2xFC1863-A2 Integrated Control Panel

Product Manual

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 max. 10 line cards.
⚫ A FCI1802-A2 line card can accommodate up to 252 points.
⚫ 2xFC1863-A2 control panel shall be configuration by inter-connected two control
panel model FC1863-A2. The model 2xFC1863-A2 shall be functioned with 2 CPUs
in parallel for total addressed point connected up to 20 loops.
⚫ 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
 ⚫ Programming can be done either directly on controller or through computer.
⚫ 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

Fig.3 Installation size (in:mm)

FC18R needs to be placed in a clean, dry, flat place. The front and rear doors must be at least 610mm
away from surrounding objects to ensure the front and rear doors can open freely.

Note: Ensure positive and negative connections are properly in place, FC18-Bus is polarity sensitive.
Connect a 120Ω resistor as monitoring resistor. It must be connected to the end of the line. ( It can
be set by the two-digit Dip-switch on the main board, see “Dip-switch connection configuration” )
