Feed pressure low ‘Type of alarm P1 60 Parameter Pr 1 was set to 60 minutes. 00:02:13 The alarm was reset after 2 minutes 13 seconds. 1.3 Alarm Reset Breakdown hazard Novor reset an alarm without first finding and remedying the cause, 1 Acknowledge the alarm signal by pressing the alarm pushbutton. The flashing LED then changes to steady shine. 2 Remedy the cause. 3 Reset the alarm function by pressing the alarm pushbutton a second time, The LED will go out It is possible to reset the system without remedying the cause, but the alarm signal will be repeated, ‘The STOP sequence is automatically initiated if an ‘alarm is not remedied within 30 minutes. 1810573-02 3 Risk of injury Never return to the operator panel to acknowledge or rosot an alarm if doing so is by any means hazardous, 1.4 Abnormalities not displayed There are some abnormalities not shown on the display.
