Description
The FA-300-6DDR-CG is a six zone conventional fire alarm control unit that is approved by the United States Coast Guard for indoor marine applications. The FA-300-6DDR-CG is equipped with six Class “B” (Style “B”) initiating circuits and two Class “B” (Style “Y”) notification circuits rated @ 1.7 Amps maximum. Optional Class A converter modules are available for both the initiating and notification appliance circuits. The control unit features a 40 character back-lit LCD display, numerical keypad, integrated UDACT/Digital Communicator and brackets to secure the internal batteries. The FA-300-6DDR-CG is configurable by the keypad for onsite programming or by a PC for both onsite and remote programming. The control unit is easy to install and simple to operate and configure, enabling the installer to configure the system to meet their specific requirements. The FA-300-6DDR-CG is also equipped with a 5 Amp power supply, 4-wire resettable smoke power supply (300mA max.), an interface for a Remote Trouble Indicator (RTI) and an RS-485 interface for remote LCD or LED annunciators and Remote Smart Relay modules. It comes complete with a red door, black enclosure, durable CAT-30 lock and key and space to mount up to 12 AH batteries. An optional trim ring is available for semi-flush mounting.

Adder Modules
ICAC-306 Six Initiating Circuit Class “A” Converter Module The ICAC-306 converts the six Class “B” (Style “B” initiating circuits on the FA-300-6DDR- CG main board to Class “A” (Style “D”) circuits. The ICAC-306 is equipped with wire leads to connect to the main board.
OCAC-302 Two Indicating Circuit Class “A” Converter Module The OCAC-302 converts the two Class “B” (Style “Y”) notification appliance circuits on the FA-300-6DDR-CG main board to Class “A” (Style “Z”) circuits. The OCAC-302 is equipped with wire leads to connect to the main board.
PR-300 Polarity Reversal/City Tie Module
The PR-300 provides outputs for city box and polarity reversal applications.
As a city tie module the PR-300 provides an interface between the control
panel indicating circuits and a master box. It provides off-premises signal
transmission for systems that must comply with NFPA requirements for Auxiliary
Protective Systems. As a polarity reversal module the PR-300 provides an
interface between the control panel and a reverse polarity receiver. It
provides off-premises signal transmission for systems that must comply with
NFPA requirements.
RM-306/RM-312 Relay Circuit Adder Modules
The RM-306 provides six configurable relay circuits, rated @ 28 VDC, 1 amp
(resistive). The RM-312 provides twelve Form C configurable relay circuits,
rated @ 28 VDC, 1 amp (resistive). On both models each circuit can be
configured as a Normally Open (N.O.) or Normally Closed (N.C.) contact. Each
relay is equipped with an LED that is lit when the relay is energized. The
relays can be configured as relay per zone (1 to 1), Common on Alarm, Common
on Supervisory or programmable for logical or adjacent zone configuration. An
adjacent zone configuration will turn on adjacent zone when configured zone is
active. A chaining configuration allows for multiple relays to turn on.

Remote Annunciators
RAM-300LCDR Remote LCD Annunciator
The RAM-300LCDR provides LCD remote annunciation through a 2 line by 20
character LCD display. The RAM-300LCDR provides control switches for System
Reset, Signal Silence, Fire Drill and Acknowledge as well as a numeric keypad
to access the menu functions. The common control functions can be disabled on
a per function basis. The RAM-300LCDR has LED indicators for A.C. On, Alarm,
Supervisory, Trouble and CPU Fail. The RAM-300LCDR comes complete with a red
enclosure and a CAT-30 Lock and key.
SRM-312R Smart Relay Module
The SRM-312 provides twelve configurable relay circuits, rated @ 28 VDC, 1 amp
(resistive). Each circuit can be configured as a Normally Open (N.O.) or
Normally Closed (N.C.) contact. Each relay is equipped with an LED that is lit
when the relay is energized. The relays can be configured as relay per zone (1
to 1), Common on Alarm, Common on Supervisory or programmable for a logical or
adjacent zone configuration. An adjacent zone configuration will turn on an
adjacent zone when the configured zone is active. A chaining configuration
allows for multiple relays to turn on. The SRM-312 is DIP switch configurable
and connects to the RS-485 bus. The SRM-312R come complete with a red
enclosure and a CAT-30 lock and key.
RAM-208R/RAM-216R Remote LED Annunciators The RAM-208R and RAM-216R provide 8 or 16 points respectively of LED annunciation. Both models feature bi-coloured LEDs which are auto-configurable for either Alarm (red) or Supervisory (amber). The LED annunciators have indicators for A.C. On, Common Trouble and Signal Silence and control switches for System Reset, Signal Silence, Lamp Test and Buzzer Silence. The RAM-208R and RAM-216R are equipped with a keyswitch which allows for enabling and disabling of the Common Control functions. Both models are available in a red finish and mount in a 4-gang electrical box.
RAM-1016TZDS Remote LED Annunciator
The RAM-1016TZDS Remote LED Annunciator provides sixteen points of LED
annunciation. The RAM-1016TZDS comes standard with bi-coloured LEDs which are
automatically configured for either Alarm (Red) or Supervisory (Amber) as well
individual trouble LEDS. The RAM-1016TZDS has indicators for A.C. On, Common
Trouble and Signal Silence and controls for System Reset, Lamp Test, Fire
Drill, Buzzer Silence and Signal Silence. In addition it allows for the
control switches to be disabled on a per function basis. The RAM-1016TZDS
mount in a BB-1001(R) enclosure.
RTI-1 Remote Trouble Indicator
Mircom’s Remote Trouble Indicator provides remote annunciation of fire alarm
troubles. The RTI-1 mounts onto a standard single gang electrical box.
