Wireless Indication Auxiliary

Introduction

The wireless indication auxiliary provides remote and local information about the circuit breaker status.

The position of the wireless indication auxiliary inside the case, and the setting of the gateway or Panel Server, determine its function. The wireless indication auxiliary provides the following information remotely:

Position of wireless indication auxiliary Information provided

OF slot

Open/close circuit breaker status

SD slot

Trip indication

SDE slot

Electrical fault indication

When in the SD slot, the wireless indication auxiliary can be configured to indicate a circuit breaker trip locally. The status LED blinks orange for eight hours.

The wireless indication auxiliary must be paired with a gateway or Panel Server.

The wireless indication auxiliary is powered by an internal battery. It sends a notification to indicate that the battery needs to be replaced.

For more information about installation, consult the instruction sheet on the Schneider Electric website: NNZ8882801 Wireless Indication Auxiliary
