Alarms
The BE1-11g monitors internal systems, external interfaces, and power system equipment and
annunciates an alarm when one of these components fail. An alarm can be configured as latching or non-
latching with a status of major or minor. It can also be used as an input to other logic blocks in
BESTlogic™Plus. Latching alarms are stored in nonvolatile memory and are retained even when BE1-11g
operating power is lost. Active alarms are displayed on the front-panel display, web page interface, and
through BESTCOMSPlus® until they are cleared. Non-latching alarms are cleared when BE1-11g
operating power is lost.
If an alarm is configured as Major, a front-panel Major Alarm LED lights when the alarm is active. The
front-panel Minor Alarm LED operates in a similar manner. Each alarm provides a logic output that can be
connected to a physical output or other logic input using BESTlogicPlus Programmable Logic.
The ability to program the reporting and display of alarms along with the automatic display priority feature
of the front-panel display gives the BE1-11g the functionality of a local and remote alarm annunciator.
See the Controls and Indicators chapter for more information on the automatic display priority logic.
A detailed list of alarms is provided in Table 84.
