WARNING
All relay switch contacts are shipped in the standby state (open) state, but may have transferred to the activated (closed) state during
shipping. To ensure that the switch contacts are in their correct state, modules must be made to communicate with the panel before
connecting circuits controlled by the module.

Before Installing
This information is included as a quick reference installation
guide. Refer to the control panel installation manual for detailed
system information. If the modules will be installed in an existing
operational system, inform the operator and local authority that
the system will be temporarily out of service. Disconnect power
to the control panel before installing the modules.
2. Set the address on the module per job drawings.

Note: Some panels support extended addressing. In order to
set the module above address 99 on compatible systems, carefully remove the stop on the upper rotary switch with thumb
in the direction shown in Figure 1A.
3. Secure module to electrical box (supplied by installer), as
shown in Figure 2A.
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of this

equipment.
IMPORTANT: When using the FCM-1 for fire fighter telephone

applications, remove Jumper (J1) and discard. The Jumper is
located on the back under the product label as shown in Figure
1B.
General Description
FCM-1 Supervised Control Modules are intended for use in intelligent, two-wire systems, where the individual address of each
module is selected using the built-in rotary switches. This module
is used to switch an external power supply, which can be a DC
power supply or an audio amplifier (up to 80 VRMS), to notification appliances. It also supervises the wiring to the connected
loads and reports their status to the panel as NORMAL, OPEN, or
SHORT CIRCUIT. The FCM-1 has two pairs of output termination
points available for fault-tolerant wiring and a panel-controlled
LED indicator. This module can be used to replace a CMX-2 module that has been configured for supervised wiring operation.

Figure 2A. Module mounting with barrier:
Mounting
The FCM-1 mounts directly to 4 square electrical boxes (see
Figure 2A). The box must have a minimum depth of 21/8 . Surface
mounted electrical boxes (SMB500) are available.
Wiring
NOTE: All wiring must conform to applicable local codes, ordinances, and regulations. When using control modules
in nonpower limited applications, the CB500 Module
Barrier must be used to meet UL requirements for the
separation of power-limited and nonpower-limited terminals and wiring. The barrier must be inserted into a 4
x4 x21/8 junction box, and the control module must be
placed into the barrier and attached to the junction box
(Figure 2A). The power-limited wiring must be placed
into the isolated quadrant of the module barrier (Figure
2B).
1. Install module wiring in accordance with the job drawings and
appropriate wiring diagrams.
