Error & Warning Event Output
Error & Warning Event Outputs are determined by a non-
latching relay in conjunction with the External Alarm Trigger
List configured in the External Alarm setup screen. If an
event in the External Alarm Trigger Lists is triggered or if the
power is turned off, the relay will switch to T5 immediately.
Tissue Processing Output
Tissue Processing Output is determined by a double-winding
latching relay in conjunction with the Tissue Processing
screen. The relay is always in T2 until the Tissue Processing
screen displays, then it switches to T3 (Figure 3-FF). If power
is lost during tissue processing, the relay will stay in the T3
position until power is restored and tissue processing is
complete.
