Simplicity on the Worksite Solutions Guide for FAQs: E5CC/E5EC Setting Temperature Alarms What Value Is Set for an Alarm? You set the temperature at which the alarm is output. There are two methods to set the temperature for the alarm types selected on pages 4-3 and 4-4: a deviation or an absolute temperature. Either positive or negative values can be set for the alarm value. ● Setting Deviations from the Set Point • Setting an Upper-limit Alarm (Alarm Type 2) • Setting a Lower-limit Alarm (Alarm Type 3) Example: Alarm Value = 20 Example: Alarm Value = 20 Alarm value: 20 ° C Alarm value: 20 ° C ON Set point: 100 ° C Alarm ON 120 ° C or higher Set point:
100 ° C Alarm ON 80 ° C or lower Example: Alarm Value = − 20 Example: Alarm Value = − 20 Alarm value: -20 ° C Alarm value: -20 ° C Set point: 100 ° C Alarm ON 80 ° C or higher Set point: 100 ° C Alarm ON 120 ° C or lower • Setting an Upper-limit Lower-limit Alarm (Alarm Type 1) Example: Alarm upper limit = 30, alarm lower limit = 20 Alarm lower limit: 20 ° C Alarm upper limit: 30 ° C Setting Temperature Alarms Alarm ON 80 ° C or lower Set point:
100 ° C Alarm ON 130 ° C or higher ● Setting Absolute Temperatures • Setting an Absolute-value Upper-limit Alarm (Alarm Type 8) • Setting an Absolute-value Lower-limit Alarm (Alarm Type 9) The alarm output will turn ON when the alarm value is exceeded regardless of the value of the set point. The alarm output will turn ON when the temperature is below the alarm value regardless of the value of the set point. Example: Alarm Value = 100 Example: Alarm Value = 100 Alarm value: 100 ° C Alarm value: 100 ° C 0 Alarm ON 100 ° C or higher Alarm ON 100 ° C or lower *There is no upper-limit lower-limit alarm that can be set with absolute values.
