FX10 Advanced Control Overview
The Johnson Controls FX10 board is specifically designed
for commercial heat pumps and provides control of the
entire unit as well as input ports for Open N2, LonTalk,
BACnet (MS/TP @ 19,200 Baud rate) communication
protocols as well as an input port for a user interface. The
user interface is an accessory item that can be used to aid
in diagnostics and unit setup. A 16-pin low voltage terminal
board provides terminals for common field connections.
The FX10 Control provides:
Operational sequencing
High and low-pressure switch monitoring
General lockout
Freeze Detection
Condensate overflow sensing
Lockout mode control
Emergency shutdown mode
Random start and short cycle protection
Short Cycle Protection
Allows a minimum compressor “off” time of four minutes
and a minimum “on” time of two minutes.
Random Start
A delay of 1 to 120 seconds is generated
after each power-up to prevent simultaneous startup of all
units within a building after the release from an unoccu-
pied cycle or power loss.
Emergency Shutdown
A field-applied dry contact can be used to place the con-
trol into emergency shutdown mode. During this mode, all
outputs on the board are disabled.
Freeze Detection
Field selectable for 15° or 30°F (-9° or -1°C)
Installation Options
Standalone controlled by standard room thermostat
Standalone with a Zone Temperature Sensor (must
have user interface to change set points beyond the
allowed +/- 5°F)
Integrated into BAS by adding communication module
Accessory Outputs
Quantity 2. One cycled with blower, other with compressor.
User Interface
4 x 20 backlit LCD.
Optional Plug-in Communication Modules -
(compatible with standard BAS protocols)
Open N2
LonTalk
BACnet (MS/TP @ 19,200 Baud rate)
Display
Requires DLI Card/Kit. Up to 2 displays, either 1 local and
1 remote, or 2 remote. (A 2-display configuration requires
identical displays.) Local display can be up to 3 meters
from the controller, power supply, and data communica-
tion. Remote display can be up to 300 meters from the
controller. Remote display must be independently powered
with data communication done via 3 pole shielded cable.
