INTRODUCTION
Installation of the FC410DIM comprises the following:
Ø Installation of cables.
Ø Cable continuity, Insulation and Resistance checks.
Ø Installation of ancillary devices and connection.
The Addressable FC410DIM provides the ability to connect and Interface
one or two zones of 24V dc 2-wire conventional detectors (non-address-
able) to the Fire Alarm Controller.
The FC410DIM monitors the status of detectors and wiring to detectors and
signals detector and wiring status back to the Controller.
FEATURES
The FC410DIM can be configured to:
Ø Monitor 1 or 2 Class B spur circuits.
A Monitored Detector going into Alarm, on either spur circuit, will cause
FC410DIM to report the Alarm State back to the Controller.
Status LED provides status of all detectors monitored by the FC410DIM:
Ø The LED is normally off.
Ø The LED turns ON when a detector monitored by the FC410DIM has
gone into Alarm.
Ø The LED will pulse when the Controller polls the FC410DIM.

WIRING & INSTALLATION NOTES
The following notes apply:
1)
There are no user-required settings on the FC410DIM.
2)
All wiring must conform to the applicable standards.
3)
All wiring must be free of earths.
4)
Fit the PCB to the FC470CV cover.
5)
Connect the wiring for the monitored circuit as shown in wiring diagrams.
6)
When monitoring only one Class B circuit, terminate the unused circuit
with the proper EOL resistor.
7)
Verify the correct polarity of wiring before connecting FC410DIM to the
addressable loop circuit.
+
Refer to Fig.4.
1) If one spur circuit is used , the other circuit must be terminated by 4k7
EOL.
INSTALLATION TO FC470CV ANCILLARY COVER
1)
Assemble the FC410DIM to FC470CV Double Gang cover, using the
four screw and washers provided.
2)
Fit cover onto FC backbox.
ADDRESS SETTINGS
The FC410DIM has a default factory set address of 255, this must be set to
the loop address of the device using the FC490ST Loop Service Tool. The
FC410DIM may be programmed with the address prior to being installed by
using the internal programming port or after being installed by using the pro-
gramming port on the front cover (see Fig. 2 and Fig.3).
+
Note: once the address has been programmed, take note of the device
location and address number, to include on site drawings.
+
Note: this device use one address only on the loop.
CABLING
The maximum section of the cable that can be connected at any one termi-
nal is 2.5mm
2
. The section is calculated based on the characteristics of the
cable and the load.
