9.1 Common Indicators
9.1.1 Buzzer
The buzzer is activated by any of the following events:
If the buzzer is turned on in response to a Non-Latching Trouble or Supervisory, it is turned off
if the condition causing it goes away and there is no other reason for it to be on.

The green AC ON Indicator illuminates steadily as long as the main AC power is above
minimum level. The LED turns off when the level falls below the power-fail threshold and the
