Jumper settings
For circuits configured as NACs, the NAC pairs share a
common power/signal source. Two jumpers on the module
select the signal source for each NAC pair. See Figure 2 for
jumper pin numbers.
Notes
• Jumper positions must be set in parallel. Set jumpers in
both JP1 and JP2 the same. Set jumpers in both JP3 and
JP4 the same.
• Jumpers have no effect when the IDC/NAC circuits are
configured as IDC circuits.

[1] Supplied via NAC IN terminals.

Wiring
Connect field wiring as shown in Figure 2.
• Wiring is supervised and power-limited.
• Maintain 0.25 in. (6 mm) separation between power-
limited and nonpower-limited wiring at all times. Route the
power-limited wiring through the notches at the right front
of the chassis. Secure the wiring to the cabinet using
nylon cable ties.
• If shielded cable is used, it must be continuous, free from
earth ground, and must only be connected to the ground
terminal on the source of the riser.
• Dedicated initiating device circuits (Class B, Style B):
IDC3, IDC4, IDC7, IDC8.
• Circuits configurable as IDC or NAC (Class B, Style Y):
IDC/NAC1, IDC/NAC2, IDC/NAC5, IDC/NAC6.
• Synchronized operation of Genesis strobes requires a
separately installed synchronization device. See the
control panel or power supply compatibility list for
compatible synchronization devices.
• For a list of 3-IDC8/4 compatible devices, see the EST3
Compatibility List (P/N 3100427-EN) and EST3X
Compatibility List (P/N 3101801-EN).

Note: Signal polarity is shown in supervisory mode. For an NAC, the
polarity reverses when the circuit is active.
