What does DEADBAND mean on the Alarm settings?

Dead band: In what range an alarm-warning should be logged even though the alarm has not yet been triggered. 

For example, when configuring 'Over Power' on a load with a Set Point of 1000kW the alarm will be triggered when the load uses 1000kW. When a Dead band of 50kW is configured a warning will be logged when the load uses 950kW. A warning will only result in a log entry and will never trigger the LED or Relay. A dead band of "ø" means no warning is generated.
