Figure 8. Wiring the Remote RS-232 and Alarm Connector
ATTENTION: The length of exposed wires is critical. The ideal length is
3/16 inch (5 mm).
Longer bare wires can short together.
Shorter wires are not as secure in the connectors and could be pulled out.
Cross the Tx and Rx lines once between the source and the target.
The alarm pins do not produce any discrete on or off or voltage signals. It is an internal relay
to connect or disconnect a custom alarm circuit.
NOTE: If power is lost or if link 2 optical light is disconnected, lost, or broken, alarm
pins 1 and 2 internally short.
