The system state, alarms and failures are shown on the control unit display.
In alarm and fault situations, the buzzer sounds an alarm and the relays are switched to the
alarm position.
The relays are of the failsafe type, which means that they also enter the alarm state when
operating power is lost.
The system settings can be changed with the device’s browser-based operating system via
a WLAN connection.
The operation of the product is described in more detail in the section Operation.
