How do I set up the inputs and outputs on the NOTIFIER 2C8M NION Board?

[LaCarson]

Configuring the inputs and outputs on your NOTIFIER 2C8M NION Board is essential for your monitoring and control system. Here's how to do it, based on the installation guide:

Inputs Configuration:

1. The NION board supports eight dry contact inputs, which can be configured as normally open or normally closed.
2. Each normally open input is monitored with an end-of-line resistor.
3. Wire the inputs to the 16-point plug-in terminal strip, following the pattern labeled on the printed circuit board (PCB).
4. For each normally open input circuit, install a 10k EOL resistor in parallel with the contact.
5. Select the input style (NO or NC) using jumpers JP4 through JP11, setting them to your preferred configuration.
6. Each input has a pair of LEDs: a red LED indicates an alarm state (short), and a yellow LED signifies a trouble state (open).

Outputs Configuration:

1. The 2C8M NION provides two SPDT relay outputs, each rated at 5A @ 30VDC.
2. You can wire these relays for either normally open or normally closed operation.
3. All specified load ratings are for resistive loads. For specialized applications, please consult with a NOTIFIER applications engineer.

Important Considerations:

• Keep input and output lines under 2000ft.
• To fully utilize all features, configure the 2C8M Scheduling Plug-In utility through your system workstations. Refer to your Workstation manual for detailed Plug-In setup instructions.
