Type a value for each of the four alarm
trigger points that alert you when the
module has exceeded these limitations.
You also can use the respective slider
icon
to set a trigger value.
The Unlatch buttons are enabled only
when the module is online.
Disable All Alarms
Check the box to disable all alarms.
Important: When you disable all
alarms, you disable process, rate, and
channel diagnostic alarms (for example,
underrange and overrange).
We recommend that you disable only
unused channels so extraneous alarm
bits are not set.
Latch Process Alarms
Check the box to latch an alarm in the
set position even if the condition that
causes the alarm disappears.
Latch Rate Alarms
Check the box if the rate of change
between input samples exceeds the
trigger point for the channel.
for a sample
rate of change formula.
Deadband

the process alarms. The deadband
gauges the input data to set or remove
an alarm for a process alarm.
See an alarm deadband chart on

of change to trigger a rate alarm.
