Testing with iSTAR PRO Hardware With no switches or resistors connected to the supervised input 1 and 2 lines, the C• CURE 800/8000 Monitoring Program should report inputs as “Open Loop”. When you connect the 1,000-ohm resistor to the input terminals, the C• CURE 800/8000 Monitoring Program should report that the input as “Deactivated”. Supervised inputs #1 is found at pins 4 and 5 of P5. Supervised input #2 is found at pins 6 and 7 of P5. 5. Check the outputs.
