Setting Major and Minor Alarm Threshold Limits
The alarm parameters listed in Table 4.4 have four adjustable alarm thresholds and a fixed
deadband value associated with each parameter. Alarms generated by the status monitoring
circuit are based on which thresholds have been exceeded. Figure 4.7 shows the four
threshold levels and the corresponding alarms.

Threshold/Alarm
Diagram
The factory-default threshold and deadband values for each parameter are listed in
Table 4.4. A deadband or hysteresis value prevents alarm oscillation. Once a threshold is
exceeded, the alarm can only be downgraded if the parameter is at least a deadband below
the threshold value.
