Architects' And Engineers' Specifications
The 8-Output Signal Relay Board(s) shall be Alpha
Communications® AlphaEntryseries RY008AE or equivalent. Each
RY008AE board shall provide 8 output relays, which will be
triggered and time controlled by the AlphaEntrysystem
software. Each relay shall be rated for 1A, and shall be field
selectable for NO or NC output contacts. Each relay shall have a
diagnostic LED which will remain lighted as long as that relay is
activated. Multiple RY008AE boards can be daisy-chained and can
be inter-mixed with the RY032AE 32-relay boards as needed. Each
system shall require a model KE-PWR5/2A 5VDC, 2A plugin power
supply and a model CT032AE6 serial cable to connect the first
RY008AE board to the PC's serial output connector. The RY008AE
relay boards shall surface mount right onto the finished wall (or
wooden mounting board) by means of screw mounting on top of
(4) plastic stand-offs (provided).
All wiring to relay shall be low-voltage Class II wiring, installed as
per all federal, state, and local electrical and building codes.
RY008AE AlphaEntry 8-Output Signal Relay Board
The Alpha CommunicationRY008AE 8-Output Signal Relay
Boards are used to provide 8 timed relays to be triggered by our
AlphaEntrysoftware, running on a Windows based PC. The
primary use is for an entry intercom (or video-intercom) system,
with a PC-based graphical directory and calling system. Multiple
RY008AE boards can be used on each AlphaEntry system, and
can be intermixed with the RY032AE 32-relay boards as well. Each
relay comes factory set as Normally Open (NO), but can
individually be changed to Normally Closed (NC) by moving a simple
jumper adjacent to each relay. The RY008AE boards are powered
from a 5VDC, 2A plug-in power supply (model KE-PWR5/2A). The
first RY008AE board connects to the PC using a model# CT032AE6
connector cable (as extender cable as required).
Each of the 8 relays have a diagnostic LED that will light as long
as the associated relay is activated.
The RY008AE relay boards are designed to easily surface mount
right onto the finished wall (or wooden mounting board) by means
of screw mounting on top of plastic stand-offs (provided). Relay
connections are positive screw terminal type, using barrier type
terminal connector strips.
