User Guide

All the alarm signals (red LED, alarm relay, fault currents) are

suspended while in hold mode (the correspondent error events

are not closed), unless the hold mode is being triggered by

one or more errors and no other trigger source (different from

an error) is active.

The analog output follows these rules:

• if it is configured for control (i.e. setup item O.10 or O.20

set to “SEt”), its value is set to the minimum (e.g. 4 mA for

4-20 mA output);

• if it is configured for a recorder, its value is either set to a

user-selected value through the setup item O.15 or O.25

(when item O.14 or O.24 is set to “USEr”) or frozen to the

last value, i.e. the output value just before entering the

hold mode (when item O.14 or O.24 is set to “HOLd”).

After the cause which made the instrument enter the hold

mode expires, the device exits hold mode but control and

alarms remain disabled for a delay which can be user-se-

lected (0 to 99s) through setup item C.70. In that situation

measurements are normally acquired, displayed and recorded

through the analog output or the RS485.

Note Alarms (red LED, alarm relay, fault currents) are not disabled

if the hold mode is being triggered by an error and no other

trigger source is active.
