Installers will have to pass all wiring either through the rear of the mounting material, or fit spacers to the rear of the box, or cut a chase in the wall behind the cabinet. One design fault became immediately apparent upon inspection: the cabinet, when mounted in place, sits flat on the wall, leaving no space underneath to pass circuit cables from the side of the box into the rear entry holes. The bottom of the cabinet accommodates the 17.0Ahr standby rechargeable battery, with further room to locate either a second 17Ahr battery, or two (eight zone) zone expansion cards into prepunched holes. The cabinet is roomy inside with lots of rear entry holes for circuit wiring, a separate aperture for the mains supply cable, and another for the PSTN cables. In common with other grade 3 controls, it is a large, weighty box with no visible indications from the outside. The main control cabinet is a steel construction with a detachable front cover that slides up approximately 20mm to allow complete removal. The control panel comes with a manufacturer's guarantee of two years and carries the European CE mark for electrical conformality including all EMC standards. The remote control software, Honeywell Gold, is available to registered Honeywell users. The C variant includes the integral digital communicator to signal to ARCs,and for upload/downloading purposes via the Public Service Telephone Network (PSTN).Īs well as 'dial in' remote linking to the system via the on-board modem, the system architecture also offers remote control of the system using a PC, either locally connected via RS 232 link, or remotely through the separately available Ethernet module to connect to LANs and WANs, using the standard internet protocol, TCP/IP. It is part of a family of Honeywell equipment that comprises two larger control panels, with peripheral devices including remote setting keypads, proximity readers, zone expanders, intelligent power supplies and network modules. The Galaxy 48C is a sixteen zone control panel that is EN50131 compliant up to Grade 3, class 2. They’re well-known and respected – and it doesn’t hurt to have the Honeywell name attached in terms of client recognition, either. Most installers will be familiar with Honeywell’s Galaxy series of control panels. Building Boardroom Digital Construction Academy.Construction Business: Strategy, Risk and Regulations.
