Outputs
Alarm
Output: Alarm output through normally-open (NO) relay in
FCA‑500 base. An alarm resistance of 0 Ω or
680 Ω in series to the relay can be chosen.
Relay Rating: 1 A at 30 VDC
Reset Time The detector resets if power is interrupted for at
least 2 sec.
Display
Two-color LED: Red = alarm, green = test mode, normal
Remote LED: Normally-open (NO) relay connects ground
through 1.5 kΩ, 20 mA maximum
Trouble
Output: Trouble output through normally-closed (NC)
relay in FCA-500 base
Relay Rating: 1 A at 30 VDC
