XP95 Open-Area Sounder and Sounder Visual
Indicator Installation Guide
General
This guide refers to the Outdoor (Type B) XP95 Open-Area Sounder, but the installation process
is identical for all products listed below:
Item Number Product Description
4107-4002 XP95 Open-Area Sounder Red Body (AS7240-3)
4107-4003 XP95 Open-Area Sounder White Body (AS7240-3)
4107-6003 XP95 Open-Area Sounder Visual Indicator (AS7240-3)
The sounder is connected to control panels which use the Discovery or XP95 protocol. It com-
plies with the requirements of AS7240-3.
The sounder is supplied with an isolating base. A yellow LED is illuminated if a loop short circuit is
detected.
The tones incorporated in the sounder products are:
Australian AS7240-3 Tone, New Zealand NZS4512 Tone & Apollo Standard Tone.
There are two volume settings in each sounder variant.
Installation
1. Drill out the cable entries and mounting holes as required on the base (using a 20mm hole
cutter for the cable entries), taking care not to damage the electronics. Do not attempt to
knock these out as the base will be damaged.
2. Secure the base to the mounting surface with pan-head screws. If IP65 integrity is required,
fi t the weatherproof mounting pad between the base and the mounting surface. Fit the
‘O’ ring to the base (Fig. 2) using a lubricant such as silicone grease.
3. Set the sounder address using the table overleaf.
4. To lock the sounder in the base, snip the break-out on the base rim (location shown in Fig. 2).
Fit the sounder to the base.

Functional Test Data
The sounder is loop-powered and controlled by the control panel using the output bits in the
communication protocol.
Troubleshooting
Before investigating individual units for faults, it is important to check the system wiring is fault-
free. Earth faults on data loops may cause communication errors.
