Mechanical Controller for two-way status monitoring

Category: Command & Control

Federal Controller, model FCTB, is a two-way siren control and status monitoring system. The FCTB will control and monitor any electro-mechanical siren which can be controlled by a contact closure and is used in conjunction with the SS2000 encoder located at a central control point. The FCTB will automatically report back to the SS2000 any change in state of the AC, Low Battery, and Intrusion.

Programming:
The FCTB is field programmable through an RS232 port. This allows the user to change activation code formats and signal timing. The programming is accomplished by use of the Federal Controller Programming Software (model SFCWIN) purchased separately.
The Digital FCTB series are programmable over the air and includes a "digipeat" system feature that automatically seeks and recalls the best means of transmitting data to the central control by using the siren sites as radio repeaters. This feature can greatly reduce the costs of RF infrastructure required for the system.

Features

Dynamic Zoning capability allows the operator to assign sirens to specific zones and change zone grouping without visiting siren sites.
All data stored in non-volatile E2 memory.
Digital Encryption of Activation and status signals provides high level of security for transmission and monitoring.
MSK radio modem ensures valid decoding under adverse radio conditions.

Options

The FCTB is an ideal choice for upgrading or retrofitting one-way controls to two-way status monitoring for any existing electro-mechnaical sirens.
