Each output on the module is limited to 50mA and are powered by the main panel.
The first module is the PC5208 8 PGM output expansion board. As with all the PowerSeries alarm panels, the PGM outputs can be expanded using 2 different expansion boards. PGM outputs 1, 3, and 4 are all low-current that are limited to 50mA. PGM 2 is still the high-current output that is limited to 300mA.
Unlike the other panels in the PowerSeries that have 2 PGM outputs, the PC1864 comes with 4 on the panel. On the PC1864 DSC has also upgraded the number of PGM outputs that the panel comes with. If an alarm is triggered on any of the partitions, the entire system will go into alarm. When a partition is armed, the zones in that partition then become active. Each partition can then be armed and disarmed independently. Partitioning allows you to assign zones into a group called a partition. Whether you need to cover multiple buildings, offices, garages, or whatever the case may be the PC1864 can handle it. This gives the PC1864 a huge amount of flexibility. With the PowerSeries Power 1864 DSC has packed in the power to have up to 8 different partitions. And the WT4989 is a two-way keyfob that will give you the status of the alarm system. The WT5500 is a wireless alphanumeric LCD keypad. This module gives the PC1864 access to two-way wireless devices such as the WT5500 or the WT4989. Another option is to use a TR5164 wireless transceiver. However, you are limited on the placement of the wireless receiver to where you need to place a keypad which may not be an ideal location for a wireless receiver. This a very budget friendly option since you are getting 2 components in one. The RFK5564 is a programmable alphanumeric LCD keypad that has a 64 zone wireless receiver built into it. The Power 1864 is also capable of using up to 64 wireless zones. Whether that is because of the building or time or just not wanting to run the extra wire, DSC has you covered. Sometimes running wire to certain locations is not a viable option. With 7 of the PC5108 zone expansion modules you can bring the system up to its maximum of 64 hardwired zones. Using PC5108 boards, you can expand the number of hardwired zones 8 at a time. The PC1864 board has terminals for 8 zones out of the box.
This makes it suitable for large homes and even some commercial applications. The PC1864 has a little more expansion room in most aspects than the PC1616 or PC1832 panels.
The PowerSeries Power 1864 is the top of the line PowerSeries panel. Here is a DSC Power Series User Manual for this system.
