CHANGING THE ALARM SETTINGS
The Edit Alarms screen presents three user-configurable alarm conditions: Duty
Cycle, Short Cycle Time, and Alarm Relay #3 settings. They can be changed all
at once, as desired, or individually, independent of the others. Each of the alarm
conditions shown on the Edit Alarms screen has already been configured at the
factory, but each can be user-configured for your individual preferences.
The default alarm settings will signal the operator when something major is
wrong with the system. However, these same settings can be user-configured to
signal a change in the system about which the operator should know before a
larger problem develops. If, for instance, your system normally runs at a 5%
Duty Cycle (DCycl on the screen), which is to say that the compressor is actually
actively engaged in the act of pumping 5% of the time, but then starts running at
a 10% or 15% Duty Cycle, this kind of change is something the operator should
want to know about, regardless of the specific cause or causes. The same is
true for Short Cycle Time (SCTim on the screen). If the compressor starts
pumping too often within a certain period of time, this, too, signals a change in
the system which needs to be investigated.
To change the Duty Cycle Alarm setting, perform the steps below.
