SET POINT
enters the engineering unit value where the alarm trips. It may be negative and trip when
monitored values fall out of range in this direction. A3 has a default setting of negative 10 with Low Trip
set for YES. This makes it function as a FAULT alarm and trip when the monitored value falls below
“
-10
”
.
It is important to ad ust this value when the transmitter’s span value is set for another value other than
100. For example, a typical span setting for monitoring oxygen level is 0-25.0(%), therefore the fault level
value should be adjusted to -2.5 which is equivalent to negative 10% of full scale.
DEAD-BAND
has a minimum value of 1% and a maximum value of 10%. It is useful for preventing alarm
cycling when the monitored value is hovering around the set point.
EXAMPLE: With a range of 0-100 ppm, if Dead-Band equals 5% and the set point is 20 ppm, after tripping
at 20 ppm the value must drop below 15 ppm to reset.
ON DELAY
allows entering a maximum 10 second delay before this alarm becomes active. This is useful
for preventing nuisance alarms caused by brief spikes beyond the set point.
OFF DELAY
allows entering a maximum 120 minute delay before clearing an alarm after the alarm
condition is gone. This is useful for continuing an alarm function, such as operation of an exhaust fan, for
a period of time after the alarm condition clears.
LOW TRIP
set to YES causes the alarm to trip as the value falls below the set point.
LATCHING
set to YES causes the alarm to remain active even after the condition is gone and only reset
when the UP / RESET key is pressed from a data display.
DISPLAY EVENT LOG
displays the stored events in the Event Log. These include power-on, cold-boot,
alarms and alarm acknowledge events. The event log stores the date and time of the most recent 300
events.
CLEAR EVENT LOG
clears the event log.
RS-485 COMMUNICATIONS
The RS-485 MODBUS SETUP menu allows setting the RTU address (if RS-485 equipped) for each GASMAX
on the RS-485 network. Each GASMAX must have a different RTU address when communicating on the
same 2-wire cable RS-485 loop. Baud rate, Parity and Stop Bit are fixed at industry standard values of
9600 baud, No Parity and One Stop Bit.
