Alarm Types
System Warnings
Are alarms that are caused by equipment failures or software malfunctions. These
could also be transient, instantaneous failures or warnings of impending failures.
Do not ignore system warnings!
See Chapter 5 for Site Policy &
SYSTEM warnings in TABLE 5 - 1.
Tank Alarms
Occur when a tank-related programmed limit is
reached. See Chapter 5 about Site Policy &
about TANK alarms (in TABLE 5 - 1).
Sensor Alarms
Leak Detection Sensors (Standard or
BriteSensor) or Aux. Input #1 or #2, or Solid
State Input Modules produce sensor alarms.
In Table 2.1 document the type, location, input-
channel, and the output-group name for each
sensor (sensor alarm). Standard sensors
produce only one alarm... BriteSensors can
produce two or more alarms. See Chapter 5 for
Site Policy & SENSOR alarms (TABLE 5 - 1).
Line Alarms
The INCON TS-LLD Line Leak Detectors can be interfaced to the system console
where line leak alarms and line leak detector status is monitored. See Chapter 5 about
Site Policy and about LINE alarms (shown in TABLE 5 - 1).
Alarm Status
An alarm or system warning can be either:
• Transient an instantaneous fault that clears almost immediately
• Cleared a previously active fault that no longer exists
• Active a fault that exists when it was displayed or printed
• Acknowledged a fault that was displayed or printed, and was acknowledged by
pressing the ACK SHIFT key. A grace period may also be started by pressing the
ACK SHIFT key.
