4 XR150/XR350/XR550 Intrusion/Access/Fire Detection Specification
4.0 GENERAL COMPONENT REQUIREMENTS
4.1. Component Enclosure
Housings; power supply enclosures, terminal cabinets, control units, and other component housings, collectively referred
to as enclosures shall be so formed and assembled as to be sturdy and rigid. If sheet steel is used in the fabrication of
enclosures, it shall be not less than an 18 gauge door with a 20 gauge box frame. Where exposed pins, the hinges shall
be of the tight pin type or the ends of hinge pins shall be tack welded to prevent ready removal. Doors having a latch
edge length of less than 24 inches shall be provided with a single lock. Where the hinged door latch edge is 24 inches or
more in length, doors shall be provided with three-point latching device with lock; or alternatively with two locks, one
located near each end. For SCIF and High Security applications an attack proof enclosure with proper tampers listed for
use with the XR150/XR350/XR550 with Network and Encryption shall be used.
4.2 Electronic Components
A. All system electronic components shall be solid-state type, mounted on printed circuit boards. Light duty relays and
similar switching devices shall be solid-state type or electromechanical.
B. The panel shall have an over current notification LED that lights when devices connected to the Keypad Bus and Loop
Expansion LX-Bus(es) draw more current than the panel is rated for. When the over current LED lights, the Loop
Expansion LX-Bus(es) and Keypad bus are shut down.
4.3 Control Unit
A. A battery test shall be automatically performed to test the integrity of the standby battery. The test shall disconnect
the standby battery from the charging circuit and place a load on the battery. This test shall be performed no more
than every 180 seconds.
B. The control unit shall be capable of operating and supervising notification appliance devices as well as addressable
initiating detection devices and an integrated supervised dual line digital communicator.
C. Control unit must be “Flash ROM” updatable, and program must be held in non-volatile RAM. The panel shall be able to
function while the update is in process.
D. Control unit shall be capable of operating using an optional built in Encrypted Alarm Router for SCIF (Sensitive
Compartmented Information Facility) application that is certified by NIST (National Institute of Standards and
Technology) for 128-bit or 256-bit AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) Encryption communications.
E. The optional built-in Encrypted Alarm Router shall be capable of compliance with ICD 705 Chapter 7 Intrusion
Detection Systems (IDS) and UL 2050 standards.
4.4 Remote Annunciators
A. The system shall support a maximum of sixteen (16) supervised remote annunciators with the identical capabilities,
functions and display layout. Operation of the remote annunciators shall be limited to authorized users by the use of a
code or key.
B. The remote annunciators shall be capable of operating at a maximum wiring distance of 15,000 feet from the control
unit on unshielded, non-twisted cable.
4.5 Control Designations
Controls shall be provided to ensure ease of operation of all specified characteristics. Where applicable, clockwise
rotation of controls shall result in an increasing function; controls, switches, visual signals and indicating devices, input
and output connectors, terminals and test points shall be clearly marked or labeled on the hardware to permit quick
identification of intended use and location.
4.6 Test Function
A. The system shall include a provision that permits testing from any alphanumeric keypad. The test shall include standby
battery, alarm bell or siren, and communication to the central station.
B. The system shall include a provision for an automatic, hourly, daily, weekly, thirty (30) day, or up to sixty (60) day
communication link test from the control panel installation site to the central station.
C. The system shall include a provision for displaying the internal system power and wiring conditions. Internal monitors
shall include the bell circuit, AC power, battery voltage level, charging voltage, panel box tamper, phone trouble line
1, phone trouble line 2, transmit trouble, and network trouble.
