Outputs For Reject and Signal Devices
The detector has internal timing circuitry for the control of a variety of
reject and alarm devices. Instructions for setting the reject delay and
operate timing are given later in this manual.
The outputs that are configurable can be changed by using the keypad (see
Menus 67 - 70 on the flow chart).
Three outputs are unpowered, or dead, contacts; in order to use them to
control reject or alarm devices, a power source must be supplied. The
customer may supply the source or use the fused 115 VAC source available
at Terminal F1.
If the metal detector and pipeline system were ordered as a system on a
support stand from the factory, all interconnections have already been
made.

Wiring for Auxiliary Equipment Stop on Detection of Metal
See Fig. 2.
Instructions for setting the delay and operate timing are on page 18. Wire
the equipment motor control relay in series with Output 1 Terminals 3 and
4. Check the front panel to confirm that Output 1 is configured as
normally closed.
When metal is detected, Output 1 contacts 3 and 4 will open and cause the
control relay in the motor starter to de-energize, thus stopping the
external equipment. This occurs after the delay time has elapsed.
Use the delay time if you want the external equipment to stop after a
certain period of time. If you want the equipment
set the delay time to zero. (Use the keypad and Menus 60 and 61.) The
equipment may be restarted after the operate time has elapsed.
WARNING: Do not wire full motor voltage through the metal detector
contacts. They should be used for control voltage only.
