3c.3.2.5 ‘Two out of Four’ Opto-output Alarm System
In the following diagrams (5A & 5B)
indicate the electrode channel selected for
each opto-output. A fully functioning system (NO FAULTS) will perform a low level trip at
electrode level 3. For a high level trip, using electrode channels 11, 12, 9 and 10
respectively and switch SW5 set for W, a healthy system would trip at level 10.
Case A - Opto-output circuit normally open circuit, short circuit one pair to trip
