Siemens PXC Controller Series Part-1
The PXC Compact Series operates on the Automation Level Network (ALN) or the Field Level Network (FLN).
When connected to the ALN, the PXC Compact uses a logical point firmware database to communicate directly with PXC
Modulars, MBCs, RBCs, MECs, SCUs, and other nodes on the network.
When connected to the MS/TP FLN, the PXC Compact operates as a third-party BACnet device.
When the PXC-16 or PXC-24 is connected to the P1 FLN, it operates as a P1 device.
1.No license is required when using the PXC Compact as an FLN device.
2.PXC Compact on P1 displays as a TEC with application range 3000-3899.
The PXC Compact is available with 16, 24, or 36 point terminations.
Selected PXC-24 and PXC-16 models provide an extended temperature range for the control of rooftop devices.
Optional hot-swappable HOA (Hand/Off/Auto) Modules for the PXC Compact Series enable output points to be manually
placed into HAND, ON/OFF, or AUTO control.
Compact Series Product Overview
The PXC Compact Series (Programmable Controller– Compact) is a high-performance Direct Digital Control (DDC) supervisory equipment
controller, which is an integral part of the APOGEE® Automation System.
The PXC Compact Series offers integrated I/O based on state-of-the-art TX-I/O™ Technology, which provides superior flexibility of point
and signal types, and makes it an optimal solution for Air Handling Unit (AHU) control. The PXC Compact operates stand- alone or
networked to perform complex control, monitoring, and energy management functions without relying on a higher-level processor.
The PXC Compact Series communicates with other field panels or workstations on a peer-to-peer Automation Level Network (ALN), or
on the Field Level Network (FLN), and supports the following communication options:(Ethernet/IP ALN,RS-485 P2)
The PXC Compact is available with 16, 24, or 36 point terminations. Selected models in the Compact Series provide the following
options:
Support for FLN devices.
An extended temperature range for the control of rooftop devices.
Support for Island Bus, which uses TX-I/O modules to expand the number of point terminations for high-speed loop control. For PXC- 36
only.

The Compact Series
In addition to building and system management functions, the Compact Series includes several styles of controllers that
flexibly meet application needs.
PXC-16
The PXC-16 provides control of 16 points, including 8 software-configurable universal points.
Point count includes: 3 Universal Input (UI), 5 Universal I/O (U), 2 Digital Input (DI), 3 Analog Output (AOV), and 3 Digital
Output (DO).
PXC-24
The PXC-24 provides control of 24 points, including 16 software-configurable universal points.
Point count includes: 3 Universal Input (UI), 9 Universal I/O (U), 4 Super Universal I/O (X), 3 Analog Output (AOV), 5 Digital
Output (DO).
PXC-36
The PXC-36 provides control of 36 local points, including 24 software-configurable universal points.
Point count includes: 18 Universal I/O (U), 6 Super Universal I/O (X), 4 Digital Input (DI), and 8 Digital Output (DO).
The PXC-36 offers the flexibility of expanding the total point count through a self-forming Island Bus. With the addition of a
TX-I/O Power Supply, up to four TX-I/O modules can be supported. For more information, see the TX-I/O Product Range
Technical Specification Sheet (149-476).
Ethernet or RS-485 ALN • Support for APOGEE P2 ALN through TCP/IP or RS-485
networks.
FLN Support ● The PXC-16 and PXC-24 “F” models with an FLN license
support up to 32 P1 FLN devices when the ALN is
connected to TCP/IP.
● The PXC-36 with an FLN license supports up to 96 P1 FLN
devices when the ALN is connected to
RS-485 or TCP/IP.
● A Wireless FLN may also be used to replace the
traditional P1 FLN cabling with wireless communication
links that form a wireless mesh network. Additional
hardware is required to implement the Wireless FLN.
P1 FLN Operation The PXC-16 and PXC-24 can be configured as a programmable
P1 FLN device. In the P1 FLN mode, the PXC Compact
functions as an equipment controller with customized
programming and default applications.
Available Options
Virtual AEM Support • The Virtual AEM license allows the PXC Compact to connect
an RS-485 APOGEE Automation Level Network or individual
field panels to a P2 Ethernet network without additional
hardware.
Extended Temperature
Operation
• PXC-24 "R" models support extended temperature
operation, allowing for rooftop installations.
Field Panel GO The PXC-36 supports Field Panel GO.
The Field Panel GO license provides a Web-based user
interface for your APOGEE® Building Automation System. It is
an ideal solution for small or remote facilities with field
panels on an Ethernet TCP/IP Automation Level Network
(ALN).

Extended Temperature Operation • PXC-24 "R" models support extended temperature operation, allowing for rooftop installations. Field Panel GO The PXC-36 supports Field Panel GO. The Field Panel GO license provides a Web-based user interface for your APOGEE® Building Automation System. It is an ideal solution for small or remote facilities with field panels on an Ethernet TCP/IP Automation Level Network (ALN). Available Options
