2X Series Quick Installation Guide
Overview
This document includes quick installation information for your
control panel. For detailed installation information (including
EN 54-13 requirements) and for configuration options, see the
product installation manual.
WARNING: Electrocution hazard. To avoid personal injury or
death from electrocution, remove all sources of power and
allow stored energy to discharge before installing or removing
equipment.
Caution: Equipment damage hazard. This product is sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD). To avoid damage, follow
accepted ESD handling procedures.
Adding the menu inserts
Add the control panel interface menus as shown below.
The inserts are numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4, and are inserted at
the location indicated (with the printed area facing the front of
the control panel).
For evacuation panels, remember to add descriptions for any
output groups assigned to the programmable buttons to
insert 3.
Note: Different versions of insert 3 are provided for fire panels
and for evacuation panels, and each is marked with the
corresponding control panel product code. Be sure to use the
correct version of the insert for your product.
Installing the cabinet
Where to install the control panel
Install the control panel in a location that is free from
construction dust and debris, and immune to extreme
temperature ranges and humidity.
Provide enough floor and wall space to allow the control panel
to be installed and serviced without any obstructions. The
cabinet should be mounted so that the user interface is at eye
level.
Fixing the cabinet to the wall
Fix the cabinet to the wall using five M4 × 30 screws and five
Ø 6 mm wall plugs, as shown below.
1. Hold the cabinet to the wall at the required installation
height.
2. Ensure that the cabinet is level using the built-in spirit level
and mark drill points on the wall.
3. Drill all required holes and insert a 6 mm wall plug into
each.
4. Insert a screw in position (1) and hang the cabinet onto
this screw.
5. Insert screws in positions (2) and tighten.
6. Insert screws in position (3) and tighten.
7. Tighten screw in position (1).

Overview of typical fire system connections using a single Class A loop
Connecting loops and loop devices
For optimal system performance, we recommend a shielded
loop cable, 12 to 26 AWG (0.13 to 3.31 mm²), with 52 Ω (26 Ω
per wire) and 500 nF/km maximum.
Class A loops are supervised for open and short circuits.
Terminate unused Class A loops A (+) to B (+) and A (−) to
B (−). Each Class A loop can support up to 128 devices.
See the product installation manual for Class B loop
connection information.
Connecting inputs and outputs
Caution: The following connection information does not apply
to installations requiring EN 54-13 compliance. If EN 54-13
compliance is required, see the product installation manual.
All inputs and outputs (except 24V AUX) require a 15 kΩ end-
of-line resistor for termination to detect open or short circuits. If
an input or output is not used, install a 15 kΩ end-of-line
resistor across the unused terminals to avoid an open circuit
fault.
Connect input switches to INPUT1 and INPUT2 (62 Ω ≤active
value ≤8 kΩ).
When connecting outputs, observe polarity or install a 1N4007
diode or equivalent to avoid inverted activation issues.
See the product installation manual for input and output
configuration options.
Mains fuse and batteries
Use a T4A-250V mains fuse for both 110 VAC and 240 VAC
operation. Check the product installation manual for 110 VAC
operation requirements.
The control panel requires two 12 V, 7.2, 12, or 18 Ah
rechargeable sealed lead-acid batteries.
For detailed battery requirements, see the product installation
manual.
Configuration
See your product installation manual for detailed configuration
information. The default installer password is 4444.
