The state of the NO contact is open:
-
for OF contacts when the circuit breaker is in the O (OFF) position.
-
for SD, SDE, and SDV contacts when the associated function is not active.
Operation of the Wireless Indication Auxiliaries
The wireless indication auxiliary provides the same information as a standard wired auxiliary contact in OF, SD, or SDE positions. The information is sent remotely to a gateway or Panel Server.
During commissioning of the wireless indication auxiliary, the user defines the type of information sent: Open/Close or Trip.
