Chapter Four--Wiring

Emergency Shutdown Wiring:

To connect your fi re alarm or emergency management system 
to the RPC, follow these steps.

1.  From the fi re alarm unit or latching Emergency Shutoff  

switch, wire the Normally Open (NO) contacts to the IN and 
24V positions of Digital I/O Port #1 on the Controller. 

2.  If a remote status indicator is used, ensure that the positive 

terminal is wired to the 24V position and the negative 
terminal is wired to the OUT position of Digital I/O Port #1.

3.  When the Normally Open contacts are closed, the status 

indicator will immediately light and all breakers that have 
been selected for E. Shutoff  should cycle to OFF.

4.  When the contacts are released, the status indicator will 

extinguish and all breakers that were ON when E. Shutoff  
was activated should return to the ON state.

See Chapter 5 to confi gure the software for emergency 
shutdown.
