Alarm Description

VAR RATE

1

When Variable Rate Change alarm is enabled, visual and audible alarms will occur 
for 4 seconds to indicate that a valid rate change string has changed the target rate. 
Function acts independent of audible alarm setting.

BIN LEVL

1

When Bin Level Alarm (Granular mode only) is enabled, alarm occurs to indicate low 
bin level (See 

Vacuum or Bin Level Alarm

 section on page 42).

VAC ERR

1

When Vacuum Alarm (liquid chemical injection mode only) is enabled, alarm occurs 
to indicate a vacuum error (See 

Vacuum or Bin Level Alarm

 section on page 42).

FLOW SW

1

When Flow Switch Monitor Alarm (liquid chemical injection mode only) is enabled, 
alarm occurs to indicate out of tolerance difference between flow switch monitor and 
flow reading (See 

Dual Sensor Alarm %

 section on page 42).

LOW LIM

2

When a Low Flow Rate Limit is entered, alarm occurs to indicate that volume/minute 
has dropped below low limit (automatic mode only). (See 

Low Flow Limit

 section on 

page 41).

DUAL FLOW

2

When programmed in Gran 3, Dual Flow Alarm will occur when difference between 
dual encoder readings becomes out of tolerance (See 

Dual Sensor Alarm %

 section 

on page 42).

OFF RATE

3

Alarm occurs when volume/area rate is out of tolerance from the target application 
rate for more than 5 seconds (See 

Off Rate %

 section on page 39).

LOW LEVL

4

When a Low Tank value is entered, alarm will occur when volume/tank is less than 
Low Tank limit (See
