1 Alarms
1.1 Alarm Functions
The alarm system has been designed to ensure a safe operation of fuel
conditioning system.

The presence of any active alarms is indicated by a red alarm icon at main tab
2.
The red alarm icon flashes until all active alarms have been acknowledged.

A grey icon means no active alarms.

1.2 Reading Alarm List

To access to alarms dedicated screens, tap the alarm symbol in main tab 2.

200001451-1-EN-GB 5
EN 1 Alarms

1.2.1 Alarm List explanation

Once the alarm button has been tapped, the display will show the alarms list.
• Unacknowledged alarms have a red background colour.

• Acknowledged alarms have a yellow background colour.

When the alarm condition is no longer fulfilled, acknowledged alarms

disappear from the alarm list.
The alarm history is anyway available in the Alarm history screen.

1.2.2 Alarm Acknowledge

To acknowledge an alarm select it tapping on alarm line and then tap the Ack
Selected button.

In order to acknowledge all active alarms, tap the Ack All button.

Old alarms are shown in the Alarm History screen 2.2.
