7.4 Alarm Types
The Sterilization Unit control is equipped with four alarm types as follows:
NOTE:
The operator may abort any cycle before scheduled completion by simply pressing the Abort Touch Pad (Inverted Red
Triangle).
1. Alert alarm informs user of an issue but does not abort cycle. New cycles are permitted to start.
2. Abort alarm informs user of an issue and aborts any active cycle. New cycles are allowed to start.
3. Abort-prevent alarm informs user of an issue and aborts any active cycle. New cycles are not allowed to start.
System functions as if in standby mode. Abort-prevent proceeds as follows:
a. If cycle was in a phase before Sterilize, performs an air break and completes cycle.
b. If cycle was in Sterilize or Aeration Phase, performs aeration until cycle completes.
4. Halt alarm informs user of an issue and immediately stops cycle. New cycles are prevented until machine is
serviced. Halt proceeds as follows:
a. If in aerate phase when alarm occurs, phase completes. Then control turns OFF all digital outputs other
than fan.
