the alarms. Fig. 13 shows how the alarms work in n-on, n-off, off and on modes. Additional
manual working modes H-on and H-oFF enable to permanently activate or deactivate the
alarms. An additional REG operation mode has also been added to the alarm type
settings. In this mode, the alarm state is controlled via the RS-485 interface by MODBUS
protocol registers.
Designations used in the drawing:
•
AL_L – corresponds to PrL setting and determines the alarm state change lower
threshold.
•
AL_H – corresponds to PrH setting and determines the alarm state change upper
threshold.
Note:
It is important to keep in mind when configuring the alarms that the entered
threshold values should match the dependency AL_L < AL_P. Otherwise the
dependency will disable the alarms.
Additionally, the alarm functions include the programmable delays of alarm activation and
deactivation. The user can define how long the alarm event must last before the alarm
relay contacts are switched on and the minimum time of the alarm event end before the
relay contacts are switched off. Alarm delays prevent false alarms caused by a short-term
change of the measuring value, e.g. during the start-up.
The alarm event could be registered if the alarm memory is enabled.
