5061A behavior

So I powered up my trusty 5061A a week or two ago and it's been doing
something interesting. Twice now, the CA lamp has gone out, but the alarm
lamp has not lit. Resetting the logic brings it right back, but this seems
like an improper failure mode.

The alarm lamp is fine, so that's not the issue.

Anyone ever seen this before?
