The FCM-1-REL Releasing Control Module uses a redundant protocol; the module must be armed with a pair of signals in order to activate. It will then enter a 3-second window
awaiting a pair of confirmation signals. If no confirmation is
received, the module will automatically reset. It also supervises the wiring to the connected load and reports the status
to the panel as NORMAL, OPEN, or SHORT CIRCUIT. The
module has two pairs of output termination points available
for fault-tolerant wiring and a panel-controlled LED indicator.
The module may be connected to either one 24VDC solenoid
or up to two 12VDC solenoids (in series). To ensure proper
operation, this module shall be connected to a compatible
Notifier system control panel only (list available from Notifier).
In addition, please refer to Notifier Device Compatibility Document PN 15378 for the list of compatible solenoids.
