Alarm Output (
alrnm
)
Rate high alarm trip point:
program set point above reset point.
Rate low alarm trip point:
program set point below reset point.
Rate alarm deadband is determined by the difference between set and reset
points. Minimum deadband is one display count. If set and reset points are pro-
grammed the same, output will reset one count below set point.
Total alarm trip point:
program total set point. Alarm reset is triggered by total
reset (There is no reset parameter entered for total). If automatic total reset is
enabled, this setting will be the trigger point for the timer.
It is not necessary to
have the output wired for automatic reset function to work.
To acknowledge an alarm, press the
Enter
button once for acknowledge prompt
and a second time to confirm.
Pulse Output K-Factor (
Pulse
)
The pulse output K-factor corresponds to the total units (e.g. gallons) needed to
generate one pulse. For example, if the K-factor value is set to 10, one pulse is
generated for every 10 counts incremented on the display.
If the pulse output exceeds the programmed output frequency, pulses are
accumulated as pending. Pulses will continue to output until the buffer is emptied or
the total is reset from the front panel.
