Cooper Bussmann PS-EXP, PS-8, PS-6 manual Specifications and Ordering Information

POWERPATH™ Operating Modes (refer to Installation Manual):

Normal Mode: Provides constant 24 VDC output upon initiation by a voltage to input IN1 or IN2 or by a contact opening on DRY1 or DRY2. The unit returns to standby mode when the input is deactivated.

Wheelock Sync Mode: Provides signals for synchronization of patented Wheelock audible and strobe notification appliances. Audibles can also be silenced in this mode while the strobes continue to flash.

In>Out Sync Mode: Accepts a synchronization signal on the input to provide a coded output or synchronized output. This signal

may come from a FACP, another POWERPATH or a Wheelock DSM synchronization module. Caution: Do not use strobes on coded output circuits.

True Input Follower Mode: Accepts a coded signal on the input to provide a coded output with the same timing as the

input. The signal may come from a FACP, another POWERPATH or other coded source. Caution: Do not use strobes on coded output circuits.

Temporal Mode: Codes the output voltage in a code-3 temporal pattern to drive audible appliances such as horns,

bells or chimes. Caution: Do not use strobes on coded output circuits.
