Alarms
The Alarms folder contains links for configuring the eight alarms available on the Series PD. The controller
leaves the factory with default settings on the Alarms Configuration page that disable all alarm functions. To get
the Series PD alarms operational, you must go through the Alarms links and set them up. The Alarms folder links
are:
•
Alarm 1 thru Alarm 8
Alarm Configuration Page
The Alarm Configuration pages set up the alarm functions. Alarms can be configured as process, deviation or
current alarms. The Series PD can also be configured to send out an e-mail when an alarm occurs.
You can see and change all of the parameters on the Alarm Configuration page. Only those that apply will be
relevant. For example, you can set the Deviation Alarm Parameters even though you have the Alarm Type set to
Low Process. Only parameters relating to the Process Alarm have any effect on the controller. If you change the
Alarm Type to High Deviation, the Deviation Alarm Parameters previously entered are used.
Note: You must click Submit to send the new values to the Series PD.
