Channel Switching  
     Any unselected input to either single output based upon external closure or serial signal
     Two Remote Closure Inputs:
          15 pin female D-Sub (DB15F) shielded
          Activation on closure to ground (Active Low) or on closure open from ground (Active High)
          Active Low or Active High switching mode user selectable
          Switching command delay user selectable (High Speed: < 10 µsec, Low Speed: > 50 msec)
     One Serial I/O Input:
          9 pin female D-Sub (DB9F) shielded, RS-422
          Consult factory for current protocols
   
Alarm and Status Outputs  
     9 pin female D-Sub (DB9F) shielded
     Individual closures indicative of Unit Fail, Channel to Protect 1 and Channel to Protect 2
     All closures are normally open closures between isolated pins
