FW811M MINI INPUT MONITOR MODULE

The FW811M Input Module is designed to be inserted into a single gang utility box next to the dry contact device that it is monitoring.

The FW811M input module monitors a single contact. The input line is monitored for open line faults and ground faults, and the contact must thus be wired with an end-of-line resistor. It is an intelligent addressable module and takes one address on the Signaling Line Circuit (SLC) or Data Communication Link (DCL) of the fire alarm control panel. The FW811M is a UL/ULC listed device according to UL864 and ULC-S527 for Fire Protective Signaling Systems for indoor use. The type of input event is configurable. A remote red LED indicator connected to the red & black wires is used to show the module’s status.

Alarm Causing: An alarm causing input will produce an ALARM event. The remote red LED will indicate the alarm condition by turning on steady. A return to the normal condition will be ignored and the remote LED indicator will remain latched in the red alarm condition until a reset command has been received.

Supervisory/Trouble/Monitor Causing: By changing the FW811M input module functions from its attribute interface on FACP, it can be configured to be a supervisory, trouble, or monitor signal, which will produce a SUPERVISORY, TROUBLE, or MONITOR event. The remote red LED will indicate the event condition by turning on steady. The supervisory and monitor are latched/non-latched selectable. A return to the normal condition will cause the event to disappear and the remote LED indicator will return to the normal condition if the supervisory/monitor is non-latched. A return to the normal condition will not cause the event to disappear and the device LED indicator will remain in event condition if the supervisory/monitor is latched. The trouble is non-latched.
