MAINTENANCE 

MAINTENANCE MODE should always be 
ON when working on equipment that 
could be remotely activated. In this 
mode, remote sites are locked out. This 
setting can only be changed for the local 
site, so it is important to reset to OFF 

before leaving the site. 

Macros will continue to run while a unit is in maintenance mode. However, any commands driven by macros will 
not be issued. The If Maint Mode macro command can be used to test maintenance mode status (see ARC Plus 
Version 3 manual for details). 

SITE LIMITS controls the alarm mutes for all channels. You may wish to turn this OFF to suppress alarm reporting 
during maintenance. This setting can also be changed remotely. 

 

CONFIGURATION MENU 

Press

 CONFIG 

from the main menu to select the

 CONFIGURATION 

sub-menu for the following functions.

 

METER MUTES 

Alarm muting permits testing or abnormal operation without triggering 
alarms. From the main menu, press CONFIG then METER MUTES. Find the 
desired channel using the scroll buttons as needed, press the channel then 
press ENABLE or MUTE as appropriate. Meter mutes may be set on any 
connected site. 

Be sure to restore mutes when normal operation is resumed. 

STATUS MUTES 

Alarm muting permits testing or abnormal operation without triggering 
alarms. From the main menu, press CONFIG then STATUS MUTES. Find the 
desired channel using the scroll buttons as needed, press the channel then 
press ENABLE or MUTE as appropriate. Status mutes may be set on any 
connected site. 

Be sure to restore mutes when normal operation is resumed. 

 

 

 

Never depend on the 

remote control  for 

personal safety. 

Always remove power 

before performing 

maintenance.
