1.0Introduction
1.1About this Manual
This installation and operation manual provides information on installing the FA-1000 Series
Fire Alarm Control Panel.
1.2About the FA-1000
Mircom's FA-1000 Fire Alarm Control Units provide a large capacity of supervised Class A or
B (Style D or B) initiating circuits and supervised Class A or B (Style Z or Y) indicating circuits.
All circuits are supervised for opens and ground faults, and indicating circuits are supervised
for shorts. Optional modules include additional initiating and indicating circuits, relay, and
polarity reversal and city tie. Flush or sur face mountable enclosures can be used fo r retrofits
and on new installations.
1.2.1 Overall Features:
•Basic unit has eight Class B (Style B) initiating circuits that may be configured as four
Class A (Style D) circuits. These are configurable as Alarm, Verified Alarm, Waterflow
Alarm, Sprinkler Alarm, Latching or Non-Latching Supervisory, or Trouble-Only circuits.
There are two LEDs per circuit: one for trouble (amber), and one for st atus (red/amber)
•Basic unit has four power limited Class A/B (Style Z/Y) indicating circuits with individual
trouble indicators. Each circuit can be configured as Audible (Silenceable) or Visual
(Non-Silenceable). Audibles may be configured as Steady, Temporal Code, California
Code, or March Time
•Initiating and indicating circuits may be individually disconnected by a DIP switch (slide
switch on "S" Versions for the U.S.A. market only)
•Configurable Signal Silence Inhibit, Auto Signal Silence, Two-Stage Operation, One-
Man Walk Test
For Canadian installations, disable Auto Signal Silence.
•Subsequent Alarm, Supervisory, and Trouble operation
•Two outputs for four-wire resettable smoke power supply (200 mA each max., 300 mA
total max.)
•Auxiliary relay cont act s for Common Alarm and Common Supervisory (disconnect able),
and a Common Trouble relay
•RS-485 interface for RA-1000 Series Remote Multiplex Annunciators
•Optional modules for additional initiating, indicating, and relay circuits, and city tie and
polarity reversal signalling
•Easy configuration via pushbuttons and switches
•Extensive transient protection
•Surface mountable enclosures, flush trims available
Introduction
1.2.2 Controls and Indicators
Eight pushbuttons, 16 common indicators, provision for up to 24 points (expansion chassis
adds provision for up to another 48 points).

RM-1008A
Eight detection circuit modules (total of 64
initiating circuits in a system).
Four signal circuit modules (total of 24 initiating
circuits in a system).
Eight relay circuit modules (total of 32 relay
circuits in a system).
Notes: Any FA-1000 System may have a PR-300 or UDACT-300A and up to eight (8)

To install the main chassis
1. Install the main chassis in the BB-1024 backbox as shown in Figure 4 below, using the
supplied hex-nuts.
2. Group the incoming wires through the top of the enclosure to prep are them for wir ing the
modules. Do not run the wires in-between the modules since this could cause a short
circuit.
3. Use a wire tie to group wires for easy identification and neatness.
4. Be sure to connect a solid earth ground (from building system ground / to a cold water
pipe) to the chassis earth ground mounting lug, and to connect the earth ground wire
lugs from the main chassis to the ground screw on the backbox.

Module Mounting Locations
!
4.0Module Mounting Locations
The main chassis in a BB-1024 or BB-1072 enclosure comes pre-assembled with all power
supply, main panel, and display components and boards. The expander chassis is equipped
with a pre-assembled display board. The PR-300 City Tie Module or the UDACT-300A Digital
Communicator may be added on the left side, as shown in Figure 8 on page 24. These
modules connect directly to the dedicated P2 connection in the upper-left corner of the main
fire alarm module.
Attention: There needs to be enough display points for each circuit on an adder
module. These display points are assigned during configuration
(See System Configuration on page 60.) in the order in which the adder
modules are electrically installed (the order in which they have their
cables connected to each other). Both the number of points available
for each display type and the number of points required for each circuit
adder module type are described in 5.0 Module Settings on page 25.
As good practice, it is recommended that circuit adder modules are
installed in the order of detection modules (DM-1008A) followed by
signal modules (SGM-1004A), followed by relay modules (RM-1008A).
To enable communication from the main fire alarm module to all of the
circuit adder modules, it is necessary to remove the continuity jumper
on JW6 (near P5, the circuit adder module connector) on the main fire
alarm module. This jumper plug must be installed on the continuity
jumper on the last installed circuit adder module. To verify the location
of the continuity jumper on a particular circuit adder module see 5.0
Module Settings on page 25
Note: Only the last circuit adder module should have a jumper plug on
its continuity jumper - all others must be left without a jumper plug.

To Install Circuit adder modules
1. Install circuit adder modules from right to left using the supplied stand-offs (Figure 8 on
page 24).
2. Plug the first module with its 26-pin ribbon cable into P5 on the main fire alarm module
using the included MD-579 four-wire power cable (as described in 5.0 Module
Settings on page 25).
3. You can connect a second circuit adder module by plugging its 26 pin cable into the
matching socket on the module to its right, and by installing the supplied MD-579 fourwire power cable (as described in 5.0 Module Settings on page 25).

4.2BB-1072 Expansion Chassis Mounting Locations
The BB-1072 enclosure with an ECH-1048 expander chassis is equipped with two long
extension cables: one for the 26-pin ribbon cable (MD-575) and one for the four-wire power
cable (MD-580). Circuit adder modules are installed from right to left in two tiers (back then
front). These circuit adder modules are cabled in the same way as the main chassis, except
that the first module on the back tier to the right connects (via the MD-575 and MD-580
extension cables) to the second module in the main chassis. The fourth module on the front
tier to the right connects (via MD-575 and MD-580 extension cables) to the third module on the
first tier to the left. In other words, follow a continuous right to left, bottom to top, and back to
front installation order (see Figure 7).
Notes: Front plate is not shown. Other circuit adder modules may be:
• DM-1008A Detection Circuit Module
• SGM-1004A Signal Circuit Module
• RM-1008A Relay Circuit Module
