ALARMS / 53

ALARMS

Priority levels are assigned to the Seed Manager

®

SE alarms as shown in

(

Figure 64

) with level one (1) being the highest. If two alarm conditions are

detected at the same time only the higher priority alarm displays. If alarms
are the same level, both display simultaneously.

NOTE: A Row Failure Alarm will acknowledge the audible alarm only and
will not clear the display. To clear a Row Failure Alarm the condition must
be fixed or the row must be turned OFF in SETUP MODE.

Unless indicated below, when an alarm condition occurs, the console exits
the current Operate Mode function to display the alarm. It returns to that
Operate Mode function only after the alarm condition ceases or the ALARM
switch has been pressed to acknowledge the alarm condition (except for a
Row Failure Alarm).

A “warning” alarm is accompanied by a beeping sound lasting for a fixed
time period related to its priority. The higher the priority, the longer the
alarm is sounded. Unless otherwise indicated, a “failure” alarm sounds
continuously (not beeping) until the failure condition ceases or is
acknowledged by pressing the ALARM switch.
