The relays, being user configurable, can be arranged to
activate for multiple alarm conditions or a single alarm
only. The logic can be inverted for individual relays so
that one becomes a controller failure indicator (use the
normally closed contact as this will also indicate if the
relay power has failed).

3.7 CONTROLLER POWER CONNECTIONS
Power for the Controller and its peripherals is derived from the DC bus or the highest charged battery. The Battery distribution
module has reverse polarity protection circuit that also serves to provide an
“or-ing” of the highest supply voltage for the Controller. No additional user connections are required to power the Controller or
provide system voltage regulation, if the battery distribution module is used.
3.8 FRONT PANEL USB COMMUNICATIONS CONNECTION
The front USB port on the Controller is configured as USB-slave and has a B-type connector. A standard USB A-to-B cable is
required. The Controller can only communicate via the USB port to a PC running the Sageview software.
The USB connection requires that a USB driver be installed on the PC. The first time the Controller is plugged into the PC via the
USB port, a Microsoft® Windows dialogue box will appear asking the user to install the Controller USB Interface drivers. The
Microsoft® Windows operating system should be able to find the drivers automatically on the Sageview CD-ROM, assuming it is in
the CD-ROM drive of the PC.
If Sageview is running when the unit is plugged in, a Windows dialogue box will appear asking the user if they wish to connect to the
unit immediately. Otherwise the user will need to select the Controller from the available controller USB devices in USB section in
the Connection Setup.
3.9 REMOTE COMMUNICATION CONNECTION
The remote communications module is:

The following sections describe the interfaces in more detail and cover some of the set up requirements for the more advanced
interfaces.
Termination of the line with resistors generally is not required. However, if high rate of data corruption is experienced (slow data
update in monitoring program), line termination resistors should be installed at both ends of the network. The value of the resistors
depends on the gauge of the twisted pair and should be equal (or closest) to line characteristic impedance. I.e. for a twisted pair of
24AWG wires characteristic impedance of 100ohm – use a 100ohm resistor.
