Acknowledging an Alarm

Press

ALARM ACK to acknowledge the alarm. If there are

other loops with alarm conditions, the Alarm display
switches to the next loop in alarm. Acknowledge all alarms
to clear the global alarm digital output (the keypad and dis-
play won't work for anything else until you acknowledge
each alarm). The alarm symbols are displayed as long as
the alarm condition is valid.
