High alarm loads and third party alarms
You can use the alarm output to switch a relay. This may be useful
for connecting high loads such as third party alarm sounders or
inductive loads to the C-Series multifunction display. If you are in
any doubt as to how to make such connections please consult an
authorized installer.
The C-Series multifunction display has a positive switched alarm
output. The following circuit shows the arrangement for connection
