7 Configuration
Alarm suppression, alarm delay
Alarm suppression and alarm delay prevent or delay entries being added to the event list and alarm list,
activation of the collective alarm, the display in the status bar, and the color change (analog value, plotter
trace).
Alarm delay
During an out-of-limit case, the alarm signal is only activated after the delay time has expired. If the limit
value infringement no longer exists at that point, the time for the next limit value infringement restarts
from zero.
Response in case of a fault
If the input signal returns an error value, the alarm signal is activated as long as limit value monitoring is
enabled. For this to happen, a min. or max. alarm must be configured (the limit value is unimportant
here). Alarm suppression is also taken into consideration in this case, but not the alarm delay.
