A.5 Testing
Alarms
In the Service section of the Main Screen and
Unit Screens, the operator is able to test each
alarm and shutdown event. When an alarm/
shutdown event is selected to test, the actual
alarm/shutdown is latched. At this point, the
system responds as if an actual alarm/shutdown
has occurred.
For an alarm/shutdown event, the following will
occur (in addition to the pump shutting down for
a shutdown event):
• The horn will initiate.
• All appropriate control screens will show the
alarm/shutdown condition.
• An alarm/shutdown signal will be sent to the
Master alarms.
• The operator must respond and reset the
alarm/shutdown signal by pressing the “re-
set” button on the appropriate main screen
or unit screen.
• A History item will be created that shows the
“Test” alarm/shutdown event and a subse-
quent event for the correction of the “Test”
item.
