Normal Indications This section explains the indications provided on the front-panel LCD and the
indicators of the ASMi-450.
Display
The normal message displayed in the top row is ALARM BUFFER. However,
if no alarm is stored in the alarm buffer (ALM indicator off), the ASMi-450 will
continue displaying the last user-selected display.
In addition, the ASMi-450 will automatically abort the current activity and will
redisplay the ALARM BUFFER message if no front-panel button is pressed for
1 minute, thereby ensuring that it will not remain in an indeterminate state even
if the operator does not complete a configuration activity.
When the top row shows ALARM BUFFER, the second row displays the
following information:
•
During normal operation, the second row should show EMPTY (no alarm
messages).
•
If the alarm buffers contains alarms, you will see SCROLL in the left-hand
field of the second row, and CLEAR in the right-hand field.
The alarms can be displayed by bringing the cursor under SCROLL, and then
pressing ENTER: you can now scroll between the alarms stored in the alarm
buffer.
To interpret the alarm messages displayed in the second row, refer to Table 5-1.
