10.5.1 Switching ON/OFF of alarm generator and indicator LEDs

As per requirement, the alarm can also be completely turned off. The device is supplied with 
alarm in switched on condition.

Operation of keys 

View of display

By keeping the Enter - key in pressed condition 
till "Off" appears on the upper display line. The 

alarm is now completely switched off.

  

By  again  holding  the  Enter  -  key  in  pressed 
condition, the alarm is switched on again. As a 

result, the message "ON" appears on the upper 
display line..

10.5.2 Behaviour during alarm

In case an early warning alarm or main alarm value is reached, the user is informed through 

different warning signals :

Feedback of the Device

View of display

On reaching the early warning alarm value :

The  message  "PRE"  appears  on  the  display  at  a  gap  of 

approx. 3 seconds. The acoustic signal and the LEDs are not 
activated during early warning alarm.

 

On reaching the main alarm value :

The  message  "ALR"  appears  on  the  display  at  a  gap  of 

approx.  3  seconds.  If  the  alarm  generator  is  switched  on, 
additionally  an  acoustic  signal  is  given  out  and  the  warning 

LEDs also blink.

If an external alarm light is connected to the device, it is also 

activated.
