1. Introduction
This manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of the Notifier FMM-1 Monitor Module. The FMM-1 is designed to monitor a circuit of normally open contact devices in a fire alarm system. It is an integral component for ensuring the safety and reliability of your fire detection system.
2. Consignes de sécurité
Always adhere to local codes, standards, and regulations when installing and maintaining fire alarm equipment. Installation and servicing should only be performed by qualified personnel. Disconnect all power before servicing. Failure to follow these instructions may result in property damage, serious injury, or death.
- Assurez-vous que l’alimentation est débranchée avant l’installation ou l’entretien.
- Follow all wiring diagrams and instructions provided by Notifier.
- Ne pas utiliser le module en dehors de ses limites environnementales spécifiées.
- Veillez à ce que le module reste propre et exempt de poussière et de débris.
3. Description et caractéristiques du produit
The Notifier FMM-1 is a compact monitor module designed for use with Notifier intelligent fire alarm control panels. It provides a single initiating device circuit (IDC) for monitoring normally open contact devices such as manual pull stations, waterflow switches, or supervisory switches. The module communicates with the control panel using the FlashScan protocol, allowing for fast and reliable communication.

4. Installation et configuration
The FMM-1 module is typically installed in a standard 4-inch square electrical box. It is designed for surface or flush mounting. Refer to the specific wiring diagrams provided with your Notifier fire alarm control panel for detailed connection instructions.
4.1 Câblage
Connect the module to the Signaling Line Circuit (SLC) of the fire alarm control panel and to the initiating device circuit (IDC) according to the system's design and Notifier's documentation. Ensure proper polarity and termination for all connections.
4.2 Adressage
Each FMM-1 module must be assigned a unique address on the SLC loop using the rotary switches on the module. Consult your control panel's manual for valid address ranges and programming procedures.

5. Mode d'emploi
Once properly installed and addressed, the FMM-1 module operates automatically as part of the fire alarm system. It continuously monitors the connected initiating device circuit for changes in state (e.g., a pull station being activated, a waterflow switch closing). Upon detecting an alarm or supervisory condition, the module transmits this information to the fire alarm control panel, which then initiates the appropriate system response.
6. Entretien
Regular maintenance is crucial for the reliable operation of the FMM-1 module and the overall fire alarm system. Refer to NFPA 72 (National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code) and local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) requirements for specific testing and maintenance schedules.
- Inspection annuelle: Visually inspect the module and its connections for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose wiring.
- Tests fonctionnels : Periodically test the initiating devices connected to the FMM-1 to ensure they properly trigger an alarm or supervisory signal at the control panel.
- Nettoyage: If necessary, gently clean the module's exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
7. Dépannage
If the FMM-1 module or its associated circuit is indicating a fault condition on the fire alarm control panel, consider the following:
| Problème | Cause possible | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Module Fault/Trouble | Incorrect wiring, short circuit, open circuit on IDC, incorrect addressing, module failure. | Verify wiring connections and polarity. Check for shorts or opens on the IDC. Confirm correct address setting. If issues persist, replace the module. |
| No Response from Device | Device not properly connected, device failure, wiring issue on IDC. | Check connections at the initiating device and the FMM-1. Test the initiating device independently. Inspect IDC wiring for breaks or damage. |
For complex issues, contact a certified fire alarm technician or Notifier technical support.
