          - When the unit is turned off 
          - When the unit enters the setting mode 
 

 

          Note: The function cannot be used in combination with the MAX/MIN function. 

 
   ○ Alarm function 

If the measured value exceeds or falls below the alarm value, the ALARM light flashes and notifies 
the user via the contact output. Upper and lower limit alarm values can be separately set. 
For setting the alarm, refer to "Setting mode" on page 10.

 

 
 
 
 
 
             Alarm operation conditions:  Upper limit alarm: Measured value 

 Alarm value 

                                                           Lower limit alarm: Measured value 

Alarm value 

 
      The alarm operation on the unit has a hysteresis of 1 hPa for protection of alarm devices. 
      The alarm operation is cleared under the following conditions: 
 
           Alarm clearing conditions: Upper limit alarm: Measured value 

alarm value – 1 hPa 

 

Lower limit alarm: Measured value 

alarm value + 1 hPa 

 
          * Operation example (upper limit alarm is set to 1050 hPa): 
                    The alarm operation is activated when the measured value is 1050.00 hPa or higher. 
                    The alarm is cleared when the measured value is equal to 1049.00 hPa or less. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Note: The alarm operation is retained while the maximum, minimum or relative value is being 

displayed. 

 

The alarm is triggered based on the measured value even while the maximum, minimum or 
relative value is being displayed. 

 

Note: The alarm operation is cancelled while in the setting mode. The alarm operation resumes 

when the unit is returned to the measuring mode.
