The UPS provides input dry contacts and output dry contacts.
1.8.1 Input Dry Contacts
There are several input dry contacts at the X3 slot.
X3 Ancillary Control and Alarms
X3 IN DRY: Environmental, Battery Ground Fault and Generator Contacts
The UPS accepts external signalling from voltage-free (dry) contacts connected to finger-proof, push-
in terminal X3 IN DRY. Subject to prior software programming, the signalling is accepted by the UPS
when connection between the relevant terminal and the +12V terminal is altered. Cables connected to
X3 IN DRY must be segregated from power circuits (for screening purposes), double insulated and of a
typical 0.5 to 1mm
2
cross-section area for maximum runs between 25 and 50 meters (82-164 ft),
respectively.
