Creating a New Custom Alarm

In addition to editing an alarm, you can also create new custom alarms by

 

performing two steps:

Create the custom alarm.

 

2.

To use custom alarms, you must first create a custom alarm and then set up the alarm to be used by the circuit monitor. Creating an alarm defines information about the alarm including:

Alarm group (standard, high speed, disturbance, digital, or boolean)

Name of the alarm

Type (such as whether it alarms on an over or under condition)

Register number of the value that will be alarmed upon

To create an alarm, follow these steps:

1.From the Main Menu, select Setup > Alarm > Create Custom. The Create Custom screen displays.
