VM-ETH Ethernet Adapter
Card Installation Sheet
Description
The VM-ETH Ethernet Adapter Card provides a standard 10/100BaseT
Ethernet network connection for control panel programming and
diagnostics. It also provides transmission of system events to central
monitoring stations (CMSs), computers running FireWorks, and SMTP
email servers.
The following table below describes the available models.

communication with a computer running FireWorks
VM
-ETH2 Supports panel programming and diagnostics, and
communication with a computer running FireWorks and a
CMS
VM
-ETH3 Supports panel programming and diagnostics, and
communication with a computer running FireWorks, a
CMS, and an SMTP email server
Installation
Install and wire the adapter card in accordance with applicable national
and local codes, ordinances, and regulations.
WARNING: Electrocution hazard. To avoid personal injury or death
from electrocution, remove all sources of power and allow stored
energy to discharge before installing or removing equipment.
Cautions
•Equipment damage hazard. This product is sensitive to
electrostatic discharge (ESD). To avoid damage, follow accepted
ESD handling procedures.
•If removing the VM-CPU main board, first pull out the four plungers
securing it to the electronics chassis. Failure to do so can result in
damage to the main board.
To install the adapter card:
1. Plug the card into J3 on the back of the VM-CPU main board. See
Figure 1.
2. Position the restraining bracket recess over the card, and then
insert the bracket hooks into the slots on the VM-CPU. See
Figure 2.
3. Push the plunger (Figure 2, item 2) through the front of the
VM-CPU and into the restraining bracket, and then push the
locking pin (item 1) into the plunger to secure it.
