Remote Switch Wiring 

A remote switch can be used to reset the Totalizer and elapsed time, if enabled by the 
programming mode. The switch contacts are de-bounced on the FT2 board. There is no polarity 
requirement on these connections. Use TS2-12 and TS2-13. 
 
When the 2 curve option is ordered the switch can be used to switch between curves.
