Figure 4 on page 10 shows an example of a wiring diagram for a simple output
alarm-reporting device. In this case, the device is a light bulb that illuminates when the
device encounters a condition that activates the red alarm LED and relay contacts. The
alarm relay contacts can also be used to activate other devices such as bells or buzzers.
Figure 4: Sample Output Alarm-Reporting Device
Figure 5 on page 11 shows an example of a wiring diagram for a simple input
alarm-reporting device. In this case, the push button switch is an alarm sensor that triggers
an input alarm when a door-open condition occurs.
