Description
Wire the fire alarm circuit on the projector to a normally closed, dry contact building fire alarm circuit.
When the contacts open, the light source shuts down and cannot be turned back on until the circuit is
closed and a light on command is sent to the projector.
We recommend using twisted pair wiring, minimum 24 AWG. The circuit should be left floating, do not
connect to ground.
