Priorities
Each alarm also has a priority level. Use the priorities to distinguish
between events that require immediate action and those that do not
require action.
• High priority—if a high priority alarm occurs, the display informs
you in two ways: the LED backlight on the display flashes until you
acknowledge the alarm and the alarm icon blinks while the alarm
is active.
• Medium priority—if a medium priority alarm occurs, the alarm
icon blinks only while the alarm is active. Once the alarm
becomes inactive, the alarm icon stops blinking and remains on
the display.
• Low priority—if a low priority alarm occurs, the alarm icon blinks
only while the alarm is active. Once the alarm becomes inactive,
the alarm icon disappears from the display.
• No priority—if an alarm is setup with no priority, no visible
representation will appear on the display. Alarms with no priority
are not entered in the Alarm Log. See Chapter 8—Logging for
alarm logging information.
If multiple alarms with different priorities are active at the same time,
the display shows the alarm message for the last alarm that occurred.
For instructions on setting up alarms from the meter display, see “Set
Up Alarms” on page 23.
