2-Door Controller CT-V900-A

The CT-V900-A is at the heart of every Centaur access control system. The Centaur Server, hardware expansion modules, multi-purpose inputs, card readers, keypads and outputs are connected directly to the CT-V900-A. Multi-controller systems are networked via the RS-485 communication bus (or using the optional CA-ETHER-A over a TCP/IP network). Distributed database architecture allows each controller to make split-second decisions without the need for the Centaur server. Lightning-quick, robust and remarkable stability make the CT-V900-A the professional’s choice.

Elevator Controller CA-A480-A

Connected to the CT-V900-A controller’s expansion bus, each CA-A480-A can control up to 16 floors. The CA-A480-A floor control relays can be interfaced directly with an elevator’s floor control buttons. When a valid card is presented, the appropriate floor control relays will become enabled allowing the cardholder to select the desired floor. Destination Controlled Mode, which requires a CA-A482-P Destination Reporting Module, offers far superior event trail and user accountability. In addition to these advanced floor and elevator control features, the CA-A480-A also features full supervision, backup battery and a fire alarm input.

 

Features:

• 16 on-board floor control relays

• Fire control input

• Control up to 64 floors and 2 elevator cabs

• Destination reporting (requires CA-A482-P Destination Reporting Module)

• Connects directly to the RS-485 E-BUS

• Backup battery with selectable battery charge current

• Individual schedules per floor with on-board 12Vdc power supply

• Fully supervised with comprehensive LED display

Input Specifications

• Fire alarm: 1

• Tamper: 1

Output Specifications

• Relay outputs: 16 form C relays rated at 20A/16Vdc, N.C./N.O
