• Relay > Relay Action on Ack
You can select the relay output status that is enabled after the AlarmACK operation
from the following two settings. When you use the alarm annunciator function
(release number 3 or later), the setting follows the annunciator sequence.
Settings Description
Normal The relay is deactivated when the alarm ACK operation is executed. If the
condition for activating the alarm output relay is met in the next scan interval, the
relay is activated.
This operation is valid only when the alarm output relay is set to Hold.
Reset The relay is deactivated when the alarm ACK operation is executed. If a new
condition for activating the alarm output relay is met, the relay is activated.
An example of the relay action when alarm ACK is executed is shown below. This
example is for the case when the output relay AND item is set to None.
