Appendix I: Additional EMX Information541Connecting Contact Closure Sensors to OLD EMX2-888Follow the steps below to connect Raritan's or third-party contact closuredetectors/switches to the termination points labeled CONTACT SENSORif your EMX is the old EMX2-888 with a built-in spring-loaded terminalmodule.It is not guaranteed that all third-party detectors/switches are compatiblewith the EMX. You need to test the compatibility after installing them.Note: If you are using an EMX2-888 with a removable terminal module,see Connecting Contact Closure Sensors to EMX2-888 (on page 77).To connect sensors to old EMX2-888 contact closure terminals:1. Strip the insulation around 12 mm from the end of each wire ofdiscrete detectors/switches.2. Press and hold down the tiny rectangular buttons above thetermination points.Note: Each button controls the spring of each correspondingtermination point.3. Fully insert each wire of both detectors/switches into eachtermination point. Plug both wires of a detector/switch into the two terminationpoints to the left. Plug both wires of the other detector/switch into the twotermination points to the right.
