This section describes installing the XALIC in the following three situations:
Expansion Bay Contains XPS, RPS, or expansion SPS
and
Backbox Contains TIC or Master
Controller.
Expansion Bay
Does Not
Contain XPS, RPS, or expansion SPS but Backbox Contains TIC or
Master Controller.
Backbox does not have PDI or XPS, RPS or expansion SPS.
If the expansion bay in which the XALIC is installed contains an XPS, RPS, or an expansion SPS
and
the backbox contains a Transponder Interface Card (TIC) or Master Controller, the XALIC
can receive both power and communication via the PDI. No connections to the XALIC’s RUI or
AUX Power connectors are required.
Important Note:
The power supply (XPS, RPS, SPS) must be located in the same expansion
bay as the XALIC.
The XALIC has a form factor of 4” x 10” (101 x 254 mm), and requires a full-length slot in an
expansion chassis. Locate an available slot for the card and use the PDI connector (P4) on the
backside of the XALIC card to connect to one of the PDI connectors on the lower row, as shown
in the figure below. Secure the card to the Expansion Chassis using the supplied hardware.
Note:
Jumper P1 and Jumper P2 must be installed in the rightmost positions (pins 1-2).
This is the default position. Refer back to Figure 4 for the location of these
jumpers.
Figure 6. Mounting to the Power Distribution Interface
If the expansion bay in which the XALIC is installed
does not
contain an XPS, RPS, or expansion
SPS, but the backbox contains either a TIC or Master Controller, the XALIC cannot receive power
via the PDI but it can use the PDI to communicate with the TIC or Master Controller. In this
situation, the XALIC must be wired to an AUX Power source that is UL-listed for fire protective
signaling use.
