User manual in brief
Sensor controls and wiring
The MS-2 microwave sensor triggers message playback on a Mackenzie message repeater by a contact output. It is powered from the 12 VDC supply of the unit it triggers.
- On the sensor, a status LED and a sensitivity adjustment.
- Red wire: 12 VDC. Black wire: common. Both connect at the unit’s 12 VDC power connector, together with the power source.
- Blue wire: trigger from the sensor, to a start or play input of the unit.
Wiring to a MiniMac
- The blue trigger wire goes to the PLAY terminal of the MiniMac’s control connector.
- When the sensor triggers, the MiniMac plays the currently selected message.
Wiring to a MacFi
- The blue trigger wire goes to position 2, START 1, of the MacFi’s Connector 1.
- When the sensor triggers, the MacFi plays message 1. To trigger a different message, move the blue wire to the corresponding START input.
