How to Connect an EPO Switch to the ATS

Overview

Connecting the switch.

The Emergency Power Off

(EPO) switch connects to the user interface board on the

user connection plate. The user connection plate is

located on the roof of the ATS. Connect an EPO switch

to the user interface board (shown at right) using one of

the following connections:

• Contact closure (Recommended!)

• 24 VAC

• 24 VDC

You can make this connection from inside the enclosure, or you

can remove the user connection plate from the ATS to make the

connection. A Phillips or standard screwdriver is needed to loosen

the two captive screws. Use the knockout in this plate to route

cables to the user interface board. If you decide to remove the

plate, make sure not to disturb the existing connections.

Configuring and testing.

The configuring and testing of the

switch is performed through the EPO interface on the ATS

monitoring unit. The figure on the right shows the monitoring unit

and the location of the EPO LEDs and DIP switches.

Note

If you do not connect an EPO switch to the ATS, be sure to set the Arm/Test rocker on

the ATS monitoring unit to Test.

Note

The terminal block on the user interface board accepts

wire sizes from 12 to 30 AWG or 2.5 to 0.2 mm
