General Description
The TLC3-FCR-M is a stand-alone electronic fan coil controller with one control loop. The TLC3-FCR-M2 is designed for
2-pipe modulating fan coil systems and features 1 NTC temperature sensor input, one external passive input for
temperature or open contact, three binary outputs (Relays) and one analog output (0-10VDC).
The TLC3-FCR-M4 is designed for 4-pipe modulating fan coil systems and features 1 NTC temperature sensor input,
three binary outputs (Relays) and two analog outputs (0-10VDC) for heating and cooling.
A detailed parameterization is possible with the use of a simple configuration routine. The TLC3-FCR-M can be
configured using the standard operation terminal. No special tools or software is required.

Selection of fans
Do not directly connect devices that exceed 2A. Observe startup current on inductive loads! Do not connect more than
one fan coil unit to one controller.
Modulating Actuators:
Choose actuators with an input signal type of 0-10V DC or 2-10V DC. Observe maximal signal current of 1mA!
