Notifier XP6-C Six Circuit Supervised Control Module
The Notifier XP6-C (often searched as XP6C) is a six-circuit supervised control module. It gives intelligent alarm systems supervised monitoring of the wiring to load devices that need an external power supply to operate, such as horns, strobes or bells.
Each module is intended for switching applications involving AC, DC or audio that require wiring supervision. Upon command from the control panel, the XP6-C disconnects the supervision and connects the external power supply across the load device.
Features
- Addressing: the first module is addressed from 01 to 154, and the remaining modules are automatically assigned to the next five higher addresses
- Provisions are included for disabling a maximum of three unused addresses
- Terminals for connection to an external supply circuit that powers the devices on each notification appliance circuit (NAC); one or multiple power supplies or amplifiers may be used
- Short-circuit-protection monitor on each module protects the external power supply against short-circuit conditions on the NAC
- Panel-controlled green LED indicators; the panel can make the LEDs blink, latch on or latch off
Short-circuit handling
When an alarm condition occurs, the relay that connects the external supply to the NAC is not allowed to close if a short-circuit condition currently exists on that NAC. An algorithm is also built in to find shorts while the module is active: the XP6-C closes all circuits that are not shorted so the NAC with the problem can be identified.
SYNC-1 accessory card
The SYNC-1 accessory card adds functionality to the XP6-C when it is used with compatible System Sensor SpectrAlert and SpectrAlert Advance audio/visual devices.
Questions
What loads does it switch? Notification loads that need an external supply, such as horns, strobes and bells, including AC, DC or audio circuits that need wiring supervision.
How many addresses does it use? Six: the first is set from 01 to 154 and the other five are assigned automatically to the next higher addresses.

FAQ
How is the XP6-C addressed?
The first module address is set from 01 to 154 with rotary switches, and the remaining circuits take the next five higher addresses. Up to three unused addresses can be disabled.
Can the circuits be wired Class A?
Yes. It provides six addressable Style B (Class B) or three addressable Style D (Class A) outputs, usable as notification appliance, speaker or telephone circuits.
Where can it be mounted?
One or two modules fit a BB-XP cabinet, or up to six modules mount on a CHS-6 chassis in a CAB-3, CAB-4, EQ Series or BB-25 cabinet.
Does it synchronize strobes?
With the SYNC-1 accessory card, the XP6-C gains added functionality with compatible System Sensor SpectrAlert and SpectrAlert Advance devices.
