Alarm Parameters
The Alarm parameters control the operation of the alarms (alert and danger
level) and provide alarm status. The XM-122 provides 16 alarms. The alarms
are not restricted to a channel, but the maximum number of alarms that can be
assigned to any one measurement is eight. Use the parameters to configure
which measurement the alarm is associated with, as well as the behavior of the
alarm.
