NOTE: You must use ION Setup to create logic and custom (Cust1s) alarms. After the alarm is created, you can use ION Setup or the meter display to modify the alarm parameters.

NOTE: If you used ION Setup to program decimal values on a standard (1-Sec) alarm, do not use the meter display to make subsequent changes to any alarm parameters (inculding enable/disable), as doing so will cause removal of all decimals previously programmed through ION Setup.
