consideration should be made to the lock supplier’s documentation before
connection.
IMPORTANT NOTE: For enhanced safety and flexibility the XP1M
controller firmware features the option to select Fail Safe or Fail Secure mode
from within the software. When set into Fail Safe mode the selected lock relays
will reverse their operation. This should be taken into consideration when
connecting a Fail Safe locking device because the panel default is for Fail
Secure.
Extended Alarms
Each XP1M features 3 extended alarm inputs for monitoring third party
equipment and standard alarm input devices (such as door contacts and PIRs).
Fire Alarm override
In addition to the local Break Glass Points fitted at each door, the System
can accept door override signals from a Fire Alarm system using the
configurable Fire Alarm Input.
At all times, this input must detect a closed contact ‘safe’ signal from an
evacuate relay controlled by the fire alarm system. If the fire alarm link is
removed, or the fire panel is activated, the selected doors will open.
The doors that will open in the event of an evacuation signal are selected
by means of a jumper (JP1) as shown above.
NOTE: The Fire Alarm override input will only activate doors that have
been set to Fail Safe in the door configuration menu.
Since this facility does not depend on the microprocessor to operate it can
be considered fail safe in operation.
Networking
The PLAN system offers the installer a high degree of networking flexibility.
Direct cabled ‘star’ and ‘daisy chain’ topologies can be used. Using the field
upgradeable plug-in Ethernet module, client LAN/WAN infrastructure can be
utilised, as well as a wireless Ethernet (WiFi) option. All of these can be mixed
in a single installation.
As standard, the panel is shipped with the relevant jumpers set for direct cabled
systems, this presumes that XP1Ms are linked together using dedicated twisted
paired cables and connected to the Host PC via an RS422 interface.
Network cable should be minimum 7/0.2mm shielded two twisted
pairs. Recommended cable is Belden 8723 or equivalent. Maximum
cable distance between any two panels is 5,000m.
