Alarm Trigger Direction
In addition, each alarm has a checkbox to choose a “Falling Trigger”
alarm type.
When selected, the alarm will activate when the analog value drops
below the setpoint as its value is falling.
In the default configuration, a rising value activates the alarm as it passes
through the setpoint.
Gas Mode
Each channel can be configured to be used with a “Gas Detector” or
“Other (Non Gas)” instrument.
When a channel is configured as “Other” it can be used to monitor virtually
any linear analog value from a wide range of temperature, pressure, level
and other transmitter types.
When configured as a gas detector, regulatory requirements will preset
alarm setpoint ranges and certain alarm characteristics.
