Module Properties dialog box - Alarms page parameters (5094-IJ2IS, 5094-IJ2ISXT)
The
Alarms
page (5094-IJ2IS, 5094-IJ2ISXT) includes these parameters:Parameter | Description |
Disable All Alarms | Select to help prevent the module from generating any of the four process alarms (LL, L, H, and HH) or the Acceleration and Deceleration alarms, and disable access to any of the alarm configuration properties. |
Latch Process Alarms | Select to instruct the module to latch any or all of the four process alarms (LL, L, H, and HH) once the alarm has been triggered, even if the condition causing the alarm to occur disappears. |
High High Limit | Enter the trigger point in Engineering Units. HHAlarm is set to 1 when the input signal moves above this limit. Move the HH marker down or up to set the High High value. As you move the marker, the High High value changes to match the value of the HH marker. The HH marker corresponds to the High High Limit value. |
High Limit | Enter the trigger point in Engineering Units. HAlarm is set to 1 when the input signal moves above this limit. Move the HI marker down or up to set the High value. As you move the marker, the High value changes to match the value of the HI marker. The HI marker corresponds to the High Limit value. |
Low Limit | Enter the trigger point In Engineering Units. LAlarm is set to 1 when the input signal moves below this limit. The Low Alarm Limit must be greater than or equal to the Low Low Limit and less than the High Limit. Move the LO marker up or down to set the Low value. As you move the marker, the Low value changes to match the value of the LO marker. The LO marker corresponds to the Low Limit value. |
Low Low Limit | Enter the trigger point in Engineering Units. LLAlarm is set to 1 when the input signal moves below this limit. The Low Alarm Limit must be greater than or equal to the Low Low Limit and less than the High Limit. Move the LL marker up or down to set the Low Low value. As you move the marker, the Low Low value changes to match the value of the LL marker. The LL marker corresponds to the Low Low Limit value. |
Deadband | Enter a deadband value in engineering units. Having a deadband value allows the process alarm status bits to remain set, even if the alarm condition disappears, as long as the channel data remains within plus or minus the deadband value of the process alarm. |
Enable Acceleration Alarm Latching | Select to enable Acceleration Alarm Latching or clear to disable Acceleration Alarm Latching. If selected, the Acceleration Alarm latches and does not clear until explicitly unlatched. |
Acceleration Alarm Limit | Enter the Acceleration Alarm limit in Engineering Units. An alarm sets if the rate of change between input samples on this channel exceeds the Acceleration Alarm limit specified. |
Enable Deceleration Alarm Latching | Select to enable Deceleration Alarm Latching or clear to disable Deceleration Alarm Latching. If selected, the Deceleration Alarm latches and does not clear until explicitly unlatched. |
Deceleration Alarm Limit | Enter the Deceleration Alarm limit in Engineering Units. An alarm sets if the rate of change between input samples on this channel exceeds the Deceleration Alarm limit specified. |
