FMIC Overview
The FMIC comprises a wall-mounted red steel case with a glazed door that contains a close-talking
noise-cancelling fist microphone plus ancillary electronics.
It is designed to be used with SigNET's Integrity voice alarm system and is fully monitored for faults. The
internal electronics comprise two parts, a 1ZPR pre-amplifier and monitoring unit and an FMX fault
monitoring expansion and message control unit.
Up to four FMICs may be connected in a daisy-chain format to one voice alarm input.
When used with the Integrity VA system, it is connected to a one 1LS card and, in most applications, is
required to operate as an all-call microphone, even in case of microprocessor failure. In this case, the
1LS card must be installed in slot 1 of the Integrity mainframe.
The microphone is designed for use in noisy environments and incorporates a lip-guide to help the user
position the microphone close, but not too close, to his mouth.

The FMIC is normally connected to the mainframe via two four-core 1.5mm
`fire-rated cables although in
non-life-safety applications, Cat 5 cable may be used.
The front door is normally secured by a cam lock and key, but a 'T-bar' handle may be specified if
required.

- Page 2 Cables The FMIC is designed to use two four-core fire-rated cables that enter the case via two 20 mm knock- outs in the top or bottom of the case. In non life-safety applications, Cat 5 cable can be used instead. Up to four FMICs can be daisy-chained on up to 1000 metres if cable (fire rated or Cat 5).
- Page 3 Mounting holes The FMIC should be located in an area that will be as quiet as possible in an emergency. Fix the box to the wall, normally between 1.2 and 1.4 metres from the final floor position using suitable fasteners.
- Page 4 Strip and connect the cables to the terminal block as shown below. If you are fitting more than one FMIC, joint the cables in a separate connection block and then use connect to the FMIC using short tails.
- Page 5 All FMICs are provided with the same key (to pass). A ‘T-Bar’ option is available at extra cost, however, this is not recommended for public places. Consider keeping the key in a “break glass” box adjacent to the FMIC.
