Power On Self Test (POST)

When the power switch is turned on, the red and green input LEDs will begin a blinking pattern to indicate that the unit is booting up and performing internal diagnostic tests. The unit will also beep once, 25 seconds after power is applied. When the LEDs stop blinking, the unit is fully booted and operational. The boot and Power On Self Test take approximately 2 minutes.

Connecting Sensors

The RIM-600 Host has eight sensor inputs. Each input can accept any sensor type. Sensors are available to monitor the following:

n Temperature

n Smoke

n Humidity

n Security

n Water detection

n Motion

n AC voltage

 

n Alarm contacts from external equipment

All RIM-600 sensors connect to the Host using standard RJ-45 cables. This makes it easy to con- nect sensors directly to the unit. Simply plug one end of the cable into the sensor and the other end into one of the sensor inputs on the Host.
