Connecting an Environmental Probe


The CX-6p-PoE has two connector ports on the rear of the unit where AFI Environmental
Probe devices such as the P-TAH or P-VFP can be connected. These ports are located
all the way to the right of the unit when looking at it from the rear.

To connect an AFI environmental probe, use the cable provided with the probe. Plug the
smaller end of the cable into the probe. Plug the larger, flat end of the cable into the CX-
6p-PoE. The LED on the probe should illuminate green. It may briefly flash red when
first connected, and then yellow for a few seconds after initially being connected, before
turning solid green with intermittent yellow flashes.

The CX-6p-PoE will automatically determine which type of probe has been installed and
read alarm and warning data stored in the probe into memory.
