3 Physical Description
The FA-200 Alarm Bar comes pre-assembled and requires
only connection via its integrated cord to a controller with
relays. It has mounting flanges at the top and bottom with
four holes that accept screws for attaching the FA-200
Alarm Bar to a wall or other flat surface. It receives all
power from the controller that it is attached to, simplifying
installation and maintenance.
4 Installation
4.1 Mounting the FA-200 Alarm Bar
The FA-200 Alarm Bar is designed to be wall-mounted and has
four holes for anchoring the FA-200 Alarm Bar, using screws or
bolts.
Before mounting the FA-200 Alarm Bar, make sure that its cord
can reach the controller that it will be electrically connected to.
Make sure that there is approximately 12" (30 cm) of clearance
on all sides of the FA-200 Alarm Bar so that the siren’s sound is
not attenuated and to ensure clear view of the four visible alarm
lights.
Follow these steps:
1. Locate the FA-200 Alarm Bar on a wall or other flat surface
and mark the four holes’ locations.
2. Remove the FA-200 Alarm Bar.
3. Drill the four holes.

4. Hold the FA-200 Alarm Bar firmly against the wall and
insert and tighten the screws.
The FA-200 Alarm Bar is now ready to be connected to the
controller.
4.2 Drilling Chart
When mounting the FMC2000 on a wall, make sure to use
heavy-duty steel screws spaced as indicated below.
4.3 Electrical/Control Connections
The FA-200 Alarm Bar has a 33’ (10 m) cable with a screw-
type multi-pin connector. It is designed to mate with the
connector on a RAE Systems FMC2000 controller and some
similar controllers that use the same connector type and relay
configuration.

4.4 Connecting to An FMC2000 Controller
The FMC2000 has a female 6-pin connector on the bottom that
is designed for connection with a RAE Systems FA-200 Alarm
Bar.
Note: The internal wires from the FMC2000 connector are pre-
wired to the NO (Normally Open) connection points on the five
relay wiring blocks. Refer to the FMC2000 User’s Guide for
details of wiring for other configurations, including NC
(normally closed) and other alarm orders.
Note: Pin F connects to Ground. Pins B, C, D, and E transmit
12V @ 2A power when an alarm occurs.

Note: If a second controller is not connected to the auxiliary
port on the FA-200 Alarm Bar, keep the dust cap on the
connector to protect the pins.

4.5 Positioning The Siren Horn
If the FA-200 Alarm Bar is to be used outdoors or in other
environments where it may become wet, point the horn slightly
downward to allow drainage. This will prolong its life and
ensure its effectiveness.
5 Maintenance
No periodic maintenance is required for the FA-200 Alarm Bar.
Check occasionally that the cable is securely fastened and
shows no sign of damage. Also check that the polycarbonate
lenses are tightened on the bases of the strobe lights and have
no cracks. If they are damaged, they should be replaced.
