2.1.6 Remote Reset

If the alarm relays are configured for latching operation it may be desirable to reset latched alarms from a remote location. In this case a normally open, momentary push-button switch may be connected across terminals RST and COM.

2.1.7 Sensor Separation/ Remote mounting of sensor

When necessary to mount sensor remotely (separated from transmitter) by way of junction box and conduit, it is important that the installer follow the necessary requirements and guidelines relating to sensor separation and cable selection. See Figure 11 for typical remote mounting of sensor. Also refer Section ‘2.1.2 Cable choice and guidelines’ for cable selection and wiring guidelines.

When sensors are being mounted remotely, consult the multi-purpose junction box manual (MAN-0081) for wiring instructions. Always ensure that the transmitter is supplying 10.5 - 32Vdc across the sensor power terminals (Vdc + and Com (-) ) of Net Safety junction box (JB-MPD-A/S).

The maximum distance between the sensor and transmitter is limited by the resistance of the connecting wiring, which is a function of the gauge of the wire being used. For effective communication, Net Safety limits the separation distance between sensor and transmitter to 2000ft using 16 AWG wire. See Appendix B for information on wire gauge and resistance.
