FIRE ALARM CONTROL UNITS
FA-1000 SERIES
Description
Mircom’s FA-1000 Series Microprocessor Based Fire Alarm Control Panels are
Multi-Zone units designed for maximum flexibility and easy installation and
operation. Fully configurable from the front panel using push buttons and DIP
switches, the FA-1000 Series enables the user to configure the system to meet
their specific requirements. With a large capacity of supervised Class A
(Style D) or Class B (Style B) Initiating Circuits and supervised Class A
(Style Z) or Class B (Style Y) Indicating Circuits, the FA-1000 Series is
designed to meet virtually all applications.
The FA-1000 Series consists of a Main Fire Alarm Chassis which houses and
controls all other modules. Additional modules may be installed to configure
the system to meet any requirements that the user may have. The FA-1000 Series
allows for additional Indicating Circuit, Initiating Circuit and Relay modules
to be added to the system. In addition it allows for optional modules such as
the UDACT300A Digital Communicator and the PR-300 Polarity Reversal/City Tie
Module.
Equipped with Configuration DIP Switches on the Main Display Module the
FA-1000 Series Fire Alarm Control Panels are configured through a combination
of DIP switch and button settings. Through this configuration method the user
can define the system as a Single Stage or Two Stage operation as well as
perform various functions such as a One Man Walk Test.
