INTRODUCTION
Introduction
1.1 Before You Begin
Before starting to program, we recommend you read through the contents of this manual. The information
in this document allows you to quickly learn the programming options and operational capabilities of the
XTL/XTLC panel.
After this Introduction, the remaining sections describe the functions of each programming menu items
along with their available options. The XTL/XTLC contains all of its programming information in an on-
board processor and does not require an external programmer.
In addition to this manual, you should also be familiar with the following documents:
• XTL/XTLC Installation Guide (LT-1105)
• XTL/XTLC/XTLN/XTLN-WiFi User’s Guide (LT-1109)
• XTL/XTLC Programming Sheet (LT-1095)
Programming Information Sheet
Included with each XTL/XTLC panel is the Programming Sheet. This sheet lists the various options
available for programming the panel. Before starting, completely ll out the sheet with the programming
options you intend to enter into the panel.
Having completed programming sheets available while entering data helps to prevent errors and can
shorten the length of time you spend programming. Completed sheets also provide you with an accurate
account of the panel’s program you can keep on le for future system service or expansion.
The remainder of the Introduction explains starting and ending a programming session.
1.2 Getting Started
Ground Yourself Before Handling the Panel! Touch any grounded metal before touching the panel to
discharge static.
The XTL/XTLC panel should be completely installed before you begin programming. Make sure the AC and
battery wires are correctly installed.
Initializing the Panel
When programming a panel for the rst time or rewriting the entire program of an existing XTL/XTLC, use
the Initialization function described in section 2. Initializing clears the panel’s memory of any old data
and sets the highest numbered user number to user code 99.
Program from an LCD or Wireless Keypad
You can program the panel using an LCD Keypad connected to the panel PROG header.
Wireless Keypads can be used for panel programming after being programmed in the panel manually or by
using the Wireless Keypad Association operation.
To enable association operation in the panel, press the XTL/XTLC RESET button 3 times within 12 seconds
allowing 3 seconds between each press of the reset button. When in keypad association, the XTL/XTLC
Red and Green logo LEDs turn on steady.
For 60 seconds the panel listens for wireless keypads that are in the Installer Options Menu (3577 CMD)
and have not been programmed, or associated into another panel. Those keypads are assigned to the
rst open device position automatically based upon the order in which they are detected. The keypad
logo turns Green to indicate it has been associated with the panel. See the 9000 Series Wireless Keypad
Installation Guide (LT-1107) for additional information.
Note: Programming can not be accessed using an Icon Series keypad. Use a 32-character keypad to
complete the panel programming.
Accessing the Programmer
To access the programmer function of the XTL/XTLC:
1. If using a standard LCD keypad, connect to the PROG header and set the keypad to Address 1.
2. If using a wireless LCD keypad, make sure panel communication has been established and the user
menu appears on an associated keypad before continuing.
3. Press the RESET button for two seconds.
4. Enter the code 6653 (PROG).
5. The keypad displays: PROGRAMMER.
6. Remove the hardwired keypad (if used) when programming is completed.
