In some installations, the alarm output is used to activate or deactivate high voltage and/or high current circuitry (110 VAC lights, siren, etc.) which cannot be controlled directly by the QSP-660. The easiest method to address the above cases is to use a relay, which has the number and rating on its contacts sufficient for the alarm output. Shown below are two methods to control a high current or high voltage device using a relay with a single, normally open con

RS-232 REMOTE CONTROL INTERFACE The QSP-660 has a built in RS-232 serial interface that supports remote control of the QSP-660 through simple ASCII commands. These commands provide access to the front panel button operations just as the IR Remote Control does. The QSP-660 serial interface is fixed at 2400 baud, 8 bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. It uses the very simple command format: The command is 2 character or 2 character plus parameter and
