Electric Fish Barrier and Guidance Systems
Fish Barrier Telemetry & Control System
Smith-Root fish barrier installations are monitored and controlled by the Fish Barrier Telemetry & Control System (FBTCS). The FBTCS is an advanced graphical interface computer application that provides the following features:
- 24x7 Barrier site monitoring
- Complete remote control and monitoring via network or modem
- Pulser output waveform control
- Pulser and relay control based on current water level
- Automatic detection of all Smith-Root devices connected to the network
- Alarm condition monitoring and email alarm reports
- Event logging with search and filtering
- Building security monitoring and control
FBTCS Barrier Manager main screen. This screen gives an overall view of the barrier status including connected devices and any alarm conditions.
Pulser Waveform Control
Pulser output waveforms can be custom programmed directly from the main screen. Individual pulsers can also be turned on or off.
Device Setup
The FBTCS will detect connected supported devices automatically using the Auto Scan feature. Devices like Level Sensors can be manually added to the system using the Device Configuration screen.
Level Sensor Setup
Level sensors allow the FBTCS to change output waveforms based on the current water level. Waveform selection and level zones can be configured on the Level Sensor screen.

Timer Setup
The FBTCS can be programmed to perform various operations (i.e. send a status report, change the output waveform, or even turn the barrier output on or off) at timed intervals.
