Clearable alarms - these alarms simply report an event of interest that has no resolution per se. An
example of this would be a 'configuration changed' alarm. These alarms are clearable by the user
and are never cleared by the system.
Alarms may be cleared and acknowledged both on an individual basis and globally (i.e. clear/
acknowledge all active-alarms). When an alarm is cleared by the user it is removed from the active
alarms table and no longer asserts the fail-relay and LED. When an alarm is acknowledged by the user
it de-asserts the fail-relay and LED, but it remains in the active alarms table, unless the alarm is non-
clearable and de-asserted by the system. In the latter case it is removed from the table, because the
condition was resolved.
