to go active.
Logic Test Mode Active:
This alarm will become active if the user enters a logic test mode (forcing an input active for example).
Over/Under Voltage Alarm:
Alarm goes active when a power supply output voltage is measured to be outside of the acceptable
range.
HMI Output Alarm:
Assigned Output0 or Output1 on internal schematic can be mapped to an alarm that will trigger alarms
visible on the web page. (0 = No Alarm, 1 = Alarm)
Clock Quality:
Alarm will become active if the expected clock source is not synchronized. Note, source set on the
“Time Settings” web page.
