 Alarm
The rate-of-change of the measured values is checked over a certain time (interval).
An alarm occurs if the rate-of-change of the measured value in the rising/falling
direction is greater than or equal to the specified value.
The alarm value of the rate-of-change alarm is set using an absolute value. The
interval is derived using the following equation and set using the number of samples.
  Interval=thescaninterval×thenumberofsamples
For the setting procedure, see section 3.5.
• DifferenceUpperLimitAlarmandDifferenceLowerLimitAlarm
An alarm occurs when the difference in the measured values of two channels is
greater/less than or equal to the specified value. These alarms can be specified on
measurement channels set to difference computation.
