Page 8 Hardware Configuration, Continued Setting XA Loop SW1 is a four-position switch used to select the following operational characteristics. See figure Options (SW1) below for an illustration of the switch.  Three Wire / Four Wire (SW1-1). This switch selects whether the XALIC is connected to a three-wire or four-wire loop.
Page 9 Hardware Configuration, Continued Setting Jumper P3, The setting of Jumper P3 determines whether the XALIC card detects and reports Earth faults to Earth Detect the FACP. Earth Detect should only be enabled when the XALIC card is configured as the XA Loop Master.
Page 10: Hardware Installation
Hardware Installation Overview 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.
Page 11 Hardware Installation, Continued Expansion Bay Does The XALIC has a form factor of 4” x 10” (101 x 254 mm), and requires a full-length slot in an Not Contain XPS, expansion chassis. Locate an available slot for the card and use the PDI connector (P4) on the RPS, or SPS But backside of the XALIC card to connect to one of the PDI connectors on the lower row, as shown Backbox Contains...

Page 13 Connecting to the XA Loop, Continued Class B Wiring – To connect the XA Loop Interface Card (XALIC) to devices using Class B wiring, do the XALIC Configured following. as XA Loop Master 1. On TB3 jumper REF A to REF B, SIG A to SIG B, CMD A to CMD B and CLK A to CLK B.
Page 14 Connecting to the XA Loop, Continued Wiring -- XALIC To connect the XA Loop Interface Card (XALIC) as a Slave on the XA Loop, do the following. Configured as XA Loop Slave 1. Route CLK, CMD, SIG, REF and SHLD from the previous XA Device / XA Master to TB3 on the XALIC card.
Page 15 Connecting to the XA Loop, Continued Overvoltage All wiring that leaves a building requires overvoltage protection. Install the Module 2081-9044 Protection Wiring for whenever wire enter or exits a building. Refer to Figure 12 for Overvoltage Protection wiring. XA Loop Refer to the 2081-9044 Overvoltage Protector Installation Instructions (574-832) for specific details regarding the installation of the 2081-9044 modules.
Page 16: Programming The Facp As Xa Loop Master
Programming the FACP as XA Loop Master Overview and This section describes programming the FACP to function as the head end (master) for a loop of Guidelines XA devices connected to the FACP through the XALIC card. When functioning as the head end, the FACP can monitor the status of all devices and can turn XA output devices on or off.
Page 17 Programming the FACP as XA Loop Master, Continued  Overview and XA output-only devices must be at address 245 or below. Any XA output-only devices on Guidelines the loop with an address above 245 must be readdressed before programming.  You must account for all XA devices in the FACP programming.

(The subpoint device type is permanently set.)  Points 1-245. If the device type is TRIAM (i.e., the XA device is an input/output device), then the first subpoint is used for the output and the second point is used for the input.

MLPTIO Device Type Address Mapping FACP IDNet Subpoint to XA Device Mapping Address Subpoint 1 is the input and subpoint 5 is the output for XA Device 246 Subpoint 2 is the input and subpoint 6 is the output for XA Device 247 Subpoint 1 is the input and subpoint 5 is the output for XA Device 248.
Page 20: Programming Facp As An Xa Loop Slave
Programming FACP as an XA Loop Slave Overview The Autocall head end can control physical or logical points on the FACP, allowing the head end to perform a range of functions on the FACP such as on/off, system reset, signal silence, etc. These types of points are called Control points.
Page 21 Programming FACP as an XA Loop Slave, Continued Programming Step 2. Program Device Types and Point Types for FACP Control Points. Use the Control Points FACP programmer to accomplish the following steps: Add the XALIC Card to the job. See the corresponding chapter in the ES Panel Programmer’s Manual (574-849) for information on doing this.

Page 23 Programming FACP as an XA Loop Slave, Continued Programming Control Points Alarm Silence. In the following example, M2-1-1 is a monitor point on the 4100’s XA card. It is linked to XA Device 2 (a switch) on the Autocall system. When XA Device 2 turns ON, the input activates, which executes the following equation.
Page 24 Programming FACP as an XA Loop Slave, Continued Programming Status Use the three-step process detailed below to program a status point. Points Step 1. Identify and Map Addresses. Before programming status points, it may be helpful to list the XALIC status points and the Autocall device numbers, along with the function of the point or device, in a spreadsheet format.
Page 25 Programming FACP as an XA Loop Slave, Continued Programming Status Points Step 3. Writing Custom Control. Status points are intended to turn on or off in response to Custom Control programming and to serve as indications to the Autocall head end that some fire or trouble event has occurred on the FACP.

FACP XA Loop Slave Application Example Overview In this simplified example, a FACP system is added to an existing Autocall installation. The FACP system will provide coverage for a new wing of an existing building protected by the Autocall system. The FACP system will report status to the Autocall head-end panel using the XA Loop Interface Card.
