intended to alert the user.
Events are silent status information that are recorded into the Event log. Example =
"Battery charging".
Alarms are recorded into the Event log and displayed on the LCD status screen with
the logo blinking. Some alarms may be announced by a beep every 1 second.
Example = "Battery low".
Faults are announced by a continuous beep and red LED, recorded into the Event
log. Example = Out. short circuit.
