ICS-6-SP Fail-safe Laser Interlock Controller 

 
The ICS-6-SP Control Unit is a versatile interlock system and there are a variety of ways in which it 
can be used. Be sure you know which configuration you require before you attempt to wire the unit. 
If you require further assistance, please call Lasermet technical help. Contact details are at the end 
of this manual. 
 
A 2.5mm slotted screwdriver will be needed to access the screw terminals. 
 
 

6.1  Power In 

 
The ICS-6-SP requires 24VDC power. The power supply should be able to provide at least 1A for the 
unit, plus any other equipment that may be run off the same supply such as 24V illuminated signs, 
magnetic door locks (maglocks) etc. 
 
Connect  the  power  supply  to  terminal  block  ‘24VDC  Power’  on  the  ICS-6-SP.  Three  terminals  are 
provided for +24V, any one of which may be used for the incoming power. The others are available 
for feeding the touch panel and 24V equipment such as illuminated signs and maglocks. The same 
applies for the 0V terminals.

 

 
 

6.2  ICS-6-SP Inputs 

 

Mechanical Interlock Switches 

 
Up  to  four  door  interlock  switches  may  be  directly  wired  to  the  ICS-6-SP.  By  making  external 
connections, more switches can be added and arranged in groups for indication purposes. 
 
The interlock switches are wired to the terminals labelled Input 1 through to Input 4. Each interlock 
switch  should  have  two  safety  contacts  which  are  closed  when  the  door  is  closed.  Some  door 
contacts  such  as  Lasermet’s  IS-MECH  switches  have  an  additional  monitor  contact  which  closes 
when the door is opened. This is not used in ICS-6-SP.
