Functions
You can manually activate two pins of the DATA INTERFACE using
GE MDS' InSite NMS software. These two outputs (#1–Pin 22 and
#2–Pin 15) can be connected to compatible user-provided data devices.
The pins provide either a logic high or low depending on the last com-
mand from the
USER I/O SETTINGS
screen of InSite. In this InSite window, clicking the
output to high, and clicking on
shows the software controls.
One pin on the DATA INTERFACE can be configured as a digital

is selected, Pin 16 becomes a digital input. The input is
DIN ON
set when 5 V is applied, and clear when grounded. The same physical
input can be queried as the analog input value on other InSite screens.
