INTRODUCTION
The FDCIO422 is used for the connection of up
to 2 inde pendent Cl ass A or 4 independent
Class B dry N/O configurable contacts. Input
lines can be supervised for op en, short and
ground fa ult conditions (depending on EOL
termination resistor and class configuration).
Inputs can be independently configured via the
fire control panel for alarm, trou ble, status or
supervisory zones.
The FDCIO422 has 4 programmable outputs
with 4 potential-free latching type form A relay
contacts for fire control installations.
Status indication per LED for each input and
output pl us 1 LED for general stat us of the
device. Power su pply via FDnet (supervised
power limited).
· Including 4 EOL devices (470 Ω)
· 3 separators to separate the power limited
wiring from the non-power limited.
Separators are delivered in 3 different sizes
for standard 411/16-inch box, 411/16-inch
extension ring and 5-inch box (RANDL).
CAUTION
High voltages may
occur on the terminals.
Always use a faceplate
and the separator(s).

CAUTION
This device is not intended for
applications in explosive environments.
Class A is equivalent to DCLA (Canada)
Class B is equivalent to DCLB (Canada)
For complete configuration and
commissioning of the FDCIO422 also refer
to the user documentation of your panel,
especially for the software tool used for
configuration.

PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS
Refer to Fi gure 3 to locate the opening on the
cage cover that allows access to the programming
holes which are on the FDCIO422 printed circuit
board.
To connect the FDCIO4 22 to the DPU or 8720
Programmer/Tes ter, insert t he plug from the
DPU/8720 cable provided with the
Programmer/Tester into the opening on the front
of the FDC IO422. Be sure to insert the locating
tab on the plug into the slot for the locating tab as
shown in Figure 3. Minimum Firmware revision of
the DPU must be 9.00.0004, for 8720 must be
5.02.0002.
NOTICE
To prevent potential damage to the DPU
(refer to manual P/N 315-033260) or to
the 8720 (refer to manual P/N 315033260FA) DO NOT connect a FDCIO422
to the DPU or 8720 until the cage is
removed from the carrier (Figure 2).

description of the P anel used.
WIRING
Refer to Figure 11. Refer to the appropriate wiring diagram and wire the addressable input/output module
accordingly.
Recommended wire size: 18 AWG minimum and 14 AWG maximum
Wire larger than 14 AWG can damage the connector.
(Refer to Figures 2 and 3). Follow the instructions in the DPU manual or 8720 manual to program the
FDCIO422 to the desired address. Record the device address on the label located on the front of the
module. The FDCIO422 can now be installed and wired to the system.

INPUT NOTES:
1. There can be any number of normally open dry contact switches.
2. The end of line device must be located at the last switch.
3. Do not wire a normally closed switch across the end of line device in a normally open wiring.
4. Multiple switches: for open wiring supervision only.

Power limite d wir ing
In compliance with NEC Article 760, all power
limited fire protective signaling conductors must be
separated a minimum of ¼ inch from all of the
following items located within an outlet box:
· Electric light
· Power
· Class 1 or non-power limited fire protective
signaling conductors
To meet the above requirements, the foll owing
guidelines must be observed when ins talling this
input/output module.
If non-power limited wiring is not used
within this outlet box, then these
guidelines do not apply. In that case, be
sure to follow standard wiring practices.
Wiring entering outlet box
All power limited wiring must enter the outlet box
separately from the electric l ight, power, class 1,
or non-power limited fire protection signaling
conductors. For the FDCIO422, wiring to the
terminal block for li ne and inputs must enter the
outlet box separately from the ter minals for
outputs.
For the output terminals, protection with a fuse is
recommended. Refer to Figures 6 and 9.
WIRING AT THE TERMINAL BLOCKS
Minimize the length of wire entering the
outlet box.
Figure 6 Power Limited Wiring
Separators
The separators must be used when the relay
contacts are connected to non-power limited lines.
Mount the correct separator in the box used
(411/16-inch box and 5-inch box). If an extension
ring is used in connection with a 411/16-inch
square box an additional separator has to be
mounted in the extension ring.
The separators create two compartments to
separate the wires as shown in Figure 5.
