Protection Zones
10.1  Terminals 13–24
Zones 1 to 8 (terminals 13 to 24) on the XR200 panel are all grounded burglary zones. For programming 
purposes, the zone numbers are 1 through 8. Terminals 13 to 24 provide connection as listed below.
  Terminal  Function  Terminal  Function
  13  Zone 1 voltage sensing  19  Zone 5 voltage sensing
  14  Ground for Zones 1 & 2  20  Ground for Zones 5 & 6
  15  Zone 2 voltage sensing  21  Zone 6 voltage sensing
  16  Zone 3 voltage sensing  22  Zone 7 voltage sensing
  17  Ground for Zones 3 & 4  23  Ground for Zones 7 & 8
  18  Zone 4 voltage sensing  24  Zone 8 voltage sensing
The voltage sensing terminal measures the voltage 
through a 1k Ohm End-of-Line resistor to ground. 
Dry contact sensing devices can be used in series 
(normally-closed) or in parallel (normally-open) with 
any of the burglary protection zones.
10.2  Operational parameters
Each protection zone detects three conditions: open, normal, and short. The voltage and resistance 
parameters for each condition are listed below:
      Condition  Resistance on zone    Voltage on positive terminal
  Open  over 1300 ohms  over 2.0 VDC
  Normal  600 to 1300 ohms  1.2 to 2.0 VDC
  Short  under 600 ohms  under 1.2 VDC
10.3  Zone response time
A condition must be present on a zone for 500 milliseconds before it is detected by the XR200 panel. Ensure 
detection devices used on the protection zones are rated for use with this delay. The zones can also be 
programmed for a fast response delay of 167 milliseconds.
10.4  Keyswitch arming zone
Using a keyswitch on an Arming type zone allows you to arm and disarm selected areas without having to 
enter a user code. For more information refer to the XR200 Programming Guide, LT-0196.
Powered Zones for 2-Wire Smoke Detectors
11.1  Terminals 25–26 and 27–28
Two resettable Class B (Style A) 2-wire powered zones are provided on terminals 25 through 28 on the panel. 
For programming purposes the zone numbers are 9 and 10. The UL compatibility identier for the zones is A.  
11.2  Zone Information
When using 725 Zone Expansion modules, use UL Listed 6.8k Ohm EOL resistors. The UL compatibility 
identier for the zones using 725 Zone expansion modules is B. When using 715 Zone Expansion modules, use 
UL Listed 3.3k Ohm EOL resistors (Model 309). When using all other zone expansion modules, use UL Listed 
1.0k Ohm EOL resistors (Model 310). The UL compatibility identier for the zones is A. 
Do not mix detectors from different manufacturers on the same zone.
Caution: Performing a Sensor Reset will momentarily drop power to the devices on Zones 9 and 10. The 
panel will view these zones 10 as “Open” while the power is dropped.
