NOTIFIER XP10-M — a ten-input addressable monitor module that interfaces a control panel with normally open contact devices such as pull stations, security contacts or flow switches.
The XP10-M packs ten monitor points into one module, which makes it the efficient way to bring a group of dry-contact devices onto an intelligent loop from a single equipment location. The first address is set from 01 to 150 and the remaining modules are automatically assigned to the next nine higher addresses; provisions are included for disabling a maximum of two unused addresses. The supervised state of each monitored device — normal, open or short — is sent back to the panel. A common SLC input serves all ten modules and the initiating device loops share a common supervisory supply and ground, but otherwise each monitor operates independently of the others. Each module has panel-controlled green LED indicators, and the panel can make them blink, latch on or latch off. Mounting hardware is included, and the module uses removable plug-in terminal blocks. To ensure proper operation this module should only be connected to a NOTIFIER intelligent fire alarm control panel.

Installation notes
-
Class A halves the point count: the module gives ten addressable Class B circuits, or five addressable Class A circuits. Decide the class before allocating addresses.
-
Shipped in the Class B position: the XP10-M arrives configured for Class B; remove the shunt for Class A operation.
-
Addresses run in a block: only the first address is dialed — the other nine follow it consecutively. Leave a clear block of ten addresses free on the loop, and remember that a maximum of two unused addresses can be disabled.
-
Alarm current is significant: 55 mA with all ten LEDs solid on is a large draw compared with a single-input module. Include it in the SLC power budget rather than treating the module as ten small loads.
-
Cabling: power-limited circuits must employ type FPL, FPLR or FPLP cable as required by Article 760 of the NEC.
-
UL against EN54 ratings: the temperature and humidity figures differ by application — 32°F to 120°F and 10–85% RH for UL, -10°C to +55°C and 10–93% RH for EN54. Quote the UL figures on North American submittals.
-
Enclosure required: the module is a board that mounts on a CHS-6 chassis or in a BB-XP, BB-25, CAB-4 Series or EQ Series cabinet — order the enclosure separately.

FAQ
How many circuits does the XP10-M provide?
Ten addressable Class B circuits or five addressable Class A circuits. It ships set for Class B; remove the shunt for Class A.
How is it addressed?
The first address is set from 01 to 150 with rotary switches, and the other nine follow automatically. Up to two unused addresses can be disabled.
Which panels and protocols does it support?
NOTIFIER intelligent fire alarm control panels in FlashScan or CLIP mode.
Is an enclosure included?
No. Mounting hardware is included, but the module mounts on a CHS-6 chassis or in a BB-XP, BB-25, CAB-4 Series or EQ Series cabinet, ordered separately.
