To send a status or alarm information from Cerberus PACE Compact to Cerberus PRO, connect a relay output of the Cerberus PACE Compact system to an input of an FDCIO22x.

The connection can be supervised. If the FDCIO22x is not mounted in the Cerberus PACE Compact cabinet, the connection must be supervised for open and short circuit.

The output of the Cerberus PACE Compact must be one of the following relay outputs:

  • Digital audio matrix PC200x (fault relay)
  • Cerberus PACE PC100x relay output
  • 'Input/output module (digital, 16)' PCIO2002-A1
  • 'Output module (relay, 8)' PCO2002-A1
  • 'Output extension (relay, 8)' PCO2003-A1
  • A relay connected via an open collector output
  • See Wiring diagram for open collector logic control outputs connecting relays in Use logic control outputs.
NOTICE
Always use relay contact outputs to connect to an input of an FDCIO222x

It is prohibited to connect an “Open Collector” logic control output of the Cerberus PACE Compact system to an input of an FDCIO22x. This might lead to a malfunction of the Cerberus PACE Compact or Cerberus PRO system.
