Addressable Loop Module

The Addressable Loop Module (ALM3-IP) communicates with all other modules installed on the network through an Ethernet connection and is addressed through the ALM3-IP unique IP address.

Distributed Architecture

All FC-250 modules operate independently. There is no central operating system, no central point of failure. Processing power is distributed throughout the campus, increasing system survivability, eliminating home-run wiring costs while decreasing downtime due to system maintenance.

Highly Survivable

Since NAC’s and SLC’s are grouped on the same module and events are processed locally, ALM modules will perform local operations even if network communication has been severed. Distributed modules also minimize campus-wide downtime by restricting maintenance to the local module.

The ALM is available in 5 configurations.

  • ALM3-IP-10 (1 SLC, 0 NAC)
  • ALM3-IP-20 (2 SLC, 0 NAC)
  • ALM3-IP-02 (0 SLC, 2 NAC)
  • ALM3-IP-12 (1 SLC, 2 NAC)
  • ALM3-IP-22 (2 SLC, 2 NAC)

Each SLC provides 1A of available power. Each NAC provides 3A of available power.

  • Unique IP address
  • 3000 event history log per module
  • May be distributed through facility in
    any number up to system max of 50
    modules
  • Continues to operate with loss of
    system communication
  • Synchronizes data with network when
    communication link is restored
  • SmokeClear™ alert signals when
    smoke has cleared detector chamber
  • Can be distributed alone, with other
    modules, with central or local power
  • Supports SLC circuits, NAC circuits –
    or a combination of each
  • Power Limited Class A/B NAC circuits
    rated at 24V/ 3A each
  • Each Class A/B SLC circuit supports
    126 XP and Discovery detectors and
    devices on same circuit
  • 1A/24VDC resettable power connection
  • Modular listing
  • RoHS Compliant

The contractor shall furnish and install, where indicated on the plans, central or distributed ALM3-IP-xy modules to
provide for analog addressable SLC circuits capable of supporting 126 detectors and i/o devices in any combination
and power limited 3A NAC circuits and attached devices capable of synchronized operation. The ALM3-IP-xy shall
maintain an integral 3000 event history log and be capable of stand-alone operation should communication with the
network be interrupted. The ALM3-IP-xy shall be capable of synchronizing its data with the remaining network when
communication is restored. The ALM3-IP-xy must be distinguished by a unique IP address for secure communication
and to distinguish it from all other modules on the network. The ALM3-IP-xy shall be capable of remote installation and
shall be capable of being powered from a central 24V system source or with an integral 8A power supply and battery
charger. The ALM3-IP-xy shall contain an integral USB 2.0 Type A communications port for program upload/download
to/from a USB Mass Storage Device. The ALM3-IP-xy shall also be programmable through the USB ports of any
attached VPM and SDM3-IP modules. The ALM3-IP-xy must be UL/ULC listed and UL/ULC listed as compatible with
Harding network fire controls. The ALM3-IP-xy modules shall be Harding part numbers ALM3-IP-10, ALM3-IP-12,
ALM3-IP-02, ALM3-IP-20, ALM3-IP-22,
