5.1 Input Configuration
In preparing the Model 1108 to sense an alert condition, the
inputs must be configured as dry contact (either open or closed)
or as temperature inputs. The default setting for input 1 is
temperature; for inputs 2-8, the default is dry contact and open.
To configure input normality, sensors are first wired to the
terminal strip at the back of the unit. (Refer to Chapter 2,
Section 2.92.12, for an explanation on wiring inputs.)
The configuration process directs the Model 1108 to initialize
the 8 inputs and establish normal settings. Any change in the
status of an input (for example, from a normally open contact
to a suddenly closed contact) is recognized as an alert condi-
tion. In the case of a temperature input, an alert condition is
recognized when established temperature limits are exceeded.
