RELAY OUTPUT INSTALLATION
The DX8000 has either 8 or 16 relay outputs, depending on your system’s configuration. Each output is programmed to function as either a
normally open or normally closed circuit. A signal from a relay output will operate the device connected to the output.
To wire a relay output:
1. Insert the blue terminal blocks into the relay sockets on the back panel of the recorder.
2. Connect one wire from the device to one of the relay output terminals 1 through 16.
3. Connect a second wire from the relay device to a GND terminal.
4. Refer to the Operation/Programming manual for information on how to program relay outputs.

IMPORTANT: The maximum relay power rating is 120 VAC, 0.5 A; 24 VDC, 1 A.
NOTE: Relay outputs do not have to correspond numerically to alarm inputs. All sensor input and relay output actions can be linked
through programming.
