2 Network Controllers Manual
The system data base is stored in non-volatile Electrically Erasable
Programmable Read Only Memory (EEPROM). Information is entered
and/or modified with an IBM compatible personal computer.
The CM1 is comprised of a control module motherboard, a display panel,
and the following plug in cards:
A. The CPU card which contains the controller microprocessor, system
firmware, RAM and EEPROM memory.
B. The communications card. Options include class A (style 7) or B
(style 4) RS-485 or serial loop system data lines. Serial data lines
are available in 20 mA loop or fiber optic format. An RS-232
printer/program port is also provided on each communications card.
C. Option Cards. A selection of system input and output cards are
available in a number of configurations.
The CM1 circuitry is housed in a protective cover, which contains the
basic system operating instructions.
Application
The CM1 is designed to provide the master control function for a system
of up to 576 points. Each system must have a CM1 which provides 32
panel addresses. A variety of system communication formats are
available.
A variety of option modules are available to customize the function of
each CM1. Available modules include:
• System Communications Cards
• Intelligent Analog Sensor and control cards
• Supervised Input Cards
• Supervised Audio, Control, and Signal Circuits
Additional space for option cards may be added to the system by adding
CM2 series.
Note: There is no survivability if communications is lost to the CM2.

Network Controllers Manual 7
CM1 System Configuration
CM1 configuration is dependent upon system requirements and design.
All CM1s have a CM1 CPU card (P/N 130073/1) installed in connector
P4.
CM1 system communication specifications govern the type of
communications card installed in connector P3 of the CM1. Wiring to
CM1 terminal strip TB1 is dependent on the type of communications card
installed, and may be found on the COMM-3 RS-485/RS-232C
communications card (P/N 130080) or the COMM-3S serial
communications card (P/N 130144).
Two option cards may be installed in the CM1 in connectors P5 and P6.
Details on option card programming and termination’s of CM1 terminal
strips TB2, TB3, and TB4 may be found on each modules technical data
sheet.
Programming Notes
The CM1 panel configuration menu (menu selection “3”) in the data
entry program should be set as “supervised” power supply. Additional
CM2(N) motherboards should be set as “unsupervised” power supply
when connected to the same power supply as the CM1.

Controls
Switches
Reset - Returns system to normal state after all inputs have been
restored. Calls action 9002.
Alarm Silence - Silences audible devices. Calls predetermined action
9004. Pressing Alarm Silence twice initiates drill/all call.
Trouble Silence - Silences local PS4/8B trouble buzzer.
Drill/All Call - Generates general activation on all audible circuits per
action 9003.
Back - Reviews previously displayed information and provides a
backspace function during keypad entry.
Next/Ack - Scrolls display to next screen; acknowledges receipt of
alarm and trouble conditions.
Keypad
The keypad is used to perform advanced system functions, not required
during basic fire alarm system operation. The keypad is normally covered
with removable panel, which contains the basic system operating
instructions.
Buzzer
The system buzzer sounds during system trouble and pulses on
unacknowledged messages. Located on power supply PS4B or PS8B.
System Configuration
CM1N (RMDP-1N) configuration is dependent upon system
requirements and design. All CM1N (RMDP-1N)’s have a CM1N
(RMDP-1N) CPU card (P/N 130073/1) installed in connector P4.
CM1N (RMDP-1N) system communication specifications govern the
type of communications card installed in connector P3 of the CM1N
(RMDP-1N). Wiring to CM1N (RMDP-1N) terminal strip TB1 is
dependent on the type of communications card installed, and may be
found on the COMM-3 RS-485/RS-232C communications card (P/N
130080) or the COMM-3S serial communications card (P/N 130144).
Two option cards may be installed in the CM1N (RMDP-1N) in
connectors P5 and P6. Details on option card programming and
termination’s of CM1N (RMDP-1N) terminal strips TB2, TB3, and TB4
may be found on each modules technical data sheet.
Programming Notes
The CM1N (RMDP-1N) panel configuration menu (menu selection “3”)
in the data entry program should be set as “supervised” power supply.
Additional control modules should be set as “unsupervised” power supply
when connected to the same power supply as the CM1N (RMDP-1N).
