A.3 Auxiliary Connector J2 Pinout

The HI level and LO level contacts are provided for external use by the
customer. When a HI or LO level condition exists, the respective contact
pairs are closed. All setpoints have 1/2 mm hysteresis, therefore the
respective contact pairs may “chatter” if the liquid sloshes, bubbles, etc.

The HI level and LO level contacts also provide positive indication of a
power-off condition. With a power-off condition, both the HI level and LO
level contacts will be closed, which is a state unique to the power-off
condition.

The following table provides the specifications for the contacts:
