JULY 2010 Delayed Discrete Alarms
the discrete hardware output to be used for
alarm purposes.
Output values can range from “1” to “N”, per
the discrete hardware output identification
number and the GC application. A discrete
output of “0 - Not used” indicates that no
output has been assigned. To configure
discrete outputs, see Section 5.12.
5.7.1 Delayed Discrete Alarms
A delayed discrete alarm can be set to trigger a
discrete alarm and activate the appropriate
discrete output if a previously specified discrete
input has been closed for a user-defined
amount of time.
A discrete output can be used to monitor one or
more inputs.
If you are using discrete outputs to reflect the
status of GC analysis data alarms, ensure that the
output assignments set here coordinate with those
set in the Limit Alarms dialog (see Section 5.6).
