In addition to editing an alarm, you can also create new custom alarms by
performing two steps:
1. Create the custom alarm.
2. Setup and enable the new alarm.
To use custom alarms, you must first create a custom alarm and then set up
the alarm to be used by the circuit monitor. Creating an alarm defines
information about the alarm including:
• Alarm group (standard, high speed, disturbance, digital, or boolean)
• Name of the alarm
• Type (such as whether it alarms on an over or under condition)
• Register number of the value that will be alarmed upon
To create an alarm, follow these steps:
1. From the Main Menu, select Setup > Alarm > Create Custom.
The Create Custom screen displays.
2. Select the Alarm Group for the alarm that you are creating:
• Standard—detection rate of 1 second
• High Speed—detection rate of 100 millisecond
• Disturbance—detection rate of less than 1 cycle
• Digital—triggered by an exception such as a status input or the end of
an interval
• Boolean—triggered by condition of alarms used as inputs
The Select Position screen displays and jumps to the first open position
in the alarm list.
3. Select the position of the new alarm.
The Alarm Parameters screen displays.
