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 opera-
tor and local authority that the system will be temporarily out of service.
Dis-connect power to the control panel before installing the modules.
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of this equipment.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION The MIX-M500RAPA Relay Control Module is intended for use
in intelligent, two-wire systems, where the individual address of each module
is selected using the built-in rotary decade switches. It allows a compatible
control panel to switch discrete contacts by code command. The relay contains
two iso-lated sets of Form-C contacts, which operate as a DPDT switch and are
rated in accordance with the table in the manual. Circuit connections to the
relay contacts are not supervised by the module. The module also has a panel
controlled LED indicator.
COMPATIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
To ensure proper operation, these modules shall be connected to listed com- patible system control panels only.
MOUNTING
The MIX-M500RAPA mounts directly to 4˝ square electrical boxes (see Fig-ure 2A). The box must have a minimum depth of 21/8˝. Surface mounted elec-trical boxes (SMB500) are available from Mircom.
WIRING
NOTE: All wiring must conform to applicable local codes, ordinances, and regulations. When using control modules in nonpower limited applications, the Mircom 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 (Fig- ure 2A). The power-limited wiring must be placed into the isolated quadrant of the module barrier (Figure 2B).
- Install module wiring in accordance with the job draw ings and appropriate wiring diagrams.
- Set the address on the module per job drawings.
- Secure module to electrical box (supplied by installer), as shown in Figure 2A.

Warning
All relay switch contacts are shipped in the standby (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.
