Introduction
Mircom’s FX-350 Series Analog/Addressable Fire Alarm Control Panel provides a loop for 60,126 or three loops for
378 input and output devices, four supervised Class B or A (Style Y or Z) indicating circuits, a full range of auxiliary
power supplies, and extensive common control features via its integrated LCD display and push button console.
Many of its features are fully configurable utilizing the built-in configuration capability via the front panel display and
switches. The panels are available with or without an optional, integrated dialer/modem (except the FX-353 version
which always includes the dialer/modem), and is available (FX-351 and FX-353 - in a larger enclosure) with an
internal LED display for up to 64 points (32 standard). Optional modules include Polarity Reversal and City Tie,
RAX-332 LED Display Adder, and Class A Converter for indicating circuits. Semi-flush or surface mountable
enclosures can be used for retrofits and on new installations. This manual covers the following panels:
