To connect an alarm device to the alarm port, follow these steps.

Note The alarm connector is a 3-wire connector that plugs into a receptacle on the back of the chassis. The connector is provided in the accessory kit that ships with the universal gateway.

Step 1 Insert the 3-pin alarm port connector (included in the accessory kit) into the alarm port terminal block.

Step 2 Strip a minimum of 1/4 in. (0.625 cm) off the wire insulation to connect the stranded wires to the alarm connector. The maximum insulation strip length is 0.31 in. (0.78 cm).

Note Use stranded number 12 or number 14 AWG copper wires to connect an alarm device to the alarm port connector.

Step 3 Secure the wires to the alarm connector with the screws on the connector. (See Figure 33 and Figure 34.)

Caution The maximum tightening torque on the screws is 7 in.-lb (0.79 N-m).
