    The Basic Events Leak The Icons The Icons (2 on foldout) represent the four main states of the TTDM module: When liquid is detected on the sensing cable, this red Leak LED illuminates. Note that the Green Yellow green LED remains illuminated; the unit continues to monitor for leaks and spills. This is cov- ered more fully in the following section “Leak Detection and Location Events”, on page 8.

    Multiple Events Example (continued): In addition to storing all events in memory, TTDM gives a direct indication of multiple events, that is, events which happen after an initial leak but before the module is manually Before the problem can be dealt with, the leak spreads.

    The TTDM can store up to 512 events. If 512 events are already stored, the oldest event is discarded as a new event is registered. When this has occurred, the Events History leaves the bottom line of the display blank. Contact Raychem for assistance if you wish to clear the event history.
