Respond to Alarms

Respond to Alarms

When an alarm is triggered, the Main Module alerts you through the display by the following methods:

Alarm beeper

Major or minor alarm LED

Active alarm screen

Alarm and event logs

Major or minor alarm LEDs

When an alarm is triggered, the Check Log LED and either the Minor Alarm LED or the Major Alarm LED activates. The Major and Minor Alarm LEDs cannot be deactivated manually; the alarm condition must be cleared to deactivate them.

Control beeper

Path: Main > Respond to Alarms

An active alarm creates a beeping sound from the display. This sound continues until you view the Respond to Alarms menu.

Beeper. To disable the beeper for all future alarms, set the Beeper setting to Disabled.

Beeper Volume. Set the volume of the beeper and key-click to high, medium, or low.

View active alarms

Path: Main > Respond to Alarms > View Active Alarms

The Active Alarms screen also appears on the scrolling status screens. It provides the number of the alarm (e.g., 1 of 2), a description of the condition, and a time-stamp indicating when the alarm occurred. Press the ENTER key to view details of the alarm, or press the arrow keys to view the rest of the list.

See “Entire Log” on page 51 for more information on the alarm/event details screens.

Clear active alarms

Path: Main > Respond to Alarms > Clear Active Alarms

Clears all active alarms. If the conditions that caused the alarm still exist, those conditions cause the alarm to be regenerated.

Clear System Alarms – Clear active alarms that apply to the Modules in this System.

Clear Group Alarms – Clear active alarms that apply to the Group.

Reset System failure

Path: Main > Respond to Alarms > Reset Sys Failure

Reset a System after a failure event has occurred. If the condition that caused the failure still exists, the System will fail again. A System will not restart after a failure until this command is executed.

Note: A System must be reset only if it is part of a Group. Stand-alone Systems will not go into the failure state.
