Introduction
1.1 Before You Begin
About this Guide
This guide provides programming information for the DMP XR5FC and XR5SL Fire Command™ Panels. After
this introduction, the remaining sections describe each programming menu item function and its available
options. The XR5FC and XR5SL panels contain all programming information in an on-board processor and do
not require an external programmer.
Reading the Contents
Before starting to program, we recommend you read through the contents of this guide. This information
allows you to quickly learn the programming options and operational capabilities of the XR5FC and XR5SL
panels. In addition to this guide, you should also read and be familiar with the following XR5FC and XR5SL
documents:

The remainder of this Introduction tells you how to start and end an XR5FC/XR5SL programming session.
1.2 Getting Started
Ground Yourself Before Handling the Panel! Touch any grounded metal, such as the enclosure, before
touching the panel to discharge static.
Remove All Power From the Panel! Remove all AC and Battery power from the panel before installing or
connecting any modules, cards, or wires to the panel.
The XR5FC and XR5SL Fire Command™ panels must be completely installed before beginning programming.
Make sure the panels are properly grounded and the AC and battery wires are connected to the correct
panel terminals.
