q  Main Menu 

This feature determines how the unit latches alarm conditions. 

Selecting from the following options. 

Latched:  The alarm is activated until it is silenced and acknowledged 
by the user. 

Transparent:  The alarm is active only while receiving alarm input.   
The alarm condition is canceled when the alarm input ceases. 

Timed Out:  The alarm condition is latched for the amount of time selected in this menu, then it is 
automatically silenced and acknowledged.  If the alarm input exceeds the duration specified in this 
menu, the unit silences and acknowledges the alarm when the alarm input ceases.  Select the timeout 
duration, the range is from 1 to 250 seconds. 

Transparent alarms cannot be silenced and acknowledged.  If transparent mode is preferred, but the 
ability to silence and acknowledge alarms is desired, select Timed Out and set the Alarm Timeout to 
two seconds.
