Note: The dip switch setting must be properly configured, or the sensor
LED may be incorrectly lit in the Normal state.
Connecting Third-Party Detectors/Switches to the EMX
A specific EMX model (EMX2-888) provides two channels of contact
closure sensor termination points, allowing for direct connection of third-
party contact closure detectors/switches.
It is not guaranteed that all third-party detectors/switches are
compatible with the EMX device. You need to test the compatibility
after properly installing them.
To connect third-party 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.
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.
