APPLICATION DATA

The XLS10 System provides smoke and fire detection signaling for small buildings. It supports up to 8 Initiating Device Circuits (IDCs) and 2 Indicating Appliance Circuits (IACs). You may display IDC alarm zones on remote annunciators.

The system uses a unique two level alarm response design which permits combining circuit functions on the same pair of wires.

There is excellent support for standard sprinkler systems. For waterflow Circuits, you may mix alarm and normally open supervisory contacts on the same circuit. waterflow annunciates as alarm, and supervisory signals display and start the supervisory response sequence. You may define waterflow Circuits with or without a 15 second retard. The retard feature allows the use of non-pneumatic waterflow switches reducing device costs.

Each Base Panel provides two IACs which are independently programmable for signal rate and silence operations. The circuits support both audible and visual signal appliances. Four amperes is available for signaling.

You may configure the optional Relay / City Tie Module to activate on alarm, supervisory, trouble, or during the system reset sequence. The reset option lets you send a reset to another panel.

Agency Listings are UL for NFPA Installation Standards 71 and 72 and ULC.

DESCRIPTION

The XLS10 Fire Alarm System supports job specific applications using site programming and a few multi-function option modules. You may optimize your system and your costs for virtually any small life safety application.

When you first power up, an XLS10 panel automatically programs itself for the modules present. In many cases, the default factory program will satisfy job requirements.

When customization is necessary, you use the panel controls to make changes without the use of special tools. Changes take about five minutes or less. Non volatile memory provides permanent program storage.

Each base panel has a main board and power supply mounted on a display sub-assembly. Quick open, captive fasteners allow easy mounting of the complete sub assembly for wall box installation.

A two zone IDC Module provides zone expansion. The module mounts to the display sub assembly and a ribbon cable connects it to the previous module. Convenient zone label cards slide beneath a membrane to identify each zone.

You may configure all circuits for Class A using Converter Modules. These modules simply plug to the back of the base panel board or expansion modules.

A Relay / City Tie Module lets you add extra ancillary contacts and City Tie Connections. Using plug jumpers you configure each module for alarm, supervisory, trouble, or reset operation. For City Tie connection, jumpers select the module for a Shunt Contact, Reverse Polarity, Remote Station, or a Local Energy Municipal Loop.

A user may disable the operation of the Relay / City Tie Module. This feature supports live testing without shutting down fans or signaling the Fire Department. As well, you may start-up fans to exhaust smoke from a building with the panel in the alarm state.

Each Base Panel has two IDCs, two IACs, form "C" alarm and trouble contacts, and an auxiliary power source.

There are two versions of Base Panel. The smaller has space for 3 expansion modules. The second has space for six. Each version will support up to 3 IDC Modules (total 8 zones). Remaining expansion space may have up to 3 Relay / City Tie or Annunciator Driver Modules.

Common Control switches include Trouble Silence, Alarm Silence, and Reset.

Common Control LEDs display Power On, System Trouble, Zone Disabled, Alarm Silenced, Alarm, and Ground Fault.

Each IAC has a yellow trouble LED.

An insert card displays Common Control identifications. Reversing the card displays programming functions.

Each IDC has a tricolor zone LED and a Enable / Disable switch. The LED displays fire alarms red and troubles as slow flashing yellow. Supervisory signals appear fast flashing yellow for active, and steady yellow when initiating contacts restore.

A user may disable a zone by simply pressing the Zone Enable / Disable switch. The enable operation lets a user view the state of a disabled circuit before it is enabled. This prevents sounding signals in the event the circuit is accidentally in alarm.

Alarm verification reduces false alarms and installer callbacks. With alarm verification, the system confirms the presence of smoke before sounding an alarm. To verify a smoke detector�s operation, the zone is reset for 8 seconds, followed by a delay period of 17 seconds. At the end of this period and for sixty more seconds, if any circuit alarms, the system starts the alarm sequence.

You may program the Auxiliary Power Output to turn off during the reset operation. This supports four wire smoke or beam detectors.

A one-person system test mode allows a single installer to conduct a complete checkout. Signal test codes identify alarm zones either on the signals, or, for silent tests on a hand held testing device. The test feature also annunciates troubles and ground faults. After each test, the panel resets the zone for the next device test.

Field wiring terminals are large and up front using regular Slot or Philips screw drivers.

XLS10 Cabinets are available in light gray or red finish for semi-flush or surface mounting.

 

PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES

Using the common control switches, you may program to job specific requirements. The initialization process automatically identifies all modules and defaults IDCs as non verified alarm, and IACs as audible signal, continuous operation. It takes less than five minutes to redefine circuits and functions.
