Specifications

3.5 Analog Sensors
The 7100 accommodates only FCI approved, U.L. Listed, Factory Mutual Approved analog sensors and
bases. See FCI Publication, P/N 9000-0427 for a list of approved sensors and bases. Each signaling line circuit
can accommodate 99 sensor address points, using Address numbers 01 to 99.
3.5.1 Address Switches
Addresses are set via the rotary switches on each sensor or module. Setting the address is accomplished
by turning each of the two (2) rotary switches until they point to the numbers indicating the proper address (e.g.,
SW1 @ #2 and SW2 @ #5 would indicate address #25).
3.5.2 Drift Compensation
The 7100 contains a program which performs continuous testing of analog sensors, including sensitivity tests.
This program will compensate all analog sensors for age and environmental conditions. Should a problem occur
in a sensor, a “Failed Test”, “Dirty” or “Very Dirty” indication for the specific device will appear on the system
display and be recorded in the Event Log and the Serial Port.
3.6 Addressable Modules
The 7100 accommodates only FCI approved, U.L. Listed, Factory Mutual Approved addressable monitor
and/or control modules. See FCI Publication, P/N 9000-0427 for a list of approved modules. Each SLC can
accommodate 98 addressable module points, using Addresses 101 through 198.
In the event of common mode noise problems, a Noise Control Module (NCM-1) may be installed. See
Figure 2. The white wire lead must be connected to earth ground.
3.6.1 Address Switches
These addresses are set via the rotary switches on each module. Setting the address is accomplished by
turning each of the two (2) rotary switches until they point to the numbers indicating the proper address (e.g.,
SW1 @ #5 and SW2 @ #7 would indicate address # 157). Note that the “100" digit is pre-set in all addressable
modules.

3.9 Optional Modules
3.9.1 Class A Option Module (CAOM)
The CAOM provides Class A signaling for the notification appliance circuits and Class A, Style 6 signaling
for the signaling line circuits. It also provides a disconnect switch for each signaling line circuit and a common
disconnect switch for both notification appliance circuits. See Table 3 for wiring connections.
3.9.2 Municipal Circuit Option Module (MCOM)
The MCOM provides output for a Local Energy City Master Box, reverse polarity output for leased line
connection, or releasing solenoid output. See Table 3 for wiring connections and FCI Publication, P/N
9000-0427 for a list of approved solenoids.
Ratings: Master box (NPL) Polarity Reversal (PL) Releasing Service (NPL)
Nominal voltage 24 VDC 24 VDC 24 VDC
Supervisory current .0018 amp. .012 amp. .0005 amp.
Alarm current .510 amp. (max.) .012 amp. .700 amp.
Line resistance 35 ohms (max.) 2 ohms (max.)
Trip coil resistance 14.5 ohms (max.)
3.9.3 Printer Transient Module (PTRM)
The PTRM provides sufficient transient protection to the RS-232 output to comply with the applicable codes
for wiring leaving the confines of the control box, as well as the proper isolation of the signal to prevent damage
or interference caused by connection to certain EDP devices.

IMPORTANT: In systems incorporating the Positive Alarm Sequence (PAS) in conjunction with addressable
modules, (AMM-2, -4, -4S), only one (1) initiating device may be connected to each module (address).
EXAMPLE: Connect only one manual station per AMM-2 module.
