To connect the router to external alarm-reporting devices, attach wires to the
and YELLOW ALARM relay contacts on the CIP. A system condition that triggers the red
or yellow alarm LED on the craft interface also activates the corresponding alarm relay
contact.
The terminal blocks that plug into the alarm relay contacts are supplied with the router.
They accept wire of any gauge between 28 AWG and 14 AWG (0.08 and 2.08 mm
which is not provided. Use the gauge of wire appropriate for the external device you are
connecting.
To connect an external device to an alarm relay contact:
Prepare the required length of wire with gauge between 28 AWG and 14 AWG (0.08

screwdriver to loosen the small screws on its side. With the small screws on its side
facing left, insert wires into the slots in the front of the block based on the wiring for
the external device. Tighten the screws to secure the wire.

to tighten the screws on the face of the block.
Attach the other end of the wires to the external device.

If attaching a reporting device for the other kind of alarm, repeat the procedure.
The router supports PICs that use various kinds of network cable, including multimode
and single-mode fiber-optic cable. For information about the type of cable used by each
PIC, see the PIC guide for your router.
You connect PICs to the network by plugging in network cable. To connect cable to the
PICs (see Figure 85 on page 131, which shows a fiber-optic PIC):
Have ready a length of the type of cable used by the PIC. For cable specifications, see
1.
the T1600 Core Router PIC Guide.
If the PIC cable connector port is covered by a rubber safety plug, remove the plug.

WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the
ends of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cable
connected to a transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
