Alarm Port Connection
Figure 18 Connecting the Alarm Port Cable
Connect the dry relay alarm port cable connector to the alarm port. It cannot be inserted incorrectly. The dry relay alarm port
operates at 50V AC/DC maximum and up to 80 mA maximum. Total power dissipation should not exceed 300 milliwatts. The
normally closed position will have from 15 to 30 ohms resistance. The open position will be greater than 1 megohom. The alarm
condition is the closed position. This port is a switch so that the cable connector can be inserted in either orientation.
Cable Management
