External Alarm:
Four external alarm sources can be connected to the repeater; the alarm operating voltage must be
between 12 and 24VDC.
Alarm polarity can be configured:
●
Active-low - when there is no voltage the alarm indicator will show a fault.
●
Active-high - an applied voltage of between 12 and 24 V will cause the external alarm
indicator will show a fault.
The repeater can supply +15 VDC to an external alarm source through terminals 9 and 10. The
maximum allowed load is 100mA.
Relay Output:
The Relay Output (terminals 11 and 12) can be connected to an external device to indicate an alarm.
The output can be configured to trigger on any number of internal and external alarms. The
maximum current that can be supplied is 100mA.
