Specifications
14
Wired in from external power source.
Shares connector and Ground pin with AC / Main Fail.
Normally closed dry relay contacts are required.
Configured on host as an unsupervised input, as with iSTAR eX, iSTAR Pro.
Onboard Battery Low input
Internal measurement (no connections necessary) of onboard AA alkaline
batteries.
Active if their voltage is below 4.6 volts.
Active if they are not present or one or more of them is not making full
connection.
This informs user that they should replace the onboard backup batteries for
this controller as soon as possible.
The user does not need to power down the controller to remove/replace the
batteries
Configured on host as an unsupervised input. This is a new input not
present in iSTAR eX or iSTAR Pro.
PoE Present
Internal sensing of whether PoE module is attached.
Is visible to user in the Status Tab of the iSTAR Edge Controller editor in the
C•CURE 9000 Application program. The PoE module should only be
installed or removed when board is entirely powered off.
Power in
12 / 24 VDC
iSTAR Edge can run off either 12VDC or 24 VDC power applied to the PWR
connector. Normal operating ranges include:
12V operation: 10.2 V to 14.4 V (-15/+20%)
24V operation: 20.4 to 30.0 V (-15/+25%)
Configuration for either 12V or 24V operation is stored in flash. During boot up
the iSTAR Edge detects an input power voltage as either 12 or 24 VDC and
automatically sets operation accordingly.
The iSTAR Edge will not automatically re-adjust back from 24V to 12V. This is
because a measurement of 12V input power could indicate a 12V supply or a
24V supply with a very low battery. To set the board back to 12V from 24V,
manual intervention is required:
1. Remove external power from the iSTAR Edge.
2. Select position 9 on the rotary switch.
