Switched Output
The Cab Alert unit provides an Open Drain (floating) output. This output pulls to ground whenever the
alarm is active. This low current output (less than 100mA capacity) controls an external relay that can
switch other equipment or devices during Tag detection. An external relay can be connected to control
warning devices or “lockout” controls. A
protection diode
(such as 1N4001 or 1N4007) should be
placed across the relay control coil as shown.
