8.4.3 Alarm Output Actions
To avoid this, set the alarm delay and hysteresis for alarm canceling under the alarm output
conditions, as Figure 8.7 shows.
from the steady state and enters the alarm setpoint range.
If the measured value remains within the alarm setpoint range for a certain period of time (for the
preset delay time), an alarm will be issued. On the other hand, there will be a similar delay each
time the measured value returns to the steady state from the alarm setpoint range (canceling the
alarm status).
If hysteresis is set, alarms will be canceled when the measured value is less than or greater than
the preset hysteresis values.
If both the delay time and hysteresis are set, an alarm will be issued if the measured value is in
the alarm setpoint range and the delay time has elapsed.
For the alarm to be reset (canceled), the measured value must be beyond the preset hysteresis
value and the preset delay time must have elapsed.
Refer to Figure 8.7 for any further alarm output actions. The delayed time and hysteresis settings
are common to all alarm points.

.
A. Although the oxygen concentration value exceeds the high limit alarm setpoint, it falls below
alarm is issued.
B. The oxygen concentration value exceeds the high limit alarm setpoint and the delay time
elapses during that measurement. So, an alarm is issued.
C. Although the oxygen concentration value falls below the hysteresis set value, the value rises
again and exceeds the hysteresis set value before the preset delay time elapses. So, the
alarm is not canceled.
D. The oxygen concentration value falls below the hysteresis set value and the preset delay
time elapses, so the alarm is canceled.
