topology tree. When a VCU element is selected in the topology tree, the Alarm tab displays the
main alarms in the unit.
To view VCU Alarms
In the Topology Tree select the Control Unit (VCU) then click the Config(uration) tab in the
menu bar located at the top of the window. Refer to the VCU Alarms and Mask sub tab.
If one or more alarms occur, the corresponding Status indicator will be illuminated in RED. If the
VCU is OK and no fault occurs, the Overall Status indicator will show GREEN.
