The Alarm Source column cannot be edited. It contains a simple list of
all possible parameters than can be configured to display an alarm on
the LCD.
The values in the “Units” column are derived from the measurement
units selected in the Display Units portion of the Display Setup screen.
See Section 5.6.2 to change the Display Units if necessary.
The Alarm DISPLAY limits configured here apply ONLY to the value of
the selected alarmed parameter that is DISPLAYED on the LCD. They
do NOT correspond to the limits associated with any analog or relay
outputs that may also be configured to output based on the value of
the same parameter.
This allows the user to set a tighter parameter value range to trigger a
VISUAL DISPLAY alarm
on a parameter that is outside ideal limits but
not far enough from ideal to warrant an analog output or relay (that has
been configured to monitor the same parameter) going into full alarm
status.
