Latching Input
Latching of the FAI Input is achieved by placing a NC
contact across the two ‘L’ terminals . The FAI may be acti-
vated by any of the methods listed . FAI Deactivates when
the input is deactivated AND the NC Latching contact is
momentarily OPENED .
Example – NO Contact activation with latching
FAI Activates when the NO contact CLOSES . FAI Deacti-
vates when the NO contact OPENS AND the NC contact
momentarily OPENS .
