Note.
The following parameters are applicable to delayed process alarms only – see Fig. 7.15,
Trip
Set the value, in engineering units, at which the alarm is to activate.
Hysteresis/Delay time
Hysteresis
Set the hysteresis value in engineering units.
Delay time
Set the delay time in seconds.
The delay time is the period of time for which alarm activation is delayed
after the enable signal is switched on. Once the delay time has expired,
the alarm operates in the same way as a standard high / low process
alarm.
Note.
The following parameters are applicable to rate alarms only – see Fig. 7.14, page 97.
Deviation/Period
Note.
A Rate alarm remains active until the rate has been within limits for
at least one complete Alarm Period.
Deviation
Set the minimum or maximum amount of deviation allowed within the
Rate Alarm Period before the alarm is activated.
Period
Set the time period over which the deviation is measured. For High Rate
alarms, the alarm becomes active if the value changes by more than the
deviation value within the alarm period. For Low Rate alarms, the alarm
becomes active if the channel value changes by less than the deviation
within the alarm period.
Rate filter
Set the filter time to be used to reduce the number of spurious alarm trips.
The signal source is averaged over the filter period prior to the rate alarm
being determined.
