General Alarm
Menus → System → General Alarm
e General Alarm triggers the buzzer, general alarm relay, general alarm icon, and
5X00 emails. Sensor and aux system alarms, slave failure (networks), low battery
alarms and ODO probe failure (ODO probe failure alarms apply to only 5500D-
01, 5500D-02 and 5500D-04 instruments) alarms trigger the General Alarm when
enabled. If individual system alarms are not enabled, the General Alarm will
not trigger.
e General Alarm (buzzer, relay, emails, icon) remains active until one of the four
sokeys
on the front panel is pressed. Pressing one of
the four sokeys while in the Run Screen stops the buzzer, de-energizes the General
Alarm relay, stops 5X00 emails, and removes the General Alarm icon. Pressing one
of these keys also resets the sensor and aux alarm systems. If the alarm condition
still exists aer Alarm Hold period(s), the General Alarm triggers again. Low bat-
tery and slave failure alarms are not reset when sokeys are pressed.
Sensor alarm values set the acceptable control range. When a sensor reports a value
≤ low alarm value or ≥ high alarm value, the alarm system becomes active aer the
alarm hold o period. See Senssor Setup section, Controls and Alarms - page 138
for additional information. If an alarm system is active and alarm relay is enabled,
the alarm relay energizes.
Notes:
- e Run Screen must be displayed during normal operation. All alarm
functions (5X00 email alarms, energizing of enabled alarm relays, alarm
icons, and buzzer) are suspended in 5X00 menus. Alarm systems are reset
when menus are exited to Run Screen.
- e General Alarm system is disabled during system-wide events such as
service hold and downloader.
- Sensor and Aux alarms must be enabled to trigger the General Alarm.

General Alarm Hold O is the length of time the alarm condition must exist before
the General Alarm system becomes active.
Notes:
- To avoid alarms for spurious events set the Alarm Hold O > than 0.
- Aux system alarms are triggered aer the Aux hold o time, and not aer the
General Alarm hold o time.
