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-C Six Circuit Supervised Control Module is intended for use in an
intelligent alarm system. Each module is intended for switching applications
involving AC, DC, or audio, which require wiring supervision. A common SLC
input is used for all modules. 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 automatically 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 module also has
panel controlled green LED indicators. The panel can cause the LEDs to blink,
latch on, or latch off.
In order to synchronize strobes, horn/strobes, and speaker/strobes, a SYNC-1
accessory card (sold separately) must be used with the XP6-C. See the SYNC-1
installation manual for details on how to install.
Each module has terminals for connection to an external supply circuit for
powering devices on its NAC. Each supply must be power limited and its volt-
age/current limits must be at or below those specified. There is a short circuit
protection monitor for each module. This is provided to protect the external
power supply against short circuit conditions on the NAC.
