Definition of the latching function:
The combination of latching function and automatic reset of the horn function cancels the effect of each other
and therefore is not admitted.

Acknowledging a latching relay in the menu “Status Relay” is only possible if the gas concentration is again
lower than the alarm threshold including hysteresis. In this case the status latching occurs in the display.
The respective switch-off delay is without effect when the latching mode is activated.

Horn Function
The horn function is only activated if at least one of the two parameters (time or digital input) is set. This
function has priority to the latching mode function.
The following possibilities to reset are available for the alarm relay as horn relay:
•
By pressing any of the 6 pushbuttons. (Only possible in the starting menu).
•
Automatic reset at the end of the preset time (active, if value >0).
•
By an external pushbutton. (Assignment of the appropriate digital input DI: 1-4).
After acknowledgment the horn remains permanently reset until all assigned alarms for this relay function are
inactive again. Not till then it is triggered anew in case of an alarm.
Special function Recurrence
After acknowledgment of the relay (by pushbutton or externally), the time starts. When this time has run out
and the alarm is still acting, the relay is set again.
