4.3.3 Alarm Thresholds
Each of the 3 alarm thresholds can be programmed independently for each channel (see "Channel programming"
menu).
During normal operation a gas alarm is triggered only after a preprogrammed lag time, so as to avoid untimely alarms.
The alarm thresholds can be dealt with in the following ways:
during a normal cycle with manual cancellation
during a normal cycle with automatic cancellation
during a parking cycle
The alarm thresholds are selected based on the detected gases and the corresponding standards in force.

In some applications, slight electronic noise between the Sensor/Transmitter and the Control can cause

range, detection limit and alarm values of the gas being monitored.
