INTRODUCTION
The Sounder Base Ad dress Mod ules (FC430SAM/FC430SAB) are de signed to
con trol a loop pow ered sounder base for use with the FCsystem, one vari ant
(FC430SAB) has an in te gral bea con. They may also be used to drive a re lay base.
The units are used to sup ply the ad dress de cod ing in place of a de tec tor, thus pro -
vid ing a loop pow ered sounder when used in con junc tion with an FC430SAB. The
mod ules are col our matched to the sounder bases. The FC430SAM/FC430SAB is
locked into the base us ing the lock ing de vice in te gral to the sounder base.
Note: To en su re that the so un der base me ets the Access re qui re ments of
EN54-3, the SAM/SAB must be se cu red to the so un der base by a loc king pin at -
ta ched to the 5" Uni ver sle Base.
1.1 FC430SAM
The FC430SAM is suit able for wall or ceil ing mount ing as stan dard, but it has no in -
te gral LED or re mote LED drive.
1.2 FC430SAB
