NV6257 Alarms
The ‘Alarms’ connection on the rear of the NV6257 uses a DB25 connector. An “alarm” or ON
condition occurs when the connection between an alarm pin and Alarm_COM (common) opens.
The alarm turns OFF when the connection between Alarm_COM and the alarm pin closes again. If
you remove any PS6000 power supply module, the alarm circuit remains open.
To create an indicator box, connect to the ‘Alarms’ connection using a DB25 female connector,
wiring as shown in Figure 3-18. Each pin monitors a specific function and activates a specific
alarm.
