BEFORE INSTALLING

If the modules will be installed in an existing operational system, inform the

operator and local authority that the system will be temporarily out of service.

Disconnect the power to the control panel before installing the modules. This

system contains static sensitive components. Always ground yourself with a

proper wrist strap before handling any circuits so that static charges are re-

moved from the body. The housing cabinet should be metallic and suitably

grounded.

NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of this equipment.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The XP6-R Six Relay Control Module is intended for use in an intelligent alarm

system. Each module is intended for Form-C switching applications, which

do not require wiring supervision for the load circuit. A single isolated set

of dry relay contacts is provided for each module, which is capable of being

wired for either normally open or normally closed for each operation. Each

module has its own address. A pair of rotary code switches is used to set the

address of the first module from 01 to 154. The remaining modules are auto-

matically assigned to the next five higher addresses. Provisions are included

for disabling a maximum of three unused modules to release the addresses to

be used elsewhere. Each XP6-R module also has panel controlled green LED

indicators. The panel can cause the LEDs to blink, latch on, or latch off.

Maintenance Features

The XP6-R Six Relay Control Module is an intelligent alarm system component designed for Form-C switching applications. Each module provides a single isolated set of dry relay contacts, configurable for either normally open or normally closed operation, and does not require wiring supervision for the load circuit. It features individual addressing, set by a pair of rotary code switches for the first module (addresses 01 to 154), with subsequent modules automatically assigned the next five higher addresses. The module also includes panel-controlled green LED indicators that can blink, latch on, or latch off.

Function Description:

The XP6-R module allows for the control of up to six independent relays within an intelligent fire alarm system. These relays can be used for various switching applications, such as controlling auxiliary devices, activating notification appliances, or interfacing with other building systems. The module's intelligent design allows for communication with compatible Notifier control panels, enabling precise control and status monitoring of each relay. A key feature is the ability to disable up to three unused modules, releasing their addresses for use elsewhere. This is achieved by placing a shunt on the "Address Disable" pins, with disabled modules always being the highest addresses in the sequence.

Important Technical Specifications:

Normal Operating Voltage: 15-32VDC
Stand-By Current: 1.90 mA @ 24V
Alarm Current: 32 mA (assuming all six relays are switched and all six LEDs are solid on)
Temperature Range: 32°F to 120°F (0°C to 49°C)
Humidity: 10 to 93% Non-condensing
Dimensions: 6.8"H × 5.8"W × 1.0"D
Wire Gauge: 12-18 AWG
Relay Current: 30 mA/Relay Pulse (15.6 ms pulse duration) pulse under panel control

Relay Contact Ratings (Maximum Voltage / Current / Load Description / Application):

2 A / 25 VAC / PF = 0.35 / Non-coded
3 A / 30 VDC / Resistive / Non-coded
2 A / 30 VDC / Resistive / Coded
0.46 A / 30 VDC / (L/R = 20ms) / Non-coded
0.7 A / 70.7 VAC / PF = 0.35 / Non-coded
0.9 A / 125 VDC / Resistive / Non-coded
0.5 A / 125 VAC / PF = 0.75 / Non-coded
0.3 A / 125 VAC / PF = 0.35 / Non-coded

Usage Features:

Addressing: Each module has a unique address set by rotary code switches. The first module's address can be set from 01 to 154, and subsequent modules are automatically assigned the next five consecutive addresses. Extended addressing above 99 is supported on compatible systems by carefully removing the stop on the upper rotary switch.
Module Disabling: A shunt is provided to disable up to three unused modules, starting from the highest address downward. This allows for address optimization in systems where not all six relays are required.
LED Indicators: Panel-controlled green LEDs provide visual status feedback, capable of blinking, latching on, or latching off.
Mounting Options:
- Up to six XP6-R modules can be installed on a CHS-6 chassis within a BB-25, CAB-3, or CAB-4 cabinet.
- One or two XP6-R modules can be installed in a BB-XP cabinet, which has a built-in chassis.
- The chassis design ensures that the front module positions are offset below the rear positions, making all status indicators visible.
Wiring: Relay contacts can be connected to either power-limited or non-power-limited sources. It is crucial to maintain at least 1/4" (6.35 mm) separation between power-limited and non-power-limited wiring. Power-limited circuits must use FPL, FPLR, or FPLP cable as per Article 760 of the NEC.
Compatibility: The XP6-R module is compatible with various Notifier Fire Alarm Control Panels, including AM2020/AFP1010, AFP-200, AFP-300/AFP-400, System 5000 with AIM-200, AFC-600, NFS-640, and NFS-3030. Modules are programmed as FRM-1 modules within these systems.

Maintenance Features:

Static Sensitivity: The system contains static-sensitive components. Users must ground themselves with a proper wrist strap before handling any circuits to prevent static discharge.
Power Cycling: The XP6-R module requires a power cycle for shunt changes (e.g., disabling modules) to take effect.
Installation Instructions: Detailed steps are provided for chassis and module installation, including two methods for rear module installation and one for front module installation, ensuring proper alignment and secure fastening.
Wiring Diagrams: Installation requires adherence to job drawings and appropriate wiring diagrams, with clear instructions for stripping wire insulation and tightening clamping plate screws.
FCC Compliance: The device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules, ensuring it does not cause harmful interference and accepts any interference received. Guidelines are provided for resolving potential interference issues, such as reorienting antennas or increasing separation between equipment.
