overheat
This is triggered whenever the Module internal temperature is above a threshold temperature of 80°C.The heater
output is disabled when this Alarm is active
Pink (blinking) Sensor fault
This is triggered whenever a Modules Sensor Input field does not match the sensor connected to it, such as con-
figuring the Module to read RTD sensor input but connected to a harness that is using a Type-J Thermocouple.

Red (blinking) High Alarm
This is triggered whenever the measured temperature is above the High Alarm threshold.
The heater output is
disabled when this Alarm is active.
