TL Series FAQ

1. Question: What type of output signal can one expect to see from the AC Fail and DC fail alarms that are accessible via the 20 pin connector located on the rear of the TLR5 rack?

Answer: In the normal state - no alarm- the opto coupler is on. In the alarm state the opto is off. The analog equivalent to this is a switch. In the alarm condition, the switch is open. In the normal condition, the switch is closed.
