CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN This symbol alerts you to the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within the product's enclosure that might be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock. Do not open the product's case. This symbol informs you that important operating and main- tenance instructions are included in the literature accompanying this product.
(SPDT) relays The Eclipse system supports up to 10 GPI-6 interfaces, for a total of 60 outputs. You can use a mix of GPI-6 and RLY-6 interfaces to support up to a total of 60 that are directly controlled outputs and/or inputs.
OPERATION Once the RLY-6 is installed and configured there are no controls for day-to-day operation. Operation of each individual relay is indicated by LEDs. The TEST switches for each relay can be used to operate a given relay to test that connection.
TO MATRIX To connect the RLY-6 to the matrix, plug one end of a RJ-45 cable (eight wires with no reversal) into the GPI-RLY INTERFACE connector on the back of the matrix. Plug the other end into the top RJ-45 (CH. A MATRIX) connector for the RLY-6.
"daisy-chain" wiring. If there are multiple RLY-6 modules, the relays in the first module are numbered 1 to 6; the relays in the second module are numbered 7 to 12, etc. GPI-6 modules can be mixed in this 'daisy-chained' scheme.
