For an IO-device in automatic mode the IO-controller automatically acknowledges each alarm recei-
ved from an IO-device (IOD_ALARM_IND bits are not used). For an IO-device in manual mode an
alarm indication is signalled to the PLC program via the IOD_ALARM_IND registers.

Note: the stack can store internally both high and low priority alarms. When the CPU requests
alarms, the high priority alarm will be returned first. The IOD_ALARM_IND bit for the corresponding
device will be reset only after the management of both alarms.
The following diagram demonstrates an alarm cycle (when alarm management is activated by the
PLC program).
