Connecting the Alarm Relay Wires to the MX2010 Craft Interface

date_range 09-Mar-21

Here’s how to connect the alarm relay wires between a router and an alarm-reporting device (see Figure 1):

  1. Prepare the required length of replacement wire with gauge between 28 AWG (0.08 mm2) and 14 AWG (2.08 mm2).
  2. Insert the replacement wires into the slots in the front of the block (see Table 1). Use a 2.5-mm flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the screws and secure the wire.
  3. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis.
  4. Plug the terminal block into the relay contact, and use a 2.5-mm flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the screws on the face of the block.
  5. Attach the other end of the wires to the external device.
