3. A switch opens to release from ground to activate.
The strobe light is activated when a single On/Off input is released from ground.
The RIB-600Analog relay must be configured for normally-closed operation. Refer to
section 2.8 Installation of Optional Interface Cable Assembly 60201136.
The strobe light requires its own external power, either AC or DC.
