Advanced Electronics MXPro4 Mxp-007 User manual

Relay Output Cards
Features
The Mxp-007 and Mxp-008 are internal peripherals for use with the MxPro 4 panels. The units connect
directly to the panel’s motherboard and provide either 2 or 8 individually programmable 1-Amp rated, volt free,
clean contact outputs.
Each output can be individually assigned to an output group to provide full support for the MxPro 4 system’s
DynamiX zoning facilities. In addition, each output has a number of programmable operational parameters
including fail-safe, can-silence, allow walk test and delayed operation.
These features not only aid commissioning and cut down on expensive ancillary hardware but also allow the
system to be easily configured to provide full support for the more complex cause and effect configurations
using standard products.

1.4 External Wiring
The picture below shows the terminal block
positions for each relay output.
Relay positions 1 and 2 provide NO / NC
changeover contacts. Relay positions 3 –8
provide NO contacts only (Mxp-008 Only).
Install cables suitable for the application and
degree of fire protection required. These circuits
are SELV type.
If additional knockouts are required on the Mx-
4200 or Mx-4400 then use the deeper back box
(Mxm-020) or use the Termination Enclosures
(Mxm-028 or Mxm-029) as appropriate.

All electrical wiring installation work should be carried out in
accordance with the code of practice applicable in the
country of installation.
To maintain electrical integrity of the SELV wiring on the
output lines all SELV wiring should be segregated from the
LV mains wiring and be wired using cable with insulation
suitable for the application.
To minimise the effects of EMC interference all data wiring
circuits should be wired with a twisted pair of conductors with
a cross sectional area suitable for the loading conditions.
In areas where cabling may come into contact with high
frequency interference, such as portable radio transceivers
etc. the output wiring cable should be of a twisted pair
construction within an overall screen. The screen should be
terminated to one of the dedicated earth studs available in
the panel (refer to panel manual for positions).
NB: Minimum / Maximum cable size for all connections is
limited to 0.35mm² / 2.5mm² (22-14AWG).

2 Program the Relay Outputs.
Each relay output can be independently programmed in the same way as other outputs on the panel.
On the PC configuration software the outputs are under the “On-board” devices and shown as “Panel O/C-1”
through to “Panel O/C-8”.
O/C-1 and O/C-2 only for the Mxp-007
O/C-1 to O/C-8 for the Mxp-008
By default, the relays are all in the same Output Group, 199, but this can be changed as required. In the example
below, the relays have been assigned to groups 180 to 187. These output groups can be programmed as required.
For a more detailed explanation of assigning output groups refer to PC Net manual, see document reference 680-
021.
The properties that can be assigned to each relay output are depicted in the boxes on the “Point Details” section.
By ticking the appropriate box, the relay will take on those assigned properties.

2.1 May Silence:
If this parameter is ticked, the relay will behave in a similar manner to a sounder circuit output. It will energise as
defined by their “Output Group” setting and de-energise when the “Silence” key is pressed.
2.2 Inverted Output:
If this parameter is ticked, the relay will behave in a manner similar to a “Fault” relay output and will be normally
energised in its quiescent state and de-energised when its “Output Group” setting is activated.
2.3 May Walk Test:
If this parameter is ticked, the relays assigned with this parameter will be allowed to energise when a “Walk Test”
with ring bells option is enabled.
The relay will energise for a short time, along with the bells / sounders, when a walk test alarm is generated.
2.4 Investigation:
If this parameter is ticked, the relay will follow the programmed output stage 1 delay timer and delay its operation
while the cause of the alarm is investigated.
