Alarm Output Module

 

Available Outputs

 

The AOM provides four output contacts which may be selected from the condi-
tions listed below. Each output (except time, daily ET, and the “User” outputs) 
remains active as longs as the alarm condition exists. The time and daily ET 
outputs remain active for one minute. The “User” outputs must be activated 
and deactivated by the user via the WeatherLink Software for that station. Also 
shown in the table below are the pin assignments for each of the three consoles. 
The “Radio Power” output is used to control switching of power to radio when 
in the power-conserving mode (see “AOM Connections for Radio Power-Con-
serving Options” on page 12).

 

Contact Specifications

 

The “contact” closure is provided by a photo-coupled MOS device. Because it 
is a solid-state device, it is not subject, as long as the load conditions are within 
specification, to arcing and contact-welding as are mechanical relays. The Con-
trol Output and Status contacts are rated as follows:
