Testing

Minor alarm and diagnostic messages routinely appear on the HLU-231 
front-panel four-character display.  This display automatically turns on when 
power is initially applied to the HLU-231.  To conserve power, the display  
remains on for only five minutes if neither the MODE or SEL buttons are 
pressed.  The use of either button activates the four-character display and 
restarts the 5-minute power-control timer.

Alarms

Only one alarm can be displayed at a time, so the highest priority alarm is dis-
played if more than one alarm exists.  The following table lists the alarms 
ordered by priority:
