Instruction Manual
12
Alarm Relay Outputs
Function
Programmable for 13 different alarm
types or off.
Number
Two alarm relays standard on all
models.
Alarm Relay
Ratings
Rated resistive load switching capacity:
5 A, 250 VAC; 5 A, 30 VDC
Deadband
0-100% FS, user selectable
High or Low
Alarm
User may program any alarm for high,
low, or high-low range operation.
Absolute or
Deviation Alarm
User may program any alarm as an
absolute value alarm or a set value
deviation alarm.
Loop Break
Alarm
User may program any SUB alarm relay
as a loop break alarm.
Alarm Relay
Operation
•
Automatic (non-latching)
and/or manual reset
•
Latching (requires manual
acknowledge) with/without
clear
•
Off (disable unused relays)
Relay Reset
(Acknowledge)
Automatic, front panel button, in setup
parameter menu, or through serial
communications
Time Delay
0 to 999 seconds, on and off delays;
programmable for each SUB relay.
Fail-Safe
Operation
Programmable, independent for each
alarm relay. Relay coils are energized in
non-alarm condition. In case of power
failure, relays will go to alarm state.
Standby
Operation
Programming, independent for each
alarm relay
Auto
Initialization
When power is applied to the controller,
relays will reflect the state of the input to
the controller unless standby mode is
enabled.
