The FMR‑1000‑RCMD Remote Command Center is a
four-conductor LCD annunciator with system control
capability for use with FCP‑1000 Analog Addressable
Fire Panels. It shows the equivalent LEDs and LCD
display and includes a piezo sounder, navigation
buttons, and operation keys for drill, reset, silence,
and acknowledge. The navigation functions and the
acknowledge key are accessible without restriction—
even when wearing fireman gloves. The keys for reset,
silence or drill can be enabled and disabled by the
device key lock, or the key lock can be disabled to
provide full access to the the controls.

Functions

Display

The Remote Command Center uses an 80‑character
(4 lines X 20 characters) wide viewing-angle LCD
display. The display includes a long‑life LED backlight.
The backlight is controlled by the panel, or locally
turned on upon any key press and turned off after a
30 sec timeout without key press. Even when AC
power is lost, the LED backlight is still turned on if a
user is operating the keypad.

System Normal: When no alarms or troubles exist in
the system, the Power LED lights steadily, and no
other LEDs are lit. The LCD display shows two banner
lines, the system status line, and the date and time.
System Off‑normal: If any off‑normal condition exists,
the panel displays the number of off‑normal conditions
classified in groups. Groups include fire alarm, gas
alarm, supervisory, and trouble. The panel holds up to
255 events for each group at a time. Any restored
event is deleted from the list.

Piezo Sounder

The Remote Command Center has a piezo sounder
that provides audible indication of the system status.
In case of multiple activation, the system status with
highest priority is indicated.

Operation Keys

The Remote Command Center has four operation keys:
Acknowledge: The acknowledge key is accessible
without restriction. During an alarm, pressing the key
turns off the piezo sounder that is sounding on an
annunciator.
Drill: The Drill key can be enabled and disabled by the
device key lock. Drill operation is not available if any
fire alarm or supervisory conditions exist. Upon drill
operation, a Drill Start Report is logged into the

history and, if so programmed, the report is
transmitted to the central station. All unbypassed
NACs turn on and play the patterns programmed for
them. When the drill operation stops, all activated
NACs turn off and a Drill Stop Report is logged into
the history and, if so programmed, the report is
transmitted to the central station. A system reset is
automatically performed by stopping the drill so that
the panel and all field devices restore to their normal
operation.
Reset: The Reset key can be enabled and disabled by
the device key lock. When reset operation is initiated,
the piezo sounders and activated or silenced outputs
turn off; all alarm, supervisory, and troubles caused by
activation of SLC points are cleared; and then the
control panel tries to reset all points that are in
off‑normal status. Not all system trouble conditions
are affected by reset operation. Any input points
remaining off-normal are re-indicated after reset. Reset
operations are logged into the history and, if so
programmed, the control panel transmits a reset
report to the central station.
Silence: The silence key can be enabled and disabled
by the device key lock. When the silence operation is
initiated, the “Silenced" LED turns on, the panel goes
into a “Silenced” status, and the piezo sounders on all
keypads and annunciators turn off.

Installation/configuration notes

Mounting Considerations

The Remote Command Center, which incorporates a
built-in level, can be surface mounted in the supplied
back box or flush mounted using a 3‑gang electrical
box.

Wiring Considerations

Use four conductor, 18 AWG (ISO 0.75 mm2) or larger
wire to connect the Remote Command Center to the
Option Bus of the FACP. The total length of wire
connected to the Option Bus terminals must not
exceed 4000 ft (1219 m), regardless of the wire gauge
used. For detailed wire length calculations, see the
FPA‑1000 Installation and Operation Guide.
