Setting the address on your Mircom MIX-M502MAP Interface Module is essential for proper communication within your intelligent, two-wire system. Here's a straightforward guide:
-
Module Overview: The MIX-M502MAP utilizes built-in rotary decade switches for address configuration. Each module requires a unique address for the control panel to identify and monitor connected devices, like two-wire conventional smoke detectors.
-
Installation Notes: The module is designed for mounting to standard 4-inch square electrical boxes, which should have a minimum depth of 2 1/8 inches. Surface-mounted electrical boxes (SMB500) are also an option, available from System Sensor. Always adhere to local electrical codes and regulations during installation. The module is intended for use with power-limited wiring only, so ensure your wiring matches the job drawings and wiring diagrams.

Address Configuration Steps:
a. Refer to your system's job drawings. These drawings specify the correct address for each module in your setup.
b. Locate the rotary decade switches. These switches are typically found on the module itself.
c. Use a small tool, such as a small screwdriver, to adjust the switches. Set the switches to the address specified in the job drawings.
d. Verify. Confirm that the address set on the module matches the address programmed into your control panel. This synchronization is crucial for the system to function correctly.
Following these steps ensures that your Mircom MIX-M502MAP Interface Module is properly addressed, enabling effective communication and monitoring within your fire alarm system.
