Note
If the signal of a status input does not correspond to the configured normal state, an alarm is triggered. Alarms are configured under Cockpit > Alarms/State > Alarm. The error description corresponds to the text in the Error message field.
Under Devices > Status DI internal > Alarm/state column, select State to record signals without generating an active alarm notification.
