High temp. alarm When internal temperature is higher than high temperature alarm setting value, alarm lamp flashes, intermittent buzzer beeps with 15 minutes of delay and remote alarm activates. Press BUZZER key to stop buzzer beeping. However, buzzer beeps again after Ring Back time is passed.
Page 27
Buzzer Auto-recovery (Ring Back function) You can stop buzzer beeping temporary with BUZZER key pressed. Remote alarm contact does not activate at the time. Ring Back setting time: 1 ~ 99 minutes * 0 minute = Buzzer does not recover if BUZZER key pressed once. ON/OFF control for Compressor H Start-up: Compressor H turns on with 2 minutes of delay after the power is supplied.
