HotSpot-Z — Temperature Alarm
SmartFan HotSpot-Z is a compact, multiple-
output temperature alarm. Trigger tempera-
ture is adjustable by means of a jumper on
the circuit board. Normally open or normally
closed outputs can drive a logic circuit, LED or
piezo alarm. Alarms are referenced to ground.
An additional normally closed optically isolated
output is provided. HotSpot-Z is compatible
with temperature sensors P1 through P9 shown
on page 34.

Wide input voltage range of 5.0 to 25.0 VDC
Selectable alarm trigger temperature of 45°, 50°, or
55°C (86°, 92° or 98°C when P3 sensor is used)
Normally open and normally closed outputs provide
nominal 8 mA to an LED connected between the
output and L. They can sink at least 4 mA at 0.4 VDC
to drive a logic circuit. A piezo alarm would be
connected between NO and +. Outputs are
referenced to ground
Optically isolated output sinks at least 1 mA at 0.4 volts
Optional isolated MOS relay alarm output for high
current or high voltage applications
Normally Closed (E,C) Alarm Output: Optically
isolated to drive logic circuits. Closed and can
sink at least 1.0 mA at 0.4 volts below trigger
temperature. Open above trigger temperature
and will accept up to 30 VDC.
Normally Closed (NC) Alarm Output: Closed
below trigger temperature and will sink 4 mA at
0.4 volts or less. Open above trigger temperature
and will accept up to 30 VDC. Applies nominal 8
mA to an LED connected from NC to L.
Normally Open (NO) Alarm Output: Open below
trigger temperature and will accept up to 30
VDC. Closed above trigger temperature and will
sink 4 mA at 0.4 volts or less. Applies nominal 8
mA to an LED connected from NO to L. Applies
nominal power supply voltage to a piezo alarm
connected from NO to +.

HotSpot-Z Installation & Operation
INSTALLATION
Power-In Connections (J3)
Connect the power supply between pins - and +
on header J3 using any voltage between 5 and
25 VDC. Power supply current is 10 mA maximum
at 12 VDC plus an additional 8 mA for an LED
if used.
Sensor Connection (J2)
Sensors are shown on page 34. There is no polarity
consideration when connecting the sensor.

OPERATION
Setting
Trigger Temperature (J1): Use this jumper to
set the trigger temperature to 45°, 50°, or 55°C.
Factory setting is 50°C. If the P3 sensor is used,
trigger temperature settings are 86°, 92°, and
98°C.
Alarm Outputs (J3)
Normally Closed, Isolated Output: This output
is intended for connection to a logic circuit. An
optically isolated NPN transistor is connected to
pins J3:E (emitter) and J3:C (collector). The out-
put is closed and can sink at least 1.0 mA at 0.4
VDC for temperatures below the trigger temper-
ature. Above the trigger temperature, the tran-
sistor is open and up to 30 VDC can be applied.
Non-isolated Outputs: The NO and NC outputs
can be used to provide a logic gate or LED alarm
indication.
For logic circuit alarm indication, each alarm
output can sink up to 4 mA at <= 0.4 VDC. When
open, a maximum of 30 VDC can be applied to
each output. Power for an LED alarm indication
is provided by Pin J3:L via an internal 12 mA DC
constant current source. An LED connected
between NO (normally open) and L will light
above trigger temperature. An LED connected
between NC (normally closed) and L will light
below trigger temperature. A piezo alarm would
normally be connected between NO and +.
Above trigger temperature, the supply voltage
is applied to the piezo alarm.
Note: L is positive (+); NC and NO are negative (-).
