1.1 Before You Begin
About this Guide
This guide provides programming information for the DMP XR6/XR10 Command Processor Panel. After this
Introduction, the remaining sections describe the functions of each programming menu item along with their
available options. Before starting to program, we recommend you read through the contents of this guide. The
information contained here allows you to quickly learn the programming options and operational capabilities of the
XR6/XR10 panel.
In addition to this guide, you should also read and be familiar with the following XR6/XR10 documents:
• XR6/XR10
User's Guide (LT-0226)
• XR6/XR10 Programming Sheet (LT-0212)
• XR6/XR10/XR20/XR40 Installation Guide (LT-0229)
Internal Programmer
The panel contains all of its programming information in an on-board processor and does not require an external
programmer. You can perform all programming tasks through a keypad connected to the system.
Programming Information Sheets
Included with each panel is a Programming Information Sheet. This lists the various keypad prompts and available
options for programming the panel. Before starting to program, we recommend you completely fill out the sheet
with the programming options you intend to enter into the panel.
Having a completed programming sheet available while entering data helps prevent errors and can shorten the time
you spend programming. A completed programming sheet also provides you with an accurate record of the panel's
program you can keep on file for future system service or expansion. The remainder of this Introduction tells you
how to start and end a 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.
Before you begin programming, make sure the panel is properly grounded and AC and battery power is applied to the
appropriate panel terminals. All wiring connections and grounding instructions are detailed in the
XR6/XR10/XR20/XR40 Installation Guide (LT-0229).
Initializing the Panel
When programming a panel for the first time, or rewriting the entire program of an existing panel, use the
Initialization function described in section 2. Initializing clears the panel's memory of any old or incorrect data.
Accessing the Programmer
To access the programmer function of the XR6/XR10:
1. Place a slotted screwdriver across the two J16 reset jumpers for two seconds.
2. Remove the screwdriver.
3. Enter the code 6653 (PROG) into the keypad.
4. Enter your Access Code (if prompted to do so).
5. The keypad displays: PROGRAMMER.
You are now ready to start programming the panel. Pressing the COMMAND key scrolls you through the programming
menu items listed in section 1.3.
