IDS X-Series Installer Manual 700-398-02H Issued July 2013
2. Introduction to the IDS X-Series
Thank you for purchasing an IDS Alarm Panel.
The IDS X-Series alarm is a versatile, Bylaw 25 compliant, expandable Alarm Panel. It comes in two versions,
X16 and X64. Both have up to 8 partitions and can have 8 keypads. The X16 can be expanded from 8 to16 zone
and the X64 from 8 to 64 zones. Most features are configurable and may be programmed directly through a
keypad or via serial PC connection or telephone system, using the IDSwift Download Software and appropriate
modem (P/N: 860-36-0001).
There are up to 64 programmable burglary zones on the X64, 16 programmable burglary zones on the X16. A
dedicated panic zone, monitored siren output, auxiliary power output, and 5 onboard programmable outputs
expandable to 25 on the X64, which may be programmed to perform various, trigger/switching functions are
available.
For correct operation, the IDS X-series panels must be used in conjunction with the specified transformer /
battery combination (ask your sales representative for a copy of the IDS Power Budget spreadsheet to identify
your needs) and appropriate peripheral sensors and signalling devices.
NOTE:
X-SERIES products are not compatible with any previous IDS products, such as the IDS816 and IDS1632.
