Installation Installing the Control Panel
3.5.3  Loop Expander Module
Installing a Loop Expander Module adds a 
second SLC loop to the control panel.  Refer 
to the Figure 3.6 for connector illustrations. 
1. Thread four (4) 0.937 inch (23.8 mm) 
stand-offs through indicated holes in the 
XLS140-CPU board. 
2. Plug stacker-connector into J3 on the 
XLS140-CPU.
3. Lay the LEM onto the standoffs and 
connect the Loop Expander Module 
(LEM) into the stacker-connector 
attached to J3.
4. Attach LEM using screws provided with 
the module.
5. After LEM is mounted on the control 
panel, connect the SLC loops to TB1 on 
the LEM and TB16 on the 
XLS140-CPU. This system supports 
either FlashScan or CLIP mode devices. 
Refer to the SLC loop manual for wiring requirements and specific details.
