Electromagnetic Compatibility
The FC410RIM complies with the following:

bances, Radiated Immunity, Electrostatic Discharge, Fast Transients
and Slow High Energy;
ØEN50081-1 for emissions.
INTRODUCTION
The FC410RIM Relay Interface Module provides one volt-free relay change-
over contact on a latching relay. The relay is controlled by a command sent
from the FC fire controller via the addressable loop. The relay state (acti-
vated, deactivated or stuck) is returned to the controller.
FEATURES
FC410RIM features include the following:
ØAddressable functionality.
The control panel sends a command to operate the relay, then reports an
activated or deactivated state back to the panelthrough the use of a set of
contacts dedicated to monitor the state of the relay.
ØOne volt-free dry contact relay output.
ØOutput to drive a high voltage relay HVR800.
ØLED status indicator which is normally off. When the FC410RIM receives
a command to activate, the LED lights.
WIRING & INSTALLATION NOTES
!CAUTION:THE O+ AND O- TERMINALS MUST NOT BE USED.FOR
CONNECTING THE FC410RIM TO AN HVR800, SEE PUBLICATION
17A-03-HVR OR 120-415-528.
The following notes apply:
1) There are no user-required settings (switches, headers) on the
FC410RIM. All wiring must be free of earths.
2) All wiring must conform to the applicable standards.
3) See Figure 4 for FC410RIM Simplified Wiring Diagram.
4) For 24V dc powered applications, only use a regulated supply suitable
for fire protective signalling service.
5) For powered circuit operation, route the positive conductor through the
FC410RIM to the external device, while connecting the common (neu-
tral) conductor to the external circuit.
6) For dry contact switching, connect the external circuit to the COM and N/O
or N/C terminals for normally open or normally closed operation as required.
7) Verify that relay wiring is correct for the FC410RIM before connecting to
the addressable loop circuit.
8) For connection to an HVR800 High Voltage Relay Module, refer to In-
stallation Sheet 17A-03-HVR or 120-415-528.
INSTALLATION TO FC470CV DOUBLE GANG COVER
1) Assemble the FC410RIM to FC470CV Double Gang cover, using the
four screws and washers provided.
2) Snap on the ancillary housing PCB cover.
3) Fit cover onto FC backbox.
ADDRESS SETTINGS
The FC410RIM 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
FC410RIM may be programmed with the address prior to being installed by
using the internal programming port (see Fig.2) or after being installed by
using the programming port on the front cover (see Fig.3).
+Note: once the address has been programmed, take note of the device
location and address number, to include on site drawings.
CABLING
The maximum section of the cable that can be connected at any one termi-
nal is 2.5mm2. The section is calculated based on the characteristics of the
cable and the load.
