If the ALARM MUTE button is pressed, the Horn output will be deactivated; however the
existing alarms will persist and disable the operation of the genset.
Alarms operate in a first occurring basis:
-If an alarm is present, following alarms, load_dumps and warnings will not be accepted,
-If a load_dump is present, following load_dumps and warnings will not be accepted,
-If a warning is present, following warnings will not be accepted.
Alarms may be of LATCHING type following programming. For latching alarms, even if the alarm
condition is removed, the alarms will stay on and disable the operation of the genset. The existing
alarms
may be canceled
by pressing one of the operating mode buttons (
LOAD TEST / TEST / OFF / AUTO
).
Most of the alarms have programmable trip levels. See the programming chapter for adjustable
alarm limits.
