Personnel Alert: Base Station
User Manual
Alarm Relay Contact Wiring and
Configuration
The base station can be connected directly to an alarm
signalling device (fixed gas detector), such as the BW
GasPoint detector.
The base station has inputs for high, low, and system alarms.
The wetting voltage for these circuits are included with the
base. Depending upon the normally open (NO) normally
closed (NC) operation of the alarm contacts, each alarm
circuit can be configured to be NO or NC by setting dip
switch S1 on the radio board.
NO alarm contacts
NC alarm contacts
If no alarm contacts are installed, the S1 dip switch can be
used to trigger alarms to test the system setup.
aWarning
If the area is classified, the base station must
be deenergized before testing alarm contacts.
Connect each alarm circuit to the positions marked on the
removable 6-wire screw down connector on the radio board.
