Benchmark Platinum-Edge [ii]: Operation-Service Manual
SECTION 5 – SAFETY DEVICE TESTING

5.6 INTERLOCK TESTS

The unit is equipped with three interlock circuits, called the Remote Interlock, and Delayed
Interlock. These circuits are connected to the I/O board's connector strip J6, labeled Remote
Interlock, Delayed Interlock 1 and Delayed Interlock 2 (see Section 2.11.1: I/O Board
Connections in the Benchmark Platinum-Edge: INSTALLATION Manual (GF-210). These
circuits can shut down the unit in the event an interlock is opened. These interlocks are shipped
from the factory jumpered (closed). However, they may be utilized in the field as a remote stop
and start, an emergency cut-off, or to prove that a device such as a pump, gas booster, or
louver is operational.
