Rj45 (Node) Jack - Zhone IMACS 8000 User Manual

Running Head
Using the RJ-45 Node Port
The RJ-45 Node port allows you to activate external alarms that alert on-site personnel to
critical situations. Using the ACO function will keep the alarm active until it is manually
cleared form a control terminal.
Connect the NODE jack of the INF+M card to the external alarm equipment. This is another
RJ-45 jack; it provides a set of form-C relay contacts to the external alarm equipment. Figure
C-12 shows the pin locations on this jack, which are the same as the COM2 jack. Table C-9
lists the associated signal pinouts.

The alarm interface is activated by the ACO setting. This will activate the device when a
designated alarm occurs. See chapter on Alarms to review the conditions and settings
necessary to enable this feature.
Connect pins 4 and 5 to provide an open relay contact to the external device upon occurrence
of an alarm. Or, connect pins 3 and 5 for a relay contact closure upon alarm.
