8.2 Product Overview The Smart-Vue dry contact wireless module can be connected to any
industry-standard device with a dry contact output. Dry contact devices do
not generate any power. The Smart-Vue module emits a low current to
detect whether the switch on the other device is open or closed.
Typical devices that provide a dry contact output include alarm units, door
open/close sensors, and switches. The Smart-Vue module can be configured
to detect either a “normally closed” or “normally open” state to correspond
with the device to monitor. The Smart-Vue module indicates open or closed
in large characters on its LCD display.
