Alarm Delay
You can set the CAS200 to delay normal alarm detection
and alarm reporting. There are two kinds of alarm delay:
• Startup alarm delay delays detection of process
alarms (but not failed sensor alarms) for all channels
for a time period you set in the Setup Global
Parameters main menu.
• Channel alarm delay delays failed sensor alarms and
process alarms for one channel until the alarm
condition is continuously present for longer than the
channel alarm delay time you set.
NOTE! Failed sensor alarms are detected at startup. They
are affected by the channel alarm delay, not the
startup alarm delay time.
High Process Alarm Setpoint
This menu lets you select the setpoint (temperature or
other value within the scaled sensor range) at which the
high process alarm activates. The high process alarm
activates when the process variable (PV) goes above the
high process setpoint. It deactivates when the PV goes
below the high process setpoint minus the deadband value,
if you have set a deadband value.
Selectable values: Any point within the scaled sensor
range
High Process Alarm Type
This menu lets you turn off the high process alarm or set it
to one of the alarm functions. (See the previous description
for an explanation of these choices).
Selectable values: Off, Latched, Unlatched
