Table 1 summarizes the input and output specifications for the XPS. Specifications Table 1. Input and Output Specifications AC Input Specifications 120 VAC @ 60 Hz, nominal (102-132 VAC @ 60 Hz) 4100-5101 4 A Max 220/230/240 VAC @ 50 or 60 Hz 4100-5102 2 A Max...
Step 1. Mounting the XPS Guidelines The XPS is designed to be mounted on the rightmost top and bottom positions of the PDI in a 4100 expansion cabinet. Before mounting the XPS, follow these guidelines: • Disconnect power to the system or remove power at the breaker before mounting or installing anything in the unit.

Step 2. XPS Configuration Overview XPS configuration consists of setting the address switch as described in this section. Setting the Address The XPS device address is set via DIP switch SW1, which is a bank of eight switches. From left to right (see Figure 3, below) these switches are designated as SW1-1 through SW1-8.

Step 3. Internal Wiring Overview The XPS gets its power from the power distribution module (PDM). The PDM takes power directly from the AC mains and the two backup batteries, and distributes power to each bay in the cabinet. Figure 4, below, shows the PDM connecting to a host FACP with two XPSs. INCOMING AC POWER BTRY...

Step 3. Internal Wiring, Continued Power Distribution The Power Distribution Module (PDM) connects to the XPS in each bay. One PDM is used per Module Connections back box. Use the instructions below to properly connect the PDM to the XPS. Connect the 734-012 Harness from the top connector on the PDM to the XPS.

Step 4. XPS Field Wiring, Continued Overview The XPS provides three outputs for notification appliance circuits and four inputs for auxiliary power circuits. This section describes all types of wiring from the XPS to 4100-compatible appliances. Guidelines Review the following guidelines for NACs before you begin NAC field wiring. •...
Step 4. XPS Field Wiring, Continued Class A NAC Wiring To connect the XPS to appliances using Class A wiring, read the following instructions and refer to Figure 6, below. Route wire between 12 and 18 AWG from the B+ and B- outputs on TB1 of the XPS to the appropriate inputs on a peripheral notification appliance.
Page 15
Step 4. XPS Field Wiring, Continued Class B NAC Wiring To connect the XPS to appliances using Class B wiring, read the following instructions and refer to Figure 7, below. Use NAC1, NAC2, or NAC3 to route 12 to 18 AWG wire from B+ and B- on the XPS to the first appliance.

Step 4. XPS Field Wiring, Continued Auxiliary Power The XPS can receive auxiliary power appliances via the dedicated auxiliary power tap (TB2). If Wiring additional power is needed, any of the three NAC outputs can be used as auxiliary power inputs. Figure 8, below, shows how the XPS should be wired for auxiliary power at any given terminal.

Step 5. Installing the XNAC Overview The 4100-5115 Expansion NAC Module (XNAC) is an option board that provides three NACs in addition to the three NACs already on the XPS. The XNAC plugs onto the XPS. If you are not installing an XNAC, skip this section and continue on to “Step 6: Troubleshooting.” The XNAC The XNAC has three NACs, each rated at 3 A.
Step 6. Troubleshooting Overview This section describes the messages that may appear on the 4100 display when using the XPS. Trouble messages appear on the left as titles, and possible causes are listed to the right in the text. AC Power Loss Voltage has fallen below an acceptable level.
