NX Lighting Control Panel Relays
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLING INDIVIDUAL RELAYS
The NX Panel can be configured with single and/or double pole mechanically latching relays pre-installed. If the project requires
additional relays (and space is available in the panel), additional relays can be field installed as shown in Figure 2.
CAUTION! ALWAYS REMOVE POWER FROM THE NX PANEL’S TRANSFORMER PRIOR TO MAKING ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
INSIDE THE PANEL. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY, DAMAGE TO THE PANEL, AND VOID ITS WARRANTY.
1. Verify that power is turned off at breaker panel before installing relay in panel.
2. Remove panel door assembly from panel enclosure.
3. Locate an open relay position (two adjacent positions for a double pole relay) in the panel and remove the relay guard cover(s).
4. Insert relay into mounting bracket noting proper orientation of input/output sides. Verify that relay is securely held in
mounting bracket.
5. Connect relay input and output as shown in the wiring diagram below. Connect input to panel I/O control card using relay
connector cable. Attach red lead to red screw and blue wire to blue screw. Slide connector on to header pins of I/O control card.
Connect line and load leads to relay output.
