1.1
Before you begin
This guide provides programming information for the DMP XR200 Command Processor™ Panel and the XR2400F
Addressable Fire Alarm Control Panel. After this Introduction, the remaining sections describe the functions of each
programming menu item along with the available options. Before starting to program, we recommend you read
through the contents of this guide. The information contained here allows you to quickly learn the programming
options and operational capabilities of the panel.
In addition to this guide, you should also read and be familiar with the following XR200 documents:
• XR200 Installation Guide (LT-0197)
• XR200 Product Specification (LT-0198)
• XR200 Security Command
®
User's Guide (LT-0287)
If you are using the XR2400F Addressable Fire Alarm Control Panel, you should also read and be familiar with these
documents:
• XR2400F Installation Guide (LT-0554)
• XR2400F Product Specification (LT-0517)
• XR2400F User's Guide (LT-0560)
Internal Programmer
The panel contains all of its programming information in an on-board processor and does not require an external
programmer. You can perform all programming tasks through a DMP alphanumeric keypad set to address one.
Programming Information Sheet
Included with each panel are the Programming Information Sheets. These list the various programming prompts and
available options for programming the panel. Before starting to program, we recommend you completely fill out
each sheet with the programming options you intend to enter into the panel.
Having completed programming sheets available while entering data helps prevent errors and can shorten the time
you spend programming. Completed sheets also provide you with an accurate record of the panel's program you can
keep on file for future system service or expansion. The remainder of this Introduction provides instructions for
starting and ending a programming session using the alphanumeric keypad.

Getting Started
Ground Yourself Before Handling the Panel!
Touch any grounded metal, such as the enclosure, before
touching the panel to discharge static.
Remove All Power From the Panel!
Remove all AC and Battery power from the panel before installing
or connecting any modules, cards, or wires to the panel.
Before starting to program the panel, make sure the panel is properly grounded, and also ensure that the AC and
battery power is applied to the appropriate panel terminals. All wiring connections and grounding instructions are
detailed in the XR200 Installation Guide (LT-0197) and the XR2400F Installation Guide (LT-0554).
