HIGH/LOW POPULATION ALARMS
The High and Low Alarm option sets the high and low population
limit values. The entered value is dependent on the target rate.
The High and Low Alarms are entered as a percentage.
The percentage value is referenced in relation to the
Target Rate x Seed/Lb setting.
HIGH ALARM EXAMPLE:
If the Target Rate is 100.0 x 30 KS/AC and the High Alarm is
5.0%, multiply 30 KS/AC x 1.05 (a 5% increase) = 31.5 KS/AC.
The alarm will activate at this rate.
LOW ALARM EXAMPLE:
If the Target Rate is 30 KS/AC and the Low Alarm is 5.0%,
multiply 30 KS/AC x.95 (a 5% decrease) = 28.5 KS/AC.
The alarm will activate at this rate.
NOTE
Population is updated every 5 seconds. Setting the Alarm
Delay for under 5 second intervals does not provide any delay
at all.
HIGH/LOW ALARM DELAY
Establishes the delay between the detection of a high or low
population alarm condition and the resulting alarm display. The
value is entered in seconds. If the value is set to 10, a row must
be in a high or low population alarm condition continuously for
10 seconds before the alarm is issued.
