At the bottom of the CIP are two relay contacts for connecting the router to external alarm-reporting devices, the upper labeled RED ALARM and the lower YELLOW ALARM (see Figure 16). A system condition that causes the red or yellow alarm LED to light on the craft interface also activates the corresponding alarm relay contact. For instructions for attaching a device to the alarm relay contacts, see Connecting to an External Alarm-Reporting Device.
