Introduction
2.1 Description
The DMP XR6/XR10 Command Processor
®
panels are powerful 12 VDC burglary and fire communicator panels with
battery backup. The XR10 provide nine on-board burglary zones and one on-board 12 VDC Class B powered fire zone.
The XR6 provides five burglary and one fire zone. The fire zone has a reset capability to provide for 2-wire smoke
detectors, relays, or other latching devices. The panels can communicate to one or two DMP SCS-1 Receivers using

The panels can be programmed to operate as either an All/Perimeter system that provides one Perimeter area and one
Interior area, or as a Home/Sleep/Away system that provides one Perimeter, one Interior, and one Bedroom area. The
Bedroom area can include any protection devices the user wants disarmed during their sleeping hours and armed in the
Away mode.

Caution notes
Throughout this guide you will see caution notes containing information you need to know when installing the
panel. These cautions are written with a bold, italicized introductory clause followed by a detailed description of the
caution. See the example shown below.
Always ground the panel before applying power to any devices: The panel must be properly grounded before
connecting any devices or applying power to the panel. Proper grounding protects against Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
that can damage system components.
Whenever you see a caution note, make sure you completely read and understand its information. Failing to follow the
caution note can cause damage to the equipment or improper operation of one or more components in the system.
