When the BASE encounters an alarm or warning condition, a red or yellow indicator will be displayed in the bottom right corner near the ALERTS button as shown below.

To see what the alarm is indicating, press the ALERTS button to access the Alarms/Warnings screen.
The alert description will be displayed to indicate what condition the operator needs to address (see example below).

Alarms/Warnings Detail

• WARNING – A proactive indicator that the system will need attention soon. A cycle can be run with an active warning.
• ALARM – A responsive signal that requires immediate attention. Active cycles will be stopped and no new cycle can start until the alarm is addressed and cleared.

*After correcting an alarm or warning, press the blue CLEAR ALARM button in the top left to proceed with the cycle.

In addition to the Clear Alarm button in the HMI, there is a manual button under the HMI called the Safety Circuit Reset button. This button was designed to help promote safety when working in and around the BASE. Therefore, certain alarms will need to be cleared with the Safety Circuit Reset button, in association with the Clear Alarm button. These alarms are:

• E-Stop
• Chamber Door Open
