latching or nonlatching, and either failsafe or nonfailsafe, or, they can be defeated altogether. The setpoints for the alarms are also established using this function.

Decide how your alarms should be configured. The choice will depend upon your process. Consider the following four points:

1.Which if any of the alarms are to be high alarms and which if any are to be low alarms?

Setting an alarm as HIGH triggers the alarm when the oxygen concentration rises above the setpoint. Setting an alarm as LOW triggers the alarm when the oxygen concentration falls below the setpoint.

Decide whether you want the alarms to be set as:

Both high (high and high-high) alarms, or

One high and one low alarm, or

Both low (low and low-low) alarms.

2.Are either or both of the alarms to be configured as failsafe?

In failsafe mode, the alarm relay de-energizes in an alarm condition. For nonfailsafe operation, the relay is energized in an alarm condition. You can set either or both of the concentration alarms to operate in failsafe or nonfailsafe mode.

3.Are either of the alarms to be latching?

In latching mode, once the alarm or alarms trigger, they will remain in the alarm mode even if process conditions revert back to no-alarm conditions. This mode requires an alarm to be recognized before it can be reset. In the nonlatching mode, the alarm status will terminate when process conditions revert to no- alarm conditions.

4.Are either of the alarms to be defeated?

The defeat alarm mode is incorporated into the alarm circuit so that maintenance can be performed under conditions which would normally activate the alarms.

The defeat function can also be used to reset a latched alarm. (See procedures, below.)

If you are using password protection, you will need to enter your password to access the alarm functions. Follow the instructions in Section

4.3.3to enter your password. Once you have clearance to proceed, enter the Alarm function.

Press the Alarm button on the front panel to enter the Alarm function. Make sure that AL–1is blinking.
