Quick Start Manual<\/a><\/pre>\n\n
Overview<\/h2>\n\n
The extension module (system port) is used for the direct extension of Kentix devices with input\/output functions, e.g. for alarm\/fault messages or switching functions. The following input\/output channels are available:<\/p>\n\n
– Connection of up to two external messages via potential-free<\/strong> contacts– Activation or switching of up to 2 external devices via relay contacts (changeover contact)<\/p>\n\n
The module is connected to the Kentix system socket (RJ45) of the respective device. The extension module is supplied with power via the system socket of the remote station and does not require an external power source. The cable length between the remote station and the module should not exceed 10-20 meters. The relays are equipped with changeover contacts and can be loaded with up to 60VDC\/3A, the inputs may only be connected potential-free.<\/p>\n\n

Connections<\/h2>\n\n
External devices that are to be switched via the relays of the expansion module must be supplied with voltage independently<\/strong>!  
If, for example, a signal light is to be switched in the event of an alarm, the power supply for the signal light must be external. The relay only opens or closes the circuit at the respective event. The relays are designed as changeover contacts.<\/p>\n\n

  1. Kentix system port (port 1, RJ45) for connection to the system port of the remote station, e.g. AlarmManager, MultiSensor (Ethernet) or AccessManager (wireless). The second socket (port 2, RJ45) serves as an output socket for forwarding the signals.<\/li>
  2. Connection block (hinged spring terminal) for external wiring, see assignment and example wiring diagrams.<\/li><\/ol>
