Alarm Types

Each alarm can be independently set to one of the following 17 alarm types. The default is 2: Upper limit. (see note.)

Auxiliary outputs are allocated for alarms. ON delays and OFF delays (0 to 999 s) can also be specified.

Note: In the default settings for models with HB or HS alarms, alarm 1 is set to a heater alarm (HA) and the Alarm Type 1 parameter is not displayed.

To use alarm 1, set the output assignment to alarm 1.

Upper- and lower-limit

*1

*2

Set the upward deviation in the set point for the alarm upper

limit (H) and the lower deviation in the set point for the alarm

lower limit (L). The alarm is ON when the PV is outside this

deviation range.

2

(default) Upper-limit

Set the upward deviation in the set point by setting the alarm

value (X). The alarm is ON when the PV is higher than the

SP by the deviation or more.

3

Lower-limit

Set the downward deviation in the set point by setting the

alarm value (X). The alarm is ON when the PV is lower than

the SP by the deviation or more.

4

Upper- and lower-limit

range

*1

*3

Set the upward deviation in the set point for the alarm upper

limit (H) and the lower deviation in the set point for the alarm

lower limit (L). The alarm is ON when the PV is inside this

deviation range.

Upper- and lower-limit with

standby sequence

*4

A standby sequence is added to the upper- and lower-limit

alarm (1).

*6

Upper-limit with standby

sequence

A standby sequence is added to the upper-limit alarm (2).

7

Lower-limit with standby

sequence

A standby sequence is added to the lower-limit alarm (3).

8

Absolute-value upper-

limit

The alarm will turn ON if the process value is larger than the

alarm value (X) regardless of the set point.

9

Absolute-value lower-limit

The alarm will turn ON if the process value is smaller than the

alarm value (X) regardless of the set point.

10

Absolute-value upper-

limit with standby

sequence

A standby sequence is added to the absolute-value upper-

limit alarm (8).

11

Absolute-value lower-limit

with standby sequence

A standby sequence is added to the absolute-value lower-

limit alarm (9).

upper-limit alarm

This alarm type turns ON the alarm when the set point (SP)

is higher than the alarm value (X).

This alarm type turns ON the alarm when the set point (SP)

is lower than the alarm value (X).
