Alarm Setting Function
While in counter mode, you can set alarm status--Disable and Latch. If
you want to disable it, you can select Disable. If Latch status is selected, it
means the Alarm status will be "latched" whenever the alarm being triggered.
Once the alarm status being "latched," it will thereafter stay in that triggered
state. Users will have to issue a "Clear Alarm Status" command to return the
"latched" alarm status back to normal. Users can designate the high-limit
value and low-limit value to regulate your alarm behavior through the utility
program.
Digital Output Mapping
Users can either run the utility program or issue a "Set Alarm
Connection" command to designate a specific digital output module for the
alarm signal to be sent through.
