9.5.11 Set Up Delay Time
Each sensor may be set up with a specified time delay between the
triggering of a high or low setpoint—a monitored sensor crosses the
high or low setpoint threshold—and any response by the Universal
Monitor. This feature can prevent transient conditions from prompting
unnecessary responses.
This delay is the amount of time that must elapse before the Universal
Monitor acknowledges the change in the monitored sensor and takes
any further action, such as dialing configured pagers. The default time
delay is 1 second (displayed as 00 MIN : 01 SEC).
The time delay applies to the triggering of a high or low setpoint and
also after the monitored sensor returns to its normal state. When the
monitored device returns to its normal state, the specified time delay
must elapse before the Universal Monitor acknowledges the return-to-
normal condition.
• From the Setup Sensor Menu, choose Sensor Delay, as shown at
right, and press Enter ↵ .
• To change the time delay in minutes and seconds (in the range of
00:00 to 99:59):
• For minutes (MIN), press and hold one of the arrow keys
↑↓ scroll through the numbers
00-99.
• Press Enter ↵ to advance to seconds (SEC).
• For seconds (SEC), press and hold one of the arrow keys
↑↓ scroll through the numbers 00-59.
