Connecting detectors other than TELEDYNE OLDHAM

Any user wishing to use detectors other than TELEDYNE OLDHAM SIMTRONICS detectors must
ensure that they are compatible with the controller, in order the complete installation to be
considered as a safety device.
Transfer table
The following table shows the controller status depending on the detector analog signal output.
In the event the user connects a non- TELEDYNE OLDHAM SIMTRONICS brand detector to the
MX 16 controller, the user must ensure that the detector is compatible with the input characteristics
of the controller, so that the information delivered by the detector will be properly interpreted. In
addition, the controller must provide sufficient supply voltage, taking into account voltage drops
in the cable.
