TX1 Installation
63
Auxiliary Input
The AUX closed contact input allows the recall of two additional scenes within the TX1. An
installation may utilize the two contact inputs to recall two additional scenes within the TX1
Transmitter when not connected to an external control system, such as a DMX control source.
These can be used in conjunction with a fire alarm system or momentary remote push buttons.
CAUTION:
Do not connect line voltage to the AUX closed contact input
terminals.

1. Make sure all power is off at the remote
contact accessory.
2. See
Wire and Terminal Specifications on
for specification of wire, strip
length, and terminal torque ratings. Prepare
the wires accordingly.
3. Terminate ground and auxiliary contact
wires to the auxiliary input terminals.
a. Install the ground (common) wire
(typically green/yellow) to the "GND"
terminal and secure the screw onto the
wire. If your system requires two
auxiliary contact inputs, the ground
terminal will accept both wires.
b. Install the auxiliary input wire to the
"I/P 1" terminal and secure the screw
onto the wire.
c. As needed, for systems requiring an
additional auxiliary contact input,
install the auxiliary input wire to the
"I/P 2" terminal and secure the screw
onto the wire.
Final Installation and Power Up
1. Check that all wires are terminated properly and secure in their terminals.
2. Reinstall the cover using the two screws previously removed.
3. Check the front panel LEDs for status indication.
