Contacts Screen

Overview

The PDU can monitor external contact closure events. Possible applications include the following:

Magnetic contact switches

Window foil

Tamper switches

Heat detectors

Water sensors

Pressure sensors

Building smoke and fire detection systems

You can set input contacts to cause alarm conditions based on their current state and a user-defined normal state. Relay outputs can map internal alarms and events to outside devices. Use the Contacts screen to display and configure information about input contacts and relay outputs.

Input Contacts

Scroll through the list to display information about each of the

 

installed input contacts. For example 02of04 displays

 

information about the second of four installed input contacts.

 

Name—The name of this input contact (Maximum: 14

 

 

alphanumeric characters).

 

Normal—The normal position of this input contact, either

 

 

Open or Closed.

 

Status—The position of this input contact. If the position is

 

 

not the normal position, an alarm condition occurs.

Relay Outputs

Scroll through the list to display information about each of the

 

installed relay outputs. For example 04of04 displays information

 

about the fourth of four available relay outputs.

 

Name—The name of this relay output (Maximum: 14

 

 

alphanumeric characters).

 

Normal—The normal position of this relay output, either

 

 

Open or Closed.

 

Status—Theposition of this relay output.

See “Relay Outputs” on page 68 for relay output specifications.
