Introduction
Note: AIM-200 features discussed in this document are available with
AIM-200 software part number 73264 or greater.
The Addressable Intelligent Module (AIM-200) functions as an interface
between the FC-2000 Fire Alarm Control Panel andintelligent/addressable
devices. To the FC-2000, the AIM-200 looks like an IZM-8 Initiating
Zone Module. On its single communications loop, the AIM-200 will
communicate with up to 99 addressable modules and 99 intelligent
detectors. The AIM-200 will communicate with the following:
2551J Intelligent Photoelectric Smoke Detector
1551J Intelligent Ionization Smoke Detector
5551J Intelligent Thermal Sensor
M500MJ Addressable Monitor Module
M502MJ Addressable Monitor Module
M501MJ Miniature Monitor Module
M510CJ Addressable Control Module
BGX-101L Addressable Manual Pull Station
DH-500J Intelligent Duct Detector Housing
The 198 devices are mapped into eight software zones by the AIM-200.
The status of these zones is reported to the CPU-2000. The AIM-200
includes a digital display for identifying the exact device address within a
zone. The display is also used to display device types and analog detector
sensitivity values.
Although the AIM-200 is intended primarily as an initiating input module,
it can support M510CJ Control Modules on the loop. The M510CJ
modules may be mapped to AIM-200 zones much like outputs are mapped
to inputs during standard FC-2000 programming.
The AIM-200 may be mixed in a system with any of these system modules:
IZM-8 Initiating Zone Module
IZE-A Initiating Zone Expander
ICM-4 Indicating Circuit Module
ICE-4 Initiating Circuit Expander
CRM-4 Control Relay Module
CRE-4 Control Relay Expander

B501BJ Base
These intelligent, addressable detectors provide analog information to
the AIM-200. The AIM-200 processes this analog information and
continually makes decisions on the alarm, maintenance, or normal status
of each device. Each detector head mounts to a B501BJ base for ease of
installation or replacement. The sensitivity of each detector can be set
by the programmer at the AIM-200 for one of three levels (low,
medium, and high). Each detector responds to an address that is set in
the head via built-in rotary decimal switches.
2551J
An intelligent photoelectric smoke detector that provides analog
measurements of the optical smoke level in its chamber to the AIM-200
panel.
1551J
An intelligent ionization smoke detector that measures the level of
combustion products in its chamber using the ionization principle and
reports this measurement to the AIM-200.
5551J
An intelligent thermal sensor (135-degree F fixed temperature).
RA400Z
A remote single LED annunciator that can be wired directly off of an
addressable detector for annunciation of that detector’s alarm status.
Control and Monitor Modules
The M510CJ control module and the M500MJ monitor module provide
the interface between the FC-2000 and conventional initiating and
indicating devices. Both types of modules respond to an address that is
set by the installer with built-in rotary decimal switches. A flashing LED
indicates power is applied. A thermoplastic cover (illustrated at left) is
provided with each module for mounting to a 4-inch square mounting
box.

information on installing other FC-2000 equipment, refer to the Installing
the FC-2000Technical Bulletinin this manual.
Complete the following steps to install the AIM-200 onto the CHS-4
Chassis.
1. Mount the AIM-200 to a CHS-4 Chassis.
2. Insert the tab on the bottom of the AIM-200 into the slot on the
bottom of the CHS-4.
3. Fasten the AIM-200 to the top of the CHS-4 using the two captive
screws in the top corners of the module. Refer to Figure 4.
Note: If point annunciation (192 intelligent AIM-200 points and
56 standard system circuits) of a single AIM-200 is desired, the
AIM-200 must be mounted in the second slot of the first chassis
(directly to the right of the CPU). This annunciation option must
also be selected in system programming.

The AIM-200 communicates with intelligent and addressable initiating,
monitor and control devices through a communications loop. The
FC-2000 can support up to ten communications loops, each controlled by
an AIM-200 module. The communications loops can be wired as
non-redundant (Figure 9), redundant (Figure 12), or isolated redundant
(Figure 13).
Isolator modules (M500XJ) permit a zone of detectors and modules to be
electrically isolated from the remainder of the communications loop,
allowing critical loop components to function in the event of a circuit fault
(see Figures 13 and 18).
Addressable monitor modules (M500MJ, M502MJ, and M501MJ) allow
the AIM-200 to monitor entire circuits of conventional normally open
contacts, alarm initiating devices, manual pull stations, 4-wire smoke
detectors, heat detectors, and waterflow and supervisory devices
(Figures21 and 22). A type ofmonitor module, the addressable
BGX-101L, provides point annunciation of manual pull stations
(Figure27).
