ANSI/IEEE Three-wire touch-sensitive switch form

IEEE-library form of three-wire touch-sensitive switch: this representation distinguishes a separately supplied three-wire touch-switch interface.

In plain English

What does ANSI/IEEE Three-wire touch-sensitive switch form mean?

This reference locates three-wire touch-sensitive switch in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented touch switches family. This representation distinguishes a separately supplied three-wire touch-switch interface. The public library uses HPX11TS3 for its horizontal representation; this is a vendor block name, not an IEEE standards symbol number.

A simple example

Read the operating mechanism and the contact reference state together. Cross-reference every associated contact to the same device and show which movement, signal or reset changes its condition; the symbol alone does not establish the complete switching sequence.

What the drawings help you do

Identify power, return and output using the selected product connection information. Wire count is not an output-polarity or protocol specification. Identify power, return and output using the selected product connection information. Wire count is not an output-polarity or protocol specification. The linked functional counterpart explains the same operating role in its own drawing context; agreement of every detailed convention mark is not asserted.

Normally open / normally closed
The contact state in the normal condition defined for the drawing.
Terminal
An identified point where a conductor connects.
Signal
Electrical information passed between devices, rather than necessarily the main power supply.

How to read it

  • Identify power, return and output using the selected product connection information.
  • Wire count is not an output-polarity or protocol specification.

Information to show or reference

  • Identify the associated device, circuit or diagram boundary.
  • Identify power, return and output using the selected product connection information.
  • Cross-reference the equipment data, terminal mapping or operating-state legend needed to interpret the form.

A distinction that matters

Wire count is not an output-polarity or protocol specification.
