Configuration of the XT-9100 is achieved by using a personal computer with GX-9100 Graphic Configuration Software (GX Tool) supplied by Johnson Controls. When the serial interface of the XT-9100 is connected directly to the N2 Bus (Bus 91), the GX-9100 will download and upload configurations over the N2 Bus (Bus 91).
For full details of the hardware configuration, refer to the XT-9100 Hardware Technical Bulletin (LIT-6364040). Configuration An XT-9100 combined with expansion modules provides the following configurations, either: eight analog inputs/outputs, or eight digital inputs/outputs, with digital counters associated with the digital inputs, or eight analog inputs/outputs and eight digital inputs/outputs, or sixteen digital inputs/outputs, with digital counters associated with the...

Software Configuration Software configuration involves the setting of all the Items of the extension module to values which correspond to the intended application. Typically, use the GX Tool to configure a system, and the SX Tool to troubleshoot. To use these tools, refer to the GX-9100 Software Configuration Tool for Windows User’s Guide (LIT-6364060) and the SX-9100 Service Module User’s Guide (LIT-6364070).

XT-9100 Configuration Settings Via the GX Tool The I/O type and map details are automatically generated by the GX-9100 Graphic Configuration Software when all I/O data for extension modules has been entered. It is then downloaded into the XT-9100 directly or via the DX-9100 and XT-Bus.
Note: The data base in the XT-9100 has been designed to accept most Analog Input Configuration Each analog input is defined and configured by the following parameters: Tag name (optional, GX-only) Measurement units (for RTD inputs) Enable square root Alarm on unfiltered value Input signal range Alarm limits Filter time constant...

Via the SX Tool The high limit is at Item HIAn (RI.91, RI.99, RI.107, RI.115, RI.123, RI.131, RI.139, and RI.147), the low limit is at Item LOAn (RI.92, RI.100, RI.108, RI.116, RI.124, RI.132, RI.140, and RI.148). These Items may also be set by a Supervisory System and will always be set by a DX-9100 Controller.
An XT-9100 can accept up to 16 digital inputs, which will be considered Digital Input active when driven to a common digital ground. The first eight digital Configuration inputs are connected to XP1 and the next eight digital inputs to XP2. Each digital input is defined and configured by the following parameters: Tag name (optional, GX-9100 only) Input type...
DI: Counter The digital input transitions of XP1 are counted as follows: Prescaler A count transition occurs when the number of positive transitions of the digital input (DIn) equals the value of the prescaler (PCn). The Pulse Counter (CNTn) counts the count transitions (n = 1-8). Note: Counters are only available in the XP1 location.
