CAUTION !!!
If this module will be installed in an
existing operational system, inform the
operator and local authority that the system
will be temporarily out of service.
Disconnect power to the control panel
before installing the module.
Note:
Radio Frequency Interference and Electro-Magnetic Interference are sources
of noise that can adversely affect the fire alarm systems installation.
When installing fire alarm system devices, avoid placing devices or
wiring close to potential noise sources such as:
• Transmitters or antennas;
•Ballast lighting;
•Electrical motors;
•Large power transformers;
•Large machines.
Avoid running SLC circuit in the same conduit as power lines. Utilize twisted
pair and shielded wire in environments where excessive noise is expected.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR DCP-FRCME-EEPROM FAST RESPOND CONTACT
MONITORING MODULE
The information contained in this installation instruction is a quick reference guide. For detailed system
information refer to the panel manufacturers installation manual. This instruction is generic and will not address
specific programming procedures.
This instruction applies to the DCP EEPROM Fast Response Contact
Monitoring Module (FRCME) which is to be connected to a DCP
Signaling Line Circuit (SLC). Typical applications are manual pull
stations, water flow devices or any dry contact alarm device, either
FRCME-P is shown in Fig. 2, the FRCME-4 is shown in Fig. 3. All

GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
N/O or N/C contacts can be monitored.
MOUNTING REQUIREMENTS:
The DCP FRCME Module has two mounting options. The
the modules will follow Fig. 2A & 3A for wiring connections.
NOTE: All wiring must conform to local codes, ordinances and
1) Install module wiring in accordance with the job drawings and
appropriate wiring diagram (see Fig. 2A & 3A).
2) Secure the module to a U.L. listed electrical box (supplied by
installer) as shown in Fig. 2, 3.

FRCME-P PROGRAMMING CONNECTIONS
To program the FRCME-P,
connect the red alligator clip to
the S(In) wire and the black
alligator clip to the SC(In) wire
(see figure 1A). For proper
address setting, polarity must
be observed.
