NetMax N8000 System Controller

Owner’s manual

The two left connections of the RELAY OUTPUTS are the READY/FAULT output of the N8000.
This floating output is closed when the N8000 is ready for operation and no error has occurred. It
is possible in IRIS-Net to configure which kind of error causes the contact to be opened. Due to
this feature, this contact is especially suitable for the integration of the N8000 in life safety
systems (closed current principle). An example application for the circuit of a control output is
shown in the following figure. An operating state of the N8000 (e.g. the overstepping of a
temperature limit) is indicated via a pilot light.

Audio Interfaces

Analog audio connecting cable

It is advisable to choose balanced cables (2 signal conductors + shield) with XLR connectors as
analog audio connections. Although all N8000 analog audio inputs and outputs can be used
unbalanced, balanced audio cable is the better choice. A balanced differential audio circuit can
prevent the injection of external noise into the audio path and is strongly recommended,
particularly for long cable runs.

ATTENTION:
The maximum allowable current at the 5 V output is 200 mA.
