BEFORE INSTALLING
This information is included as a quick reference installation guide. Refer to
the control panel installation manual and the SWIFT® Wireless Manual for
detailed system information. If the modules will be installed in an existing op-
erational system, inform the operator and local authority that the system will
be temporarily out of service. Disconnect power to the control panel before
installing the modules.
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of this equipment.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The FW-MM(A) Monitor Module is intended for use with a wireless gateway
or wireless fire alarm control panel (FACP) to interface with a device having
contacts used to signal status conditions. The input to the monitor module is
non-latching and does not require a reset. The device communicates through
a robust, bi-directional mesh network to the gateway and/or FACP. Rotary
dial switches are provided for setting the module's address. The module has a
panel controlled LED indicator. (See Figure 1.)
FIGURE 1. CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
FACEPLATE
The faceplate includes a magnet for activation and tamper resistance. (See
Figure 2.) The faceplate magnet activates communication to the panel, there-
fore, the faceplate must be installed for the module to work properly. The
magnet also activates a supervisory tamper fault at the panel if the nameplate
is removed. Do NOT remove this magnet. The faceplate for a wireless module
CANNOT be replaced with the faceplate of a standard wired module.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Low battery levels on the wireless devices are displayed as a trouble in the
FACP. Therefore when the message "TROUBLE BATTERY LOW" is displayed,
replace the battery in the device. This message is an indication that approxi-
mately one week of battery life remains.
COMPATIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
To ensure proper operation, this module shall be connected to a compatible
Notifier system control panel (list available from Notifier).
To replace the batteries in a wireless device use the following steps:
1. Have 4 CR123A (or DL123A) batteries available
2. Remove the faceplate from the module.
3. Open the battery compartment. (See Figure 3.)
4. Remove the used batteries and replace with new batteries. The battery com-
partment is designed such that the batteries can only align in the appropri-
ate direction. Do not force the batteries into the openings.
5. Replace the battery compartment cover.
6. Replace the faceplace.
