Introduction
1.11Typical Sequence
Figure 4 shows a typical sequence of how the Universal Monitor functions after detecting a change in a monitored unit or area. Many responses depend on configuration settings. This example shows what happens when an analog sensor input reaches a high setpoint—assuming the input is defined as alarmable and is set up to trigger a response in an output—and when the condition returns to normal.
Figure 4 Example of typical sequence: Analog input reaches high setpoint
RESPONSES TO AN ALARM
ALARM CONDITION DETECTED The temperature in a monitored analog input reaches its high setpoint.
The horn sounds (audible horn on the controller
RETURN-TO-NORMAL SEQUENCE
RETURN TO NORMAL
The temperature in the monitored analog input returns to a normal range (below the high setpoint).
The alarm is cleared (automatically if Unlatched; must be cleared manually if Latched)
The horn stops sounding
(if user hasn’t silenced it)
