Unsupervised Alarm Input Configuration and Wiring
Unsupervised relay contacts are not terminated. They are wired as either normally open or
normally closed. Set switch 1 down. Set switch 2 up for normally closed (N.C.) or down for
normally open (N.O.). Refer to Figure 6.
Unsupervised modes are easily defeated and should not be used in critical situations when
security is most important.
