Caution: The IMS sensors are not TCP/IP devices and therefore should not be
connected directly to any wiring infrastructure that is connected to network equipment
such as a hub, router, or switch. Sensors use RJ-45 plugs and cables similar to those
used with Ethernet devices.
Mounting
The Dry Contact Bridge can be mounted to a wall or lie flat on the floor. To mount it to a wall,
install the two drywall anchors (if necessary) and attach the bridge using the two #6 tapping screws.
When installing the sensor on the floor, attach the four rubber feet to the bottom of the enclosure.

Configuration
All IMS Solution sensors are auto-configured when you plug them into the IMS-1000. When a
new sensor is plugged into the IMS-1000, the configuration is set to the factory default via the
Sensor Template.
If you have modified these templates, the configuration will be set to the modi-
fied configuration. When a sensor is removed, or the connection is disrupted, the configuration
data remains intact but the sensor will go into trouble status and generate a trouble alarm. When
the sensor is plugged in again, or the connection is re-established, configuration data remains
unchanged and the sensor returns to normal operating condition.
Caution: Removing a sensor for less than 60 seconds does not produce a trouble alarm.
Removing or unplugging a sensor for more than 60 seconds or plugging in a different
sensor at any time will cause a trouble alarm.
