A - Two Pin Terminal Block — Used to connect utility 240 VAC from fuse block in ATS to the control board. Connect only one wire per terminal.

B - Fault Contacts — Use NO, COM and NC to hook up a siren, light, etc. to alert you in case of a fault. Contacts reverse state (NO goes to NC and vice versa) upon a fault condition.

C - Transfer Switch Communication (TxRx and TxRx GND) — Connect to transfer switch control board for communication interface using 18AWG twisted pair wire.

D - +LED and GND Connection — Not required for wireless monitor included with unit. Available for optional hardwired remote system status panel accessory, #6154.

E - Eight Pin Terminal Block — Used to connect signal wires to the control board. Connect only one wire per terminal.

F - Power Connection (Line 1 and Line 2) — Power connection to transfer switch.

G - Neutral and Ground Connection — Connect to transfer switch neutral and ground
