– PCC 2100
– PCC 3100
– PCC3200
– Detector or Competitor’s Genset

• Networking
– Adding this Switch to a PowerCommand Network

Program Name (16)

Annunciation with a PCC 2100

• Hard-wire the desired ATS signals to the

Programmable Inputs on the PCC 2100 control.
• Use InPower 4.0, or later, to configure the inputs
accordingly, and then follow the Self-install
Procedure to Auto-bind with the PowerCommand
Network Annunciator (This is covered in the
PowerCommand Network Installation and Operation
Manual, FT-10, P/N 0900-0529).
• Alternatively, use the CCM-T or DIM module to build
a PowerCommand Network including a Network
Annunciator.
Program Name (17)
Annunciation with a PCC 3100

• Hard-wire the desired ATS signals to the Discrete

Inputs on the 0300-4510 Annunciator.
• Alternatively, use the CCM-T Or DIM module to build
a PowerCommand Network including a Network
Annunciator.

Program Name (18)

Annunciation with a PCC 3200

• Hard-wire the Desired ATS signals to the Discrete

Inputs on the PCC 3200 Control.
• Use InPower 4.0, or later, to configure the inputs
accordingly, and then bind those inputs to the
Network Annunciator using LonMaker for Windows.
• Alternatively, use the CCM-T or DIM Module to build
a PowerCommand Network including a Network
Annunciator.

Program Name (19)

Annunciation With A Detector (Or Competitors Genset)

• Hard-wire the desired ATS signals to the Discrete

Inputs on the 0300-4510 Annunciator.

Program Name (20)

Networking Solution

• The GTEC can be integrated into a

PowerCommand Network by adding a CCM-T
or DIM module.
• Please refer to the PowerCommand Network
Installation and Operation Manual (FT-10) p/n
0900-0529 for detailed instructions on
installing the CCM-T and DIM modules on a
PowerCommand Network.
