Operation
All operation is controlled by the MCU and is set up in the configuration software. See the MCU 
Configuration details in the system manual for all operation information. 
How to Diagnose Assembly Faults
Symptom Action
MRM does not 
communicate with 
MCU. 
 Verify power is applied to the MRM 
 Verify page line is connected to the MRM 
 Verify address of MRM agrees with the setup configuration 
 Ensure CPU PCBA is correctly connected via J1 
 Call for service of the MRM 
MRM does not 
recognize dry 
inputs. 
 Verify power is applied to the MRM 
 Verify page line is connected to the MRM 
 Verify end-of-line resistor(s) properly installed on each input circuit 
 Verify total loop resistance is less than 100 
 Call for service of the MRM 
MRM does not 
activate an alarm 
with 24 V dc 
applied to input 
terminal. (Wet 
contact mode 
ONLY) 
 Verify that the jumper that selects the proper “__ V dc when active” mode is in
the correct position for the desired mode. Refer to Mode 5: IDC Non-
Supervision (Wet Contact) on page 12. 
 Verify that the input jumpers have been repositioned for “wet” operation. 
 Verify that input is within the acceptable dc voltage range (20–30 V dc). 
 Verify that the proper voltage polarity has been observed for external 
connections to the input terminals.
 Call for service of the MRM.
