SENSOR WIRING 

Wire sensors according to diagram 

 
 
 
Figure 6 
The sensor can be powered 
directly from the MT-500 
board. 
Don’t power more than one 
sensor per MT500 board. 
The 255 ohms resistor R should 
be placed at the MT-500 input 
terminal block.

RELAY OPTION 

When relay output is needed use an external power supply 400-0002 set to 24VDC with a dual relay 
sequencer 023-0386. Wire according to Figure 7. This configuration allows the IR sensor to be use 
as stand alone or with the MT-500 sensor node. The 255 ohms resistor R should be placed at the 
relay sequencer input terminal block. Do not connect the (–) wire of the 24VDC to the relay 
sequencer. This will prevent ground loop to affect signal accuracy. Default relay threshold settings 
are 500ppm and 1000ppm. Different setting is available on special order. Relay and power supply 
should be installed in a control panel.
