ioXpander-12x4 Module
1. Introduction
This installation guide provides the basic instructions for Visonic's ioXpander-12x4 Module installation scenarios. A
new addition to the PowerMaster-33 E G2 control panel, the ioXpander-12x4 Module is a wired input/output expander
that communicates with the PowerMaster-33 E G2 through the ioXpander-8 module.
ioXpander-12x4 Module Features:
12 wired inputs that enable to connect to 12 H/W zones
4 relay outputs.
Siren output (SRN) and Strobe output (STR)
Front and back cover tamper switches for improved tamper protection
RS-485 bus to communicate with the panel
The ioXpander-12x4 Module is supported by the PowerMaster-33 E G2 only

2. General Guidelines
1. Keep away from all heat sources.
2. Do not expose to air drafts.
3. Do not install outdoors.
4. Avoid direct sunshine.
5. Keep wiring away from power cables.
6. Mount on solid stable surfaces.
IMPORTANT: The ioXpander-12x4 Module MUST BE POWERED
DOWN while wiring the I/Os and when connecting to the RS-485 bus.
This will prevent accidental damage to the device.

  • Page 1 This installation guide provides the basic instructions for Visonic’s ioXpander-12x4 Module installation scenarios. A new addition to the PowerMaster-33 E G2 control panel, the ioXpander-12x4 Module is a wired input/output expander that communicates with the PowerMaster-33 E G2 through the ioXpander-8 module.
  • Page 2 3. Installing the ioXpander-12x4 Module The ioXpander-12x4 Module enclosure provides tamper detection and accessible wiring cavities. 1. To open the front cover: remove screws on the 3. Remove the securing screw and push the sides, place fingers in the opening grove of each tab to release the PCB with the interface.

  • Page 4 4. Configuration  The PowerMaster-33 E G2 can support up to 4 ioXpander-12x4 Modules for a total of 48 wired zones.  Every ioXpander-12x4 Module is connected and registered to the ioXpander-8 module using a RS-485 bus (230000 bps). The ioXpander-12x4 has two LEDs Green Power - Lights continuously when powered.
  • Page 5 The first 8 outputs are reserved for the ioXpander-8 Module. The other 8 outputs (PGM9 – PGM16) can be distributed among the ioXpander-12x4 Module. The installer needs to enroll each PGM output to the required output pin of the required ioXpander-12x4 Module. For more information refer to section 6: “Enrollment Process.”...

The loads that can connect to the relay outputs must be limited to a maximum of 12 VDC, 8A or 24 VDC, 4A! Example of ioXpander-12x4 Modules connected to external power supply with 12 hour backup battery.

  • Page 8 Note: The ioXpander-12x4 Module has no Location or Device Settings that need programming. Note: Only after the ioXpander-12x4 Module is enrolled can its Inputs (Step 6) and Outputs (Step 7) be enrolled. Step 6 - Pre-enroll an HW-Zone to a ioXpander-12x4 Module's Input To define a HW-Zone onto a ioXpander-12x4 Module: On the Keypad, select the “ADD NEW DEVICE”...
  • Page 9 Cautions-  If an enrolled ioXpander-12x4 Module does NOT communicate with the PowerMaster-33 E G2 (whether it is powered OFF, not connected, or for any other reason), the following is displayed on the KP-250 screen: "Expander IOV E0x MISSING", it must be deleted at once by the Installer.
