MS-FAC2612-1 Johnson Controls Advanced Application Field Equipment Controller (FAC)
Advanced Application Field Equipment Controller (FAC) The Advanced Application Field Equipment Controller (FAC) Series Controllers are programmable controllers that can communicate using BACnet® Secure Connect (BACnet/SC), BACnet/IP, MS/TP, or N2 communications protocols, depending on the model. The FAC4911 is a BACnet Advanced Application Controller (B-AAC) that communicates using BACnet/IP or BACnet/SC communications protocol. All other FAC Series controllers, except the FAC4911, can be switched between MS/TP and N2 communication protocols. FAC controllers used as MS/TP devices are B-AACs with integral RS-485 MS/TP communication.
FAC Series Controllers feature an integral realtime clock. FACs support time-based tasks and maintain time-based control, which enables these field controllers to monitor and control schedules, calendars, alarms, and trends. FACs can continue time-based control and monitoring when offline for extended periods of time from a Metasys system network.
FAC Series Controllers can also operate as standalone controllers in applications that do not require a networked supervisory device or for network applications where it is preferred to have the scheduling, alarming, and/or trending performed locally in the field controllers.
Features
⇒ Standard BACnet Protocol
Provides interoperability with other Building Automation System (BAS) products that use the widely accepted BACnet standard.
⇒ Switchable Communications Protocols
Provides flexibility with a choice between BACnet MS/TP and N2 communication.
⇒ Model to support BACnet/SC and BACnet/IP communications
FAC4911 controllers provide higher speed communication with the Controller Configuration Tool (CCT) and improved bandwidth. BACnet/SC is a new protocol that provides a secure method of communication on IP networks. It uses standards widely accepted by the IT community, eliminating many of the IT community’s concerns.
⇒ Standard Hardware and Software Platform
Uses a common hardware design throughout the family line to support standardized wiring practices and installation workflows; also uses a common software design to support use of a single tool for control applications, commissioning, and troubleshooting to minimize technical training.
⇒ Wireless ZFR and ZFR Pro support
Wireless ZFR and ZFR Pro support provides a wireless alternative to hard-wired MS/TP networking, offering application flexibility and mobility with minimal disruption to building occupants, and also simplifies and speeds up replacements.
⇒ Auto-Tuned Control Loops
Proportional Adaptive Control (P-Adaptive) and Pattern Recognition Adaptive Control (PRAC) deliver continuous control loop tuning, which reduces commissioning time, eliminates change-of-season recommissioning, and reduces wear and tear on actuators.
⇒ Integral real-time clock
Controllers use an integral real-time clock to monitor and control schedules, calendars, and trends, and operate for extended periods of time as stand-alone controllers when offline from the Metasys system network.
⇒ Universal Inputs and Configurable Outputs
Allows multiple signal options to provide input/ output flexibility.
⇒ BACnet Testing Laboratories (BTL) Listed and Certified
Ensures interoperability with other BTL-listed devices. BTL is a third-party agency, which validates that BAS vendor products meet the BACnet industrystandard protocol.
⇒ BACnet Automatic Discovery
Supports easy controller integration into a Metasys BAS.
⇒ End-of-Line (EOL) Switch in MS/TP Field Controllers
Enables field controllers to be terminating devices on the communications bus.
⇒ Pluggable Communications Bus and Supply Power Terminal Blocks
Expedites installation and troubleshooting.
⇒ Writable Flash Memory
Allows standard or customized applications to be downloaded from the CCT and enables persistent application data.
⇒ Local Controller Display and the MAP Gateway Support
Enable monitoring and commanding of I/O and configuration parameters
