Confirm with digital input

You can use the checkbox to define that manual acknowledgement of an alarm is required. The acknowledgement is performed via the digital input, which has to be configured for this purpose.

Identifier

The identifier can be used to assign a user-specific designation to the alarms.

Alarm 1…4

You can use the four tabs to define the alarm configuration for each alarm.

Source

Select the measurement value to be monitored.

High limit and low limit

Use the checkbox to select the monitoring function. Depending on which function you selected, enter the value to be monitored.

The unit of the threshold corresponds to the unit of the measured value (specified in the register table, V, A, Hz, °, W, var, VA, Wh, varh, VAh)

Delay

Enter the tripping delay for the alarm in seconds.

Hysteresis

For the switching threshold, a hysteresis in percent is required. Enter it here.

Self-cleared

With this checkbox, you can define that the alarm self-acknowledges after the normal status has been restored. This way, no manual acknowledgement is required.

The integrated logic gate enables multiple use of the digital output for the alarm function.

 

Acknowledgment of alarms

Self-cleared - activated

In most applications, configured alarms that occur in the event of an error in the application are self-acknowledging. After the error status has been restored to the normal status (operation) of the applications, the alarm message disappears again.

Self-cleared - deactivated
You can save an error status in the application until it is manually reset via the digital input, a communication interface or the "confirm" button.
