Why does my TECSYSTEM T-154 Temperature Controller display FCC on all sensors?
- HhubbardgregoryAug 13, 2025
If all sensors display FCC, the terminal block might be upside-down due to wrong wiring connections. Please, check the terminal block.

If all sensors display FCC, the terminal block might be upside-down due to wrong wiring connections. Please, check the terminal block.
What to do if my TECSYSTEM T-154 alarm and trip relays energize when switching the unit on-off?
If the alarm and trip relays energize when switching the unit on and off, strong electrical noise may be present on the power line. Try installing a transient suppressor (PT-73). Also, ensure the shield of the sensor cable is connected to the panel ground. Consider installing shielded cable (Mod. CT-ES) or twisting the sensor conductors.
What to do if one of the 3/4 channels of TECSYSTEM Temperature Controller is indicating fault and displaying FOC/FCC?
If one of the channels is indicating a fault and displaying FOC/FCC, check the sensor connections and look for any damaged sensors. If a sensor is damaged, replace it.
How to fix a TECSYSTEM Temperature Controller that suddenly activates the trip relay with normal operating temperature?
If the trip relay suddenly activates with a normal operating temperature, it could be due to a defective sensor (Fcd). Replace the sensor.
What to do if the temperature indicated by one or more channels of TECSYSTEM Temperature Controller is wrong?
If the temperature indicated by one or more channels is incorrect, the sensors may be defective. Check the sensor resistance with an Ohm meter. If the sensors are OK, return the unit for repair, as it may be calibrated incorrectly.
Why is channel 4 of my TECSYSTEM T-154 indicating fault and displaying FOC when only three Pt100 sensors are connected?
If channel 4 indicates a fault and displays FOC when only three Pt100 sensors are connected, it may be due to wrong programming of the unit. Please, repeat programming.
What to do if my TECSYSTEM T-154 with a control power source of 24 VDC switches off and will not switch back on?
If the unit switches off and won't switch back on with a 24 VDC control power source, check that the input voltage is between 20-24 VDC. Reconnect to a stable source of power. If the unit still does not respond, return it for repair.
How to troubleshoot a TECSYSTEM T-154 Temperature Controller that will not switch on, with control power energized?
If the unit does not switch on even with control power energized, check the terminal block for correct installation and verify the voltage at the terminal block.
