5.3.3  Hysteresis 

  Set alarm-1 and alarm-2 hysteresis, in 

[E09: HYSTERESIS1]

 

and 

[E10: HYSTERESIS2]

.  Hysteresis is a value added to the 

alarm setpoint in order for an alarm status to be released (to 

normal) after the alarm status has been activated. The alarm 

status will be released in the following conditions, depending 

on the direction of alarm action. 

*  When HIGH ALM (high-limit alarm) is set: Alarm is released 

when input signal < (alarm setpoint - hysteresis). 

*  When LOW ALM (low-limit alarm) is set: Alarm is released 

when input signal > (alarm se hysteresis). 

 •

Setting range: A range of 0 to 100% of input range 

 •

Setting resolution: 0.1% 

5.3.4  Alarm ON Delay and Alarm OFF Delay 

  Set alarm-1 and alarm-2 ON delays in 

[E11: ON DELAY1]

 and 

[E12: ON DELAY2]

 and then alarm-1 and alarm-2 OFF delays 

in 

[E13: OFF DELAY1]

 and 

[E14: OFF DELAY2]

  An alarm ON delay is a delay time from the establishment of 

alarm condition to alarm output; an alarm OFF delay is a delay 

time from the establishment of return-to-normal condition to 

output. 

 •

Setting range: 0 to 999 seconds 

 •

Setting resolution: 1 second (Note that about 0.2 second 

will be added to set time to prevent erroneous operation.) 

  For example, when an alarm ON delay is set to 1 second, 

alarm output is generated if alarm status continues for 

more than 1 second after the input value exceeds the 

alarm setpoint. Further, when an alarm OFF delay is set 

to 2 seconds, alarm output is released if normal condition 

continues for more than 2 seconds after the input value has 

returned to normal from the alarm status.

5.3.5  Direction of Relay Action 

  Set the direction of relay energizing in alarm-1 normal 

condition and alarm-2 normal condition by selecting from 

among NRM DE-ENERGIZED (de-energized under normal 

condition) and NRM ENERGIZED (energized under normal 

condition) in 

[E15: RL1 ACTION]

 and 

[E16: RL2 ACTION]

 

and set them.

Description of  

alarm actions

The alarm is output if the 

condition where the input value 

is 80% or more of high-limit 

alarm continues for 1 second 

or more.

After the alarm is output, when 

the condition where the input 

value is less than 70% of 

high-limit alarm continues for 

2 seconds or more, the status 

returns to normal.

The alarm is output if the 

condition where the input value 

is 15% or less of low-limit 

alarm continues for 3 seconds 

or more.

After the alarm is output, when 

the condition where the input 

value is more than 20% of 

low-limit alarm continues for 

4 seconds or more, the status 

returns to normal.
