Connecting Detectors/Switches to DPX-CC2-TR
A DPX-CC2-TR unit provides two channels for connecting two discrete
(on/off) detectors/switches. There are four spring-loaded termination
points on the body of DPX-CC2-TR: the two to the right are associated
with one channel (as indicated by the LED number), and the two to the
left are associated with the other. You must plug discrete
detectors/switches into these termination points.
To connect third-party or Raritan's discrete detectors/switches:
1. Strip the insulation around 12mm from the end of each wire of
discrete detectors/switches.
2. Press and hold down the tiny rectangular buttons above the
termination points on the body of DPX-CC2-TR.
Note: Each button controls the spring of each corresponding
termination point.
3. Fully insert each wire of both detectors/switches into each
termination point.
Plug both wires of a detector/switch into the two termination
points to the left.
Plug both wires of the other detector/switch into the two
termination points to the right.
4. Release the tiny rectangular buttons after inserting the wires
properly.
5. Verify that these wires are firmly fastened.
6. If any detector/switch plugged into the contact closure sensor is
Raritan's floor water sensor, verify that the total cable length from the
port of the Raritan PX to the water detector at the end of the water
sensor does not exceed 30 meters/100 feet.
