BEFORE INSTALLING TERMINAL DEFINITIONS

This information is included as a quick reference installation guide. Refer to T1 (+) SLC in/out T7 (–) IDC Class A/B
the appropriate control panel installation manual for detailed system infor-
mation. If the modules will be installed in an existing operational system, T2 (–) SLC in/out T8 (+) IDC Class A/B
inform the operator and local authority that the system will be temporarily T3 (+) SLC in/out T9 (+) IDC Class A
out of service.
T4 (–) SLC in/out T10 (–) IDC Class A
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of this equipment.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION FIGURE 1. MONITOR MODULE:
Monitor Module, Model 55-041 is used to monitor the normally open contacts LED INDICATOR
of an auxiliary device. In addition to monitoring the contact, the device will
monitor the wiring to the device for open circuits via an end of line resistor.
This device is capable of Class A or Class B operation.
COMPATIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
To ensure proper operation, this module shall be connected to a listed compat-
ible control panel.
MOUNTING
The module mounts directly to 4-inch square electrical boxes. The box must
have a minimum depth of 21/8 inches. Modules must be mounted with the
arrow facing upward for proper operation of the IR programming tool. Sur-
face mounted electrical boxes (SMB500) are available from System Sensor.
(SMB500) are available from Fike.
WIRING
NOTE: All wiring must conform to applicable local codes, ordinances, and
regulations.
1. Install module wiring in accordance with the job drawings and appropri-
ate wiring diagrams.
2. For new installations use the enclosed 39 kΩ EOL resistor. For retrofit ap-
plications where the existing 47 kΩ cannot be easily replaced, it may be
left in place without loss of performance.
3. Set the address on the module per job drawings using the IR configura- IR RECEIVER
tion tool (model no. EA-CT). C102-00
4. Secure module to electrical box (supplied by installer).

NOTE: All references to power limited represent “Power Limited (Class 2)”.

FCC STATEMENT
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installa-
tion. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
