2.5 Connecting the External Alarm Port
An external alarm panel can be connected to the external alarm port (Figure 2.7). The port’s
contacts are rated at 30 VDC at 1 Amp.
An Emergency Power Off (EPO) switch is created by wiring a switch to Pins 7 and 8.
• The switch must be a SPST, N.O. type and be electrically isolated (up to 1500 VAC
isolation is recommended). The connecting cable can be twisted or shielded wire not
more than 100 ft. long.
• The contacts must be shorted for at least 1.5 seconds with unit shutdown about 2 seconds
after the shorting starts.
CAUTION: The EPO switch does not disconnect the utility line. Switch off the circuit
breaker providing line power to the unit.
