Physical Description

Item		Description
1	AC line inlet	Input power connection.
2	Switched Outlet	Provides power to a device at a maximum of 10 A. Activates a connected device when configured events occur. (For example, a fan may be connected to this outlet, and the outlet may be configured to turn on when a high threshold violation occurs for a temperature sensor.)
3	Wireless Sensor Network	USB port with NetBotz USB Coordinator (NBWC100U) installed. Used with included Wireless Temperature Sensor (NBWS100T) to monitor temperature. Additional wireless sensors can be purchased separately.
4	Rack Access Ports	Ports for the door switch sensors on doors #1 and #2. Ports for the handle sensors (NBHN125 or NBHN1356) on doors #1 and #2.
5	Beacon Port	Used for connecting an alarm beacon (AP9324).
6	Universal Sensor ports	Used to connect APC by Schneider Electric sensors and third-party dry contact sensors. Third-party dry contact sensors require a Dry Contact Cable (NBES0304).
7	USB Port	Used to connect USB devices to the appliance.
8	Voltage Output	Provides 12 Vdc or 24 Vdc (75mA) to a connected device.
8	Relay Output	Used for connecting relay-controlled external devices.

10	A-Link Ports	Used to cascade NetBotz Rack Sensor Pod 150s (NBPD0150), or connect Temperature/Humidity Sensors with Digital Display (AP9520TH). Provides communications and power using standard CAT-5 cabling with straight-through wiring. NOTE: To cascade multiple devices, connect a supplemental power supply (100-240 Vac/24 Vdc, part number AP9505i) to a NetBotz Rack Sensor Pod 150.
11	Modbus RS-485 port	Provides the connection to a building management system using the Modbus protocol.
12	Console Port	Used to connect the USB A-USB mini B configuration cable, when configuring initial network settings. NOTE: See knowledge base NetBotz 250 \| Configuring Network Settings for instructions on configuring the network settings (TCP/IP) and knowledge base NetBotz 250 \| Serial Connection (Driver + Serial Parameters) for instructions on installing the required FTDI VCP driver.
