Latching Alarms - The alarm continues when the alarm condition is
eliminated. Latching alarms can be reset by pressing the
key. Alternatively, all latching alarms can be turned
off using the softkey or the hardkey.
Latching alarms for individual parameters can be turned off in the
Adjust Alarms Task Window or the Alarm Limits Task Window.

condition is eliminated. INOPs are always non-latching.
