Installing a Re mote Activation Input to the ALCR-PP
The ALCR-PP offers a normally closed, dry contact input to accommodate connection
to fire alarm panels, security systems, and test switch. This input ships from the factory
with a blue wire loop off the right side of the unit, this complete loop disables remote
activation. Do not cut this jumper unless you are installing a remote triggering device.
The remote device that triggers the Emergency circuit "On" must provide a normally
closed, maintained dry contact closure for fire alarms, etc. When the remote device is
activated, the contact closure opens and the contacts force the ALCR-PP into the
emergency "On" state.

Installation and Termination of the ALCR-DIN
The ALCR-DIN is designed to attach to lighting control panels or electrical enclosures
that are fitted with DIN-rail (compatible with DIN43880 and EN60715).
• Screw terminal connectors are provided on the unit for connection of normal sense
and emergency power wires.
• Another screw terminal connector is provided on the bottom of the unit including four
screw terminals:
• A wire loop (jumper) is factory installed into two terminals and allows connection to a
remote triggering device (dry contact, normally closed for fire alarms, test switch, etc.).
When the normally closed contact is triggered, the contact input will open, activating the
emergency lighting On.
• The remaining two screw terminals allow termination of 0-10V / Fluorescent lighting
control.
Autom atic Lo ad C ont rol R el ay
The remote triggering device, a test switch or an emergency system (fire alarm
panel or security system) must be installed within 1,000 feet of the ALCR when
using 18AWG wire.
ETC highly recommends that you power up and test your system before
connecting to a remote device.
Do not cut the factory installed jumper unless you are installing a remote
triggering device.
Cut the blue wire loop in the middle of the wire lead. Doing this provides two leads
which are the connection point for both the contact input and contact output
connections to a remote triggering device.
Connect the two leads to the normally closed single pole contacts on the remote
device or test switch.
