Dout State (for 6450/6600)
Dout State refers to the relay output status, which can be configured to change upon the occurrence of certain
system events through Auto Warning Settings under System Management. You may click Dout State
under System Status to display a list of events that may cause a change to the Dout state. If a configured
alarm event occurs, the alarm LED lights up and the Dout state changes, and you may come to this screen to
determine the specific cause for the alarm. To reset the Dout state, click on Acknowledge Event. Note that the
alarm LED will remain unchanged until the actual event has been resolved.
