STATUS LED
When the XP-3 processor is plugged in and booting up, the Status LED is
lit red, indicating that the operating system is starting up. The Status LED
will then turn green, indicating the system file and drivers are being loaded.
When the light turns off, the processor has finished starting up and is ready
for use. During operation, the Status LED will light green as the XP-3
executes commands or macros.
NET LINK LED
Lit red when connected to an Ethernet network.
RF LINK LED
Blinks red when establishing communication or transferring data via 2.4 GHz
Zigbee RF.
+12VDC POWER LED
Lit red when power is applied to the XP-3 via the 12VDC power supply.
SENSE/RELAY LEDS
Lit red when XP-3 is utilizing the Sense or Relay ports.
VOLTAGE SENSE INPUTS/RTI TRIGGER INPUT
The XP-3 has two voltage sense inputs (+3-24 VDC) that are configurable within
Integration Designer. During the execution of an event, macros can trigger IR
commands, RS-232 commands, relay closure, etc., based on the status of the voltage
sense input.
Connect positive lead from voltage source to Sense In 1 or 2 terminal input and
negative lead to Ground terminal.
NOTE: The SENSE IN 1 terminal can be configured in Integration Designer as an input
for the RTI RM-433 antenna and RTI in-wall keypads. Systems using the XP-3 Control
Processor that will incorporate an RTI 433MHz RF remote control (and the RM433
antenna) or non-Ethernet enabled RTI in-wall controller, should be limited to one
secondary zone that will not be heavily used. (ie. guest bedroom, outdoor area etc).
NOTE: When configured as an RTI trigger input, it does not allow IR pass-through from
external devices and does not support IR receivers.

For contact closure control, connect the A and B contact terminals of a relay to the
desired device.
IR Connecting Block
Each IR output can drive
up to two emitters directly.
More than two emitters

INFRARED EMITTERS
The multi-purpose I/O port (port 1) on the XP-3 is
compatible with industry standard infrared emitters and
infrared repeating systems. Each output port is capable
of driving up to two infrared emitters directly. The use of
more than two infrared emitters requires the addition of
an amplified connecting block. A connecting block can be
wired up to 1000 feet away from the XP-3 using #22 AWG
(minimum) wire.
INFRARED OUTPUT GAIN ADJUSTMENT
The IR output gain can be separately adjusted for each
of the three output ports. The XP-3 is shipped with the IR
gain set to the optimum level for most equipment, and it
should only need to be adjusted if the attached equipment
is not responding reliably. If adjustment is needed, rotate
the IR output controls on the front of the XP-3 clockwise
for higher output power, or counter-clockwise for lower
output power.
VPS-1 SENSOR MODULE
Single or Dual
The multi-purpose I/O port on the XP-3 is compatible with
IR Emitters
an RTI power sensing module (e.g. VPS-1). Follow the
guide included with the module for installation instructions,
and follow the instructions in the Integration Designer
software for programming details.
RS-232 COMMUNICATION MODULES (CM-232)
The multi-purpose I/O port on the XP-3 is compatible with
an RTI RS-232 communication module (e.g. CM-232).
Follow the guide included with the module for installation
instructions, and follow the instructions in the Integration
Designer software for programming details.
