Page 19: Introduction
The illustration shows a schematic overview of the components of a flashing system. The design plan shows the actual lay- out. A flashing system can contain up to 32 flashing heads. Every flashing system has one LMC. The LMC can be installed in an FCU-1 cabinet or in a FCU- 3 cabinet. UM-4018_AM02-620e, Rev. 3.0, 2020/05/12...
Page 22: Lmc
FCU-3: one cabinet with three FCUs for 3 flash units: three-phase power supply. It is possible to combine these two types of cabinets in one system. Then, FCU-1 cabinets must have a separate junction box (option) to connect to the three-phase power supply.
Page 23: Local Master Controller (Lmc) Description
The LMC is a PCB installed in the cabinet door of any equipment cabinet in the flashing system. It is recommended to install the LMC in an equipment that you can easily access for maintenance. UM-4018_AM02-620e, Rev. 3.0, 2020/05/12 Copyright ADB Safegate, All Rights Reserved ©...
Page 24: Options
A multiwire PCB has 2 times 12 terminals. The terminals handle the maximum 8 incoming and maximum 8 outgoing signals between the equipment and the remote control system. There is only one multiwire PCB possible per LMC, so also one multiwire PCB per flashing system. Copyright ADB Safegate, All Rights Reserved ©...
