OPERATOR REMOTES
A. Visitor Jack:
Insert the dual-wire wrist cord of
a visitor here to connect him/her to ground. This
connection is not monitored, and it can only be used
when the operator jack is occupied. The WS Aware
Monitor will alarm if the visitor jack is used without an
occupied operator jack.
B. Big Brother Sensors:
Detects the presence of an
operator up to 12 inches away and alarms if a wrist
strap is not connected within 4 seconds to prevent
ungrounded handling of ESD susceptible items.
C. Monitored Operator Jack:
Insert the dual-wire wrist
cord of an operator here to monitor his/her body voltage
and connection to ground.
D. WS Aware Monitor Connector:
Use one of the
included mini-DIN operator remote cables to connect the
WS Aware Monitor to this connector.
Installation

3. Determine the mounting locations of the two
operator remotes. Their jacks should be accessible
to the operators. Locate them within reach of the
included mini-DIN operator remote cables. Use the
operator remotes' mounting tabs to secure them
underneath table tops or equipment.
4. Connect the included mini-DIN operator remote
cables to the operator remote connectors located on
the left-side of the WS Aware Monitor.
5. Route the mini-DIN operator remote cables from the
left-side of the WS Aware Monitor to their respective
operator remotes. Connect the cables to the back of
the operator remotes.
6. Insert the tinned terminations of the mat monitor
cords into the mat 1 and mat 2 terminals located
on the left-side of the WS Aware Monitor. Use a
small screwdriver or probe to push down the orange
spring contacts and open their respective terminal
gates. Insert the tinned wire, and let go of the
spring contact to latch onto the wire. Ensure that
the mat monitor switches are enabled if using these
monitored mat circuits.
7. Route the mat monitor cords from the left-side of the
WS Aware Monitor to their respective worksurface
mats. Use the included push and clinch snaps to
secure the cords to the grounded mats.
8. Insert stripped terminations of tool monitor wires
(not included) into the tool 1 and tool 2 terminals
located on the left-side of the WS Aware Monitor.
25-28 AWG wire may be used. Use a small
screwdriver or probe to push down the orange
spring contacts and open their respective terminal
gates. Insert the tinned wire, and let go of the
spring contact to latch onto the wire. Ensure that
the tool monitor switches are enabled if using these
monitored tool circuits.
