○Buzzer On/Off Switch: The default position of the buzzer switch is OFF. If you want to enable this function, there is a button inside the hole, please insert a paper clip or small pointed object into the hole and press the button. In case of utility failure (on battery), it will emit a long beep. In case of low battery, it will emit a short beep.
Communication Signals
The communication signals of this unit are isolated from the internal circuitry via open collector Opto-coupled transistors. The connection “SIG RTN” (Signal Return) is a common return point for all communication signals. In the typical application, the attached equipment digital ground connects to Signal Return, and pull-up resistors turn the open collector signals into logic levels.
