Connecting the Alarm Relay Wires to the MX480 Craft Interface
To connect the alarm relay wires between a router and an alarm-reporting
device (see Figure 1):
- Prepare the required length of replacement wire
with gauge between 28-AWG and 14-AWG (0.08 and 2.08 mm2).
- Insert the replacement wires into the slots in
the front of the block. Use a 2.5-mm flat-blade screwdriver to tighten
the screws and secure the wire.
- Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap
to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to one of the ESD points
on the chassis.
- Plug the terminal block into the relay contact,
and use a 2.5-mm flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the screws on the
face of the block.
- Attach the other end of the wires to the external
device.
