GREEN indicates normal operating conditions;
AMBER indicates specific operating modes (for exam-
ple Day or Night mode), and/or Fault conditions;
RED indicates Alarm conditions.
Memory The Control panel will signal Fault events
(FAULT LED blinking) until the system Resets, even if
the event clears in the meantime.
Audible Signalling The Buzzer will signal the Control
panel status as follows:

Power Supply
The power supply system of the FC500 Control panels
complies with EN54-4.
All models are powered by the Mains (110/230 V~,
60/50 Hz):
Ø
the FC510 model has Switching Power Supply which
supplies up to 5.5 A at 27.6 V;
Ø
the FC520 model has Switching Power Supply which
supplies up to 5.5 A at 27.6 V;
All models can house two 12 V batteries which, when
connected in series, will supply 24 V to the Control pa
-
nel and peripherals in the event of black-out, and will
also provide any pickup currents which exceed the ma-
ximum current supplied by the Switching Power Supply.
The FC510 and FC520 model can house two 12V 17 Ah
batteries (YUASA NP 17-12 FR model or similar — flame
class UL94-V2 or higher).
+
If necessary, (Full configured Loop or for particular
requirements of the system) FC510 or FC520 con-
trol panel model can be connected to two 12V
38 Ah batteries in an external metal box (see Figu
-
re 16).
This Control panel can detect, signal and store in memory
the following power faults: shorted 24V or 24R outputs;
Low battery, Battery fault or Battery disconnected (Low
Battery LED and No Battery LED), Ground fault (Earth
LED) and Mains failure (Mains LED).
+
The “No Battery or Low Battery” fault may be si
-
gnalled with a delay up to 1 minute. The “Mains”
(Amber) fault will be signalled when the program
-
med delay expires.
