3.10 Alarm and Contact I/O Cabling
CAUTION
It is recommended to use signal cables, relay terminals, relays, power units, and other devices
that comply with CSA 61010-1 or CSA 60950-1 (for 100-120 V AC) or EN 61010-1 (for 220-240 V
AC) standards when connected to contact output terminal.
Status Contact Output Connection
Each CS 3000 device is provided with a terminal which makes contact output to external if a
power failure or processor failure is detected. The output contact rating of each device is shown
below.

Use of Lamps
When you want to turn on lamps using contacts, use the following lamps:
• The rated voltage of lamp does not exceed the rated contact voltage.
• When using incandescent lamps, their rush current does not exceed the rated contact
current. It is considered to be 10 to 15 times the rated current. If the rush current exceed
the rated contact current, use a dim lamp resister or a rush current preventing resistor. It
is recommended to use a dim lamp resistor using 40 to 50 % of the lamp current rating, or
a rush current preventing resistor using 80 to 90 % of the lamp current rating. A dim lamp
resistor permits detection of lamp failure.
Be sure to test the lamp before installation.
