Make sure the power source is

turned

off.

Remove the housing cover.

Electrical power must be disconnected from explosion proof models before
the cover is removed. Failure to do so could result in severe personal injury
or substantial property damage.

Pull twisted pair cable through the conduit connection and into the control housing.

Connect dry contact wires to TB2 on the control board. (See

) Terminals are

labeled “RMT COM” and “RMT TST*”. Attach the twisted pair shield to the ground

screw inside the housing. Ground only one end of the twisted pair shield.

Do not apply power to the remote test terminals.

Connect the open end of the wires to a dry (unpowered) contact designed for small

loads. There is no polarity required for this connection.
