PRODUCTION DATA.
The alarm conditions related to individual channels are stored in these registers. The flags can be read when an alarm interrupt is received on the ALARM pin. There are two types of flag for every alarm: active and tripped. The active flag is set to 1 under the alarm condition (when data cross the alarm limit) and remains so as long as the alarm condition persists. The tripped flag turns on the alarm condition similar to the active flag, but remains set until read. This feature relieves the device from having to track alarms.
