Operational Check Out Procedure for the MX001 Box:
The following procedure provides a basic test of the MX001 hardware and
confirms effective communication with the HoloSet program. This quick test
should be preformed before the MX001 box has been configured by the HoloSet
program for its final application. These steps are not required for proper
installation and application programming of the MX001 box.
1. Do not connect a sensor to the MX001 at this time. Tighten each sensor
terminal block screw by turning each screw clockwise.
2. Temporarily place both S and A SET UP jumpers (J1 and J2) at
positions 5 and 6.
3. Connect a standard 60W light bulb in a wired test socket to the TRIAC
terminal block at the TRIAC OUT and NEUTRAL terminals. This lamp
will act as a load for the TRIAC. (Do Not try to monitor TRIAC output
without a load connected.)
4. Connect the MX001 box to the scanner with the scanner link cable.
5. Apply power to both the MX001 and the scanner. The green LED inside
the MX001 should light.
6. If a volt meter is available, measure the DC output voltage between the
+12V OUT and COMMON terminals on the sensor terminal block. This
voltage should be between 11.5 and 12.5 volts DC.
7. Temporarily program the TECH options of the scanner using HoloSet
for the following:
• Support Line Sensor
• Support Line Sensor Alarm
• Support TRIAC
• TRIAC Normally On
• Activate on No Read
8. After programming, the MX001’s red TRIAC LED should light and the
test light bulb should be on.
9. Short the S IN- terminal screw to the COMMON terminal screw with a
short piece of wire. The red S IN LED should light and the test light bulb
connected to the TRIAC output should flash off then back on.
