The FRM-1 Addressable Relay Module offers a dry-contact output to trigger a range of auxiliary devices like fans, dampers, and control systems. Its addressable nature allows for selective activation of the dry contact, either manually or via panel programming. FlashScan®, a communication protocol patented under U.S. Patent 5,539,389 by NOTIFIER Engineering, significantly boosts communication speeds among analog intelligent devices. These devices communicate as a group, and if any device has new information, the control panel CPU prioritizes that device. This results in a response speed that is more than five times faster than traditional methods.
Features
- Automatic type identification for seamless device recognition by the control panel.
- Powered by the two-wire SLC loop, with internal circuitry and relay; the FCM-1(A) module requires additional power for horns, strobes, etc., or audio for speakers.
- An integral LED blinks green for each communication received from the control panel and turns steady red upon activation.
- Option to globally deselect the LED blink feature, affecting all devices.
- Equipped with high noise immunity to EMF/RFI.
- The FCM-1(A) is capable of switching 24-volt NAC power and audio (up to 70.7 Vrms).
- Features a wide viewing angle for the LED.
- Includes SEMS screws with clamping plates for simplified wiring.
- Allows direct-dial entry for addresses 01–159 in FlashScan loops and 01–99 in CLIP mode loops.
-
Supports wiring for Class B or A (Style Y or Z) for speakers, and audible/visual applications.
