diagram with specific recommendations for the sensor's configuration can be printed
from the WebCal program. A typical wiring diagram is shown on the next page.
Red and Black leads are for connection to a 24 VDC power supply or to a 4-20 mA
loop power source. The red and black wires can be extended more than 1000 feet
using 22 gauge or larger wire, however do not extend the green and white wires.
White and Green leads are reserved for use with WebCal and should not be
connected during usage in the application. These wires should not be connected to
WebCal while power is supplied from any source other than the LI99 FOB.
Never allow the white or green wires to touch any power supply.
Blue, Orange, Yellow and Purple wires are the relay contacts (normally open) from
each of the relays respectively.
The Brown wire is the common for all of the relays.
