3-6 Process Alarms
The output 2 will perform process alarm function and PV.H.A or PV.L.A for
AL.FN. If PV.H.A is selected the alarm will perform process high alarm. If
PV.L.A is selected the alarm will perform process low alarm. The process
alarm sets an absolute trigger level. When the process exceeds that
absolute trigger level an alarm occurs. The trigger level is determined
by SP2 (Set point 2 value) and AL.HY (Alarm hysteresis value). The
hysteresis value is introduced to avoid interference action of alarm in a
noisy environment. Normally AL.HY can be set with a minimum
value(0.1).
There are two types of alarm mode can be selected, these are: normal
alarm and latching alarm.
Normal Alarm: AL.MD= NORM
When a normal alarm is selected, the alarm output is de-energized in
the non-alarm condition and energized in an alarm condition.
Normal Alarm: AL.MD= NORM
Latching Alarm: AL.MD= LTCH
If a latching alarm is selected, once the alarm output is energized, it will
remain unchanged even if the alarm condition has been cleared
unless the power is shut off or the RESET key (or remote reset button) is
pressed.
Latching Alarm: AL.MD= LTCH
Failure Transfer: AL.FT = OFF or ON
In case of Sensor Break or A-D Failure occurs, the alarm output will be on
or off according to the selection of AL.FT.
Failure Transfer: AL.FT = OFF or ON
Sensor Break
A-D Failure
SP2 = 200
AL.MD = NORM
Examples:
Examples:
AL.HY = 10.0
AL.FN = PV.H.A
Trigger levels for process high alarm are SP2 and SP2 AL.HY.
Trigger level for process low alarm are SP2+AL.HY and Sp2.
