Full Sequence Descriptions 

The following section describes the operation of the 
various sequences available in the Series AN24/AN28 
alarm annunciator. 

Features 

Acknowledge Pushbutton:

 Momentary alarms will 

not clear until the alarmed channels have been 
acknowledged with the 

ACK

 pushbutton. This will 

also reset the first out indication. Used in all ISA 
sequences. 

Automatic Reset:

 Acknowledged momentary alarms 

will clear automatically when the inputs return to 
normal. The automatic reset is present in all 
automatic (A) sequences. 

First-Out Indication:

 The sequence provides a 

distinct visual indication for the first channel to alarm. 

First-Out Reset Pushbutton: 

Resets the first-out 

display and assigns the first-out channel to display as 
a subsequent alarm without any other changes to the 
sequence. The next alarm input will be a new first-out 
alarm. Used only in sequence F3A. 

Reset Pushbutton:

 Acknowledged momentary 

alarms will only clear when reset with the 

RESET

 

pushbutton. Used in any manual reset (M) sequence. 

Sequence Condition Descriptions 

The following terms are used in describing the 
sequence behavior in the following tables: 

Alert:

 The input is in alarm state, and the channel has 

not been acknowledged with the 

ACK

 pushbutton. 

Acknowledge:

 The alarm state is acknowledged with 

the 

ACK

 pushbutton. This will restart the first-out 

indication. 

First Out Reset (F3A Only):

 The 

RESET

 pushbutton 

is used to reset the first-out indication only.

 

Normal:

 Inputs are in the normal state. 

LED Condition Descriptions 

1

st

 Pt: 

Indicates the behavior of the first-out channel 

only. 

Next Pt: 

The behavior of subsequent alarm channels; 

channels that enter the alarm state after the first-out 
alarm.

. 

Relay 1 Operation 

Relay 1 enters alarm state when there is a new alarm. 
This relay will clear when the alarms are acknowledged. 

Relay 2 Operation

 

Relay 2 enters alarm state when any channel displays in 
alarm state. This relay will clear when all indication 
LEDs are cleared.
