3.3. Critical Alarm Wiring
The Critical Alarm output relay signals critical error conditions that may occur on the
RuggedBackbone™ RX1512. The contacts are energized upon power-up of the unit and remain
energized unless a critical alarm condition is detected. Relay connections are shown in the Critical
Alarm Relay Connector diagram. You can configure control of the relay output through the ROX™
user interface.
A common application for this output is to signal an alarm in case of a power failure.
