Ring Cadence Mode OFF - relay is activated only during ringing
Switch 4 Auxiliary Relay Contacts (see section D)
ON
Wet (12VDC, 100mA maximum)
OFF
Dry (1 Amp maximum @ 30VDC)
DIP switch
2
is used for switching between different ring detection modes. In the
OFF
position, the strobe light and
relay will activate only while ring voltage is present and will turn off between rings. In the
ON
position, the strobe light
and relay will remain on for up to 5.75 seconds after the ringing has stopped. This allows the strobe light and relay to
remain on between rings of a standard ring cadence.
Note:
To use the Ring Cadence Mode, ring detection MUST be
enabled (DIP switch
1
-
ON
).
With DIP switch 4
OFF
, normally open and normally closed dry relay contacts are available on the orange, purple and
yellow wires. The contacts are rated at .5A @ 125VAC/1A @ 30VDC. If contacts are driving an inductive load, place a
suppression device at the load to snub high voltage spikes.
With DIP switch 4
ON
, wet/sw12VDC (100mA maximum) will be output on the yellow wire and “-” (GND) on the
black wire.
2. Loop/Off-hook Indication Only
Place DIP switch
1 OFF
and DIP switch
3 ON
. In this configuration, the
E-1600A-AST-EWP
will only flash the strobe
light while off-hook (while the emergency phone is in use).
1. Ring Indication Only
Place DIP switch
2
on the
1600A
phone board in the
OFF
position (not shown in the diagram - see
1600A Phone
Board Programming
section
J
).
Note:
With DIP switch
2
in the
OFF
position, the
1600A
emergency phone board
will not answer an incoming call.
The
BLK-4
control module can monitor for ringing any place along the ringing
line. Place DIP switch
1 ON
and DIP switch
3 OFF
.
3. Both Ring and Loop/Off-hook Indication
If the application requires ring and loop/off-hook indication, place DIP switch
1
and
3
in the
ON
position.

C. Ring Cadence Mode
D. Auxiliary Relay Contacts
E. Disable Feature
The “
Disable
” input can be connected to a switch for remotely disabling/turning off the strobe light and the device
controlled by the auxiliary contacts (camera, etc.).
Note:
The disable feature on the
E-1600A-AST2EWP
and
E-1600A-
BLT2EWP
is factory pre-wired to the “Info” push button. This prevents the strobe from activating when the “Info” push
button is pressed.
