GC-SC1 

Contact Closure Sensor

 

The Global Caché GC-SC1 is a contact closure sensor.  Its circuitry provides a 
rapid response to contact closure (4mS typ) with a slow response to contact opens 
(75mS typ).  This eliminates false triggers due to contact bounce created by 
mechanical contacts coming together, such as push buttons or relays.  The 
following illustrates a typical push button installation along with the GC-SC1 
response.

The GC-SC1 plugs directly into the GC-100 Network Adapter’s IR/Sensor 
connector for proper operation.  (The GC-100 connector must be configured as 
an input. See the 

GC-100 Quick Start

 for more information.)  The GC-SC1 is 

connected directly across the contacts, with the open/close state to be determined.  
There is no polarity to the wiring.  Below is a typical installation using the GC-
SC1.
