Alarm Monitors
Alarm monitors are software modules used by the system controller to measure system internal and external input signals or logical states. When an alarm monitor is enabled, it compares the measured parameter with preprogrammed values or limits, and raises an alarm in the event of the measured parameter reaching one of the limits. When this event occurs, the alarm monitor stores the event in the Event Log, initiates an internal action and activates an output group. Internal pre-programmed actions may be battery current limiting, boost inhibiting or similar. The generated alarm activates a pre-programmed group of relay outputs (an alarm output group, AOG).
The alarm monitors most commonly used configuration (Refer to the Alarm Monitor dialog boxes topic in PowerSuite Help)
parameters
are:
Type of input The measured Input Signal can be analogue (e.g. a voltage), logical (e.g. an open or close contact) and numeric (e.g. number of rectifiers, % remaining capacity, etc.)

3 About Power System Configuring Alarm Monitor activation You have to Enable the alarm monitor so that it functions Type of alarm reset You can select whether the alarm generated by monitor can be reset manually, or automatically (when the event that caused the alarm is no longer true) Hysteresis and Time delay When the input signal has reached a certain limit or criteria for a certain period of time, the alarm monitor raises an alarm. This period of time is called Time delay. You can also enter a hysteresis value to prevent the alarm monitor from unwanted rapid switching, when the input signal is around the limit or criteria. .
Alarm is raised Major High Limit Hysteresis t Input Signal Time delay
For example: A MajorHigh Limit is set to 57.00VDC, with a Hysteresis of 0.10VDC and a Time delay of 5 seconds. An input signal of 57.08VDC lasting 3 seconds will not cause the alarm monitor to raise an alarm. The alarm will only be generated when the input signal is over 57.00VDC for a longer period of time than 5 seconds (the Time delay). The alarm will only be switched off when the input signal is lower than 56.90VDC (the hysteresis). Monitored Limits and Events Analogue and numeric alarm monitors compare the measured input with from one to four user-defined values or limits; two above normal value (Major High and Minor High) and two below normal value (Minor Low and Major Low). The type and number of internal actions (events) are usually defined from factory. Logical alarm monitors only compare the measured input signal with a logical state (normally open or close). The user can define the alarm group that the monitor will activate when the input signal is not in the normal state. Alarm output groups For each value or limit, you can select which alarm output group (AOG) the alarm monitor will activate in the event the measured input reaches the specific limit Measured Average Value The alarm monitor stores all input signal measurements and performs average calculations every minute. Then, the monitor continuously displays the input

Measured Peak Value The alarm monitor stores all input signal measurements. Then, the monitor continuously displays the input signal peak value, since the measurements started. You can restart the monitors peak value measurements.
In addition, you can configure the alarm monitors with a description of the alarm monitor and other configuration parameters. Read also the Alarm Monitor dialog boxes topic in PowerSuite Help.

The power systems controller uses following types of alarm monitors, determined by the monitors type of input signal: Logical Alarm Monitors (L1) (monitor logical states such as Open/Close or Yes/No) Numeric Alarm Monitors (N1, N2%) (monitor numeric values such as the number of rectifiers, errors, the % battery capacity, etc) Analogue Alarm Monitors (A2, A4) (monitor analogue values such as voltage, current, etc) Special Alarm Monitors (LVD) (monitor the battery voltage and controls the LVD contactors)
Analogue and numerical alarm monitors compare the measured input with from one to four user-defined values or limits; two above normal value (Major High and Minor High) and two below normal value (Minor Low and Major Low). Logical alarm monitors only compare the measured input signal with a logical state (normally open or close). The user can define the type of event the monitor activates when the input signal is not in the normal state. Using PowerSuite, you can change the default alarm monitors name (Description). This is useful for alarm monitors of the type ProgInput X.Y, but you should be careful changing the name of other system alarm monitors.

The LVD alarm monitors observe that the battery voltage (input signal) is within limits, otherwise they activate the LVD contactors (alarm group). (a) Manual Reset (b) Hysteresis and Time Delay Read also topic Alarm Monitors on page 20 (c) Mains Independent Check this option if you want that the LVD alarm monitor will reconnect the LVD contactor when the rectifier system output voltage reaches the Reconnect Voltage limit, regardless whether Mains is ON or OFF. For example, this is possible using an additional primary supply. Uncheck this option (Mains dependent) if you want that the LVD alarm monitor will NOT reconnect the LVD contactor until Mains is ON again. (d) Temperature Dependent Used with LVD contactors that disconnect the battery bank (LVBD). Check this option if you want that the LVD alarm monitor will reconnect the LVBD contactor when the battery temperature is lower than the temperature limit configured in the BatteryTemp alarm monitor. (e) Disconnect Voltage Enter a numeric value for the battery voltage drop-down limit. When -- after a Mains failure -- the battery voltage gradually drops down to this limit; then the alarm monitor raises the alarm and trips the LVD contactor. (f) Reconnect Voltage Enter a numeric value for the battery voltage reconnection limit. When the Mains supply is ON again, the rectifier system output voltage increases to this limit; then the alarm monitor will reconnect the LVD contactor. (g) Delay Time after Disconnect Enter the Time delay or number of seconds the LVD contactor has to be tripped or disconnected, before the alarm monitor is allowed to reconnect the LVD contactor
Alarm Output Groups

An Alarm Output Group (AOG) is a user defined software assignment that consists of grouping together all the outputs that always are activated at the same time. The outputs -- alarm relay outputs and or latching contactors (LVLD and LVBD) are distributed among the power systems controllers and control units. In order to activate the alarm relay outputs and latching contactors (LVLD and LVBD) in the DC power supply system, you have to assign them to output groups (AOG). Output relay assignment and output relay mapping are similar terms, synonyms.

Read also the Alarms Overview Outputs tab topic in PowerSuite Help. The DC power supply system uses at least 20 different alarm output groups (AOG); 18 for assignment of alarm output relays, and 2 or more for assignment of LVD latching contactors. Usually, the first seven alarm output groups have alarm relay outputs already assigned to them from factory (Factory Default Settings). Typically, alarm output groups 8 through 18 are listed as Alarm Group 8, Alarm Group 9 to Alarm Group 18, but they have no alarm relay outputs assigned. Alarm output groups LVBD OG and LVLD1 OG have usually LVD battery and load latching contactors assigned from factory.
NOTICE: Usually, most controllers and I/O Monitors are physically equipped with relay outputs. The outputs of Smartnode control units are telephone numbers, instead of relay outputs. The assignment procedure is the same, but you group the phone numbers and assign them to Alarm Output Group. Read also topic Control Unit Modem Callback Setup tab in PowerSuite Help.

The example below shows typical Alarm Output Group assignment in a Smartpack2-based system. The Smartpack2 Basic controller is equipped with the 3 LVD contactors, and the I/O Monitor2 control unit with the 6 relay outputs. Alarm Configuration > Outputs
# 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Description Alarm Groups Major Alarm, AOG Minor Alarm, AOG Mains Alarm, AOG Fuse Alarm, AOG High Battery Alarm, AOG Low Battery Alarm, AOG Rectifier Alarm, AOG Gen-Set AOG Alarm Group 9 Alarm Group 10 ----17 18 19 20 21 Alarm Group 17 OutpBlocked, AOG LVBD, AOG LVLD, AOG 1 LVLD, AOG 2 --------Output 1 2 3 4 5 6 LVBD LVLD1 LVLD2 Note
In the example above, Alarm relay output 1 is used for external common alarm signaling Alarm Output Group 18, OutpBlocked, AOG If an external warning is necessary, you can assign output relays to the OutpBlocked, AOG group, e.g. to activate a lamp or alarm bell when the alarm output relays are blocked. Read more in topic Alarm Outputs Isolation (Output Blocked) on page 28 Alarm Groups 9 through 17 are unused, and can be assigned when required

Output Test Commands

This logical subgroup lets you issue or activate specific commands to test the activation of the alarm output relay contacts. For example, following commands might be aavailable in Smartpack2 Master Controllers submenu: Commands > Output Test
# Description Output Relay # 1 Output Relay # 2 Output Relay # 3 Output Relay # 4 Output Relay # 5 Output Relay # 6 Action Unit/Label No No No Note Tests alarm relay number 1
The Output Test functionality enables to test and verify the circuits connecting external equipment to the power systems alarm relay outputs. The Output Test command will toggle the alarm relay contacts -- regardless of the position they are at the moment -- for a certain period of time (entered in the Output Test Timeout (sec) in PowerSuite). Issuing commands is allowed using a Pin-Code.
Alarm Outputs Isolation (Output Blocked)

When the user activates the OutpBlocked command, system alarms will NOT trigger any alarm output group (similar to relay isolation) except for the OutpBlocked, AOG group, usually Alarm Output Group 18. The OutpBlocked command uses the Alarm Output Group 18 to facilitate external warning of this function being active (output relays activation is blocked). If an external warning is necessary, you can assign output relays to the OutpBlocked, AOG group, e.g. to activate a lamp or alarm bell when the alarm output relays are blocked.
