    Alarm help - receiving Set OFF and Fallback OFF alarms

    I keep getting alarms for SET OFF and FALLBACK OFF, but there is no reference to those in my email alarm code or my sound warning or alarm code.

    I'm hoping someone can help me figure out where they are coming from.

    Thanks.

    The first line in your email sound and warning alarms needs to be Set OFF otherwise there is nothing to turn it off and you will continue to get emails when no alarm condition is present. Also make sure they are all set to AUTO. I would also reccomend adding Defer 000:30 Then ON as the last line in your email and sound alarms. That forces the condition to remain present for 30 seconds before an email is sent so you don't get notifications for a quick noise spike.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.

    Zombie,
    Thank you for the help!
    I’ve implemented the code per your instructions. I’ll set email alarm to auto and see how it goes for a couple hours.
    I have the 2016 Apex and running Apex Fusion, so I don’t have SndWrn or SndAlm as an option to control OFF AUTO ON in my dashboard. It’s not available when I unlock either. They are only available in my outputs screen.

    Here’s my code:

    Set OFF
    If Temp > 82.0 Then ON
    If Temp < 74.0 Then ON
    If pH > 8.40 Then ON
    If pH < 7.70 Then ON
    If Salt > 37.0 Then ON
    If Salt < 33.0 Then ON
    If ORP > 450 Then ON
    If ORP < 150 Then ON
    If Error 8_10-ATO-Vlv Then ON
    If Error Clean_Virt Then ON
    If Error Feeder_5_1 Then ON
    Defer 000:30 Then ON

    The sound and warning work with a 2016, but only if you got the optional display.

    1st I’d like to say thanks for your time and help.

    Ok. I don’t have the optional display.

    So, I’m still getting Set OFF alarms.
    This happens after an alarm when the alarm turns off.

    Any idea how to make that stop?

    A Status OFF / SET OFF alert is normal and expected after an alarm condition is no longer present - it tells you that the alarm is no longer active; it's a "ALL CLEAR" message
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.

    Russ,
    Thank you for the response.
    That makes sense now that you mention it.

    Cheers
