− FC1863 controller with 6 line card, max. 1512 points

Characteristic

⚫ Multi-language operation menu with windows style, easy and fast operation.
⚫ Shortcut key (right key) for popping out operation items of device/event.
⚫ Large memory space for up to 10000 history records, first in first out order, all events
can be recorded during the operation period.
⚫ LCD backlight Auto-off mode. When no operation or event to display within preset
time, LCD backlight will be automatically turn off. When there are events / operations,
LCD will light up automatically to display events and/or interlocking devices.
⚫ 2 channels of programmable input/output (output: 40mA@24VDC, it can be pro-
grammed as general alarm output or general trouble output; input: dry contact).
⚫ 1 channel of NAC for audible and visible device (0.5A@24VDC).
⚫ 8 channels of interlocking function (output: 40mA @ 24VDC ) for automatic control
and manual operations of control equipments.
⚫ Efficient group programming according to different using.
⚫ A FC186x controller can connect up to 2016 points by adding line card.
⚫ Network bus (FC18-BUS), the max. distance is 1000m (the twist wiring capacity is
1.0 to 1.5 mm2 ). Up to 32 controllers can be networked.
⚫ FRT bus (FR18-BUS), the max. distance is 1000m (the twist wiring capacity is 1.0 to
1.5 mm2 ). Up to 32 floor repeater displays can be networked.
⚫ Detection bus (FD18-BUS), 2-wire polarity-free, the max. loop distance is 2500m, the
max. stub distance is 1500m. (the twist wiring capacity is 1.0 to 1.5 mm2 )
⚫ Three user levels for different operation authority. Each user level is accessed by a
pre-defined and changeable password.
⚫ Convenient pluggable terminals with clear marks for field wiring.

Smart Infrastructure
 ⚫ Auto-mapping function to support on commissioning task.
⚫ Detection algorithm can be adjusted by controller according to environment, to pro-
vide high reliability of alarm and reduce false alarm.
⚫ Programming can be done either directly on controller or through computer.
⚫ “Sticker Method” easy for commissioning on site.

Installation

Installation must comply with the local regulation!

Procedure:
1. Ensure the wall is dry, clean, flat and firm in which the controller is installed.
2. Chose a proper installation location to make sure the front door can be opened smoothly.
3. Mark the drillings for 4 installation holes on the wall. (Fig. 3)
4. Drill the holes, put expansion bolts in and insert the M6 screws.
5. Break the cable entries on the controller.
6. Hang the controller over those screws.
7. Insert cables into the controller.
8. Open the front panel and tighten the screws to fix the controller on the wall.
9. Connect cables to the terminals according to Fig. 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.
10. Install and secure the batteries properly.
11. Close the front panel. Lock it with special tools and store the tools in safe place.
