The default setting for the system is for manual clearing of alarms. However,
the system can be set to clear alarms automatically after a designated period
of time. This is known as
automatic alarm acknowledgment
. This procedure
is covered in chapter 5. No action is required by the operator to clear alarms
when automatic alarm acknowledgment is enabled.
Press the
Clear
button on the primary T
OUCH
T
RACKER
to manually clear the
alarm whose information appears on the LCD and whose video appears on
the called monitor. When you clear an alarm, its associated output returns to
its original state, and its information clears from the LCD. Continue to press
Clear
until all active alarms have been acknowledged.

alarm came in, it will restart the Sequence from the beginning. Otherwise, the
T

T
RACKER
returns to camera control mode.
