INTRODUCTION Use the Model XLS-MLE6(R)-ADPT Adapter Kit from Siemens Industry, Inc., to
upgrade existing MXL Systems installed in Model MLE-6(R) backboxes to FireFinder-
XLS/Desigo Fire Safety Modular/Cerberus PRO Modular Systems.The XLS-MLE6(R)-
ADPT Adapter Kit consists of an adapter plate, inner door and outer door.The XLS-
MLE6-ADPT (S54430-C9-A1) inner and outer doors are black; the XLS-MLE6R-ADPT
(S54430-C9-A2) inner door is black and outer door is red.The XLS-MLE6-ADPT and
the XLS-MLE6R-ADPT are identical in all other ways and will be referred to in the
remainder of this document as XLS-MLE6-ADPT.
The adapter plate installs over the existing studs in an MLE-6(R) backbox with the
#1/4 x 20 hex flange nuts supplied and provides studs on which to mount three
CAB-MP mounting plates (P/N 500-633012) and two PTB power termination boards
(P/N 500-033390).
The outer door consists of the door frame and three removable panels. Each remov-
able panel is secured to the door with #10-32 nuts. The removable panels may be
clear (OD-LP), blank (OD-BP/-R), or vented (OD-GP/-R) depending on the application.
The OD-BP-R and OD-GP-R panels are red. The outer door is attached to the backbox
by hinge pins and secured to the backbox by a keyed latch.
The inner door has three openings in it for the installation of an operator interface and
other modules. There are eight threaded studs around each opening on the inner
door. These threaded studs allow equipment installation on the door. The equipment
is secured by #10-32 nuts. The inner door is permanently hinged right, is attached to
the backbox by screws, and is secured to the backbox by a swell-action latch.
The XLS-MLE6(R)-ADPT is for indoor use only in dry environments.
With this conversion, the maximum battery set that can be used in the backbox is 33
AH (model BTX-1). If larger batteries are required, use either a BB-55 or CAB-BATT
battery box.
When converting an MXL to an XLS/Desigo Fire Safety Modular/Cerberus PRO
Modular system, it may be necessary to use the XLS-EXT-CABLE-PKG (S54430-K1-
A1).This kit includes a 58 inch 60-pin Data Bus cable, a 58 inch 6-pin CAN Bus cable
and a 20 inch 12AWG ground wire.
To convert an MLE-6(R) backbox from an MXL System to an XLS/Desigo Fire Safety
Modular/Cerberus PRO Modular component system, you must first disassemble the
MXL and then assemble the XLS/Desigo Fire Safety Modular/Cerberus PRO Modular.
This two-part procedure is described in detail on page 2.

DISASSEMBLY OF MXL SYSTEM
Remove all system power, first battery and then AC.
1. Remove and discard the outer door and the hardware used to secure it in
place.
2. Disconnect and remove the modules from the inner door.
3. Remove all modules from the backbox, making sure to mark all wires.
4. Remove the MPS power supply and batteries from the backbox. Save the
mounting hardware for later use.
ASSEMBLY OF XLS/DESIGO FIRE SAFETY MODULAR/CERBERUS PRO MODULAR SYSTEM
The three parts of the XLS-MLE6-ADPT are installed separately. The adapter plate is
installed first, followed by the inner door and then the outer door.
Adapter Plate The XLS-MLE6-ADPT adapter plate has 18 holes in it that fit over the studs in the
MLE-6 backbox in only one way.
1. Place the XLS-MLE6-ADPT over the studs in the backbox and secure it in
place with the six #1-4 x 20 hex flange locknuts supplied in the locations
marked “A” shown in Figure 1.

2. Three CAB-MPs can be mounted on the XLS-MLE6-ADPT using the studs
marked “B” in Figure 1.
3. Install the required CC-5/CC-2 system cardcage(s), PSC-12 power supply,
optional PSX-12 power supply extender and PTB power termination board
after careful consideration of NEC Article 760 for separation of power
limited and non-powered limited wiring. Use the hardware provided with
those modules to mount them to the CAB-MP mounting plate. Refer to the
CC-5/CC-2 Installation Instructions, P/N 315-033035, the PSC-12 Installation
Instructions, P/N 315-033060, and the PSX-12 Installation Instructions, P/N
315-034120.
4. There is room on the bottom of the XLS-MLE6-ADPT to mount up to two
PTBs on the studs marked “C” and “D” in Figure 1. Refer to the PTB
Installation Instructions, P/N 315-034877. The stud marked “D” is a lug for
grounding the AC input. Remove the ground lug before mounting the PTB.
After installing the PTB, be sure to reinstall the ground lug.
5. There is room in the bottom of the enclosure for a battery set of up to 33 AH.
6. System cards can be installed in the CC-5/CC-2 cardcage(s), as required.
Install the Inner Door Install the inner door by following the steps listed below.
1. Place two of the eight #8-32x5/16 screws provided in the top and bottom
holes on the right-hand side of the backbox.
2. Tighten the screws just a few turns leaving a 1/8-inch gap between the
head of the screws and the backbox.
3. Slide the inner door into position under the screws.
4. Make certain the flange at the left-hand top of the inner door is seated in
the slot in the backbox and the swell action latches located near the top and
bottom of the inner door are seated in their respective holes in the backbox.
(Refer to Figure 2.) Press the latches down to secure them in place, adjust-
ing the door as needed so that it seats securely in the enclosure.

WIRING In compliance with NEC Article 760, all power limited fire protective signaling
conductors must be separated a minimum of ¼ inch from all of the following wiring
located within a control panel:
• electric light
•power
• Class 1 or non-power limited fire protective signaling conductors
To meet these requirements, the following guidelines must be observed when
installing modules and wiring to this control panel.

Siemens Industry, Inc.
Building Technologies Division
A6V10328630_en--_b8
When installing power limited field wiring, the installer must comply with NEC article
760, which states:
The fire alarm power-limited circuits are installed using Types FPL, FPLR, FPLP or
permitted substitute cable, provided these power-limited cable conductors extending
beyond the jacket are separated by a minimum of 0.25 in. (6.35 mm) or by a noncon-
ductive sleeve or nonconductive barrier from all other conductors.
If energy limited cable or equivalent is not used within the enclosure, then the following
guidelines do not apply. In that case,be sure to follow standard wiring practices.
Wiring Entering Enclosure Non-Power Limited Wiring
Wiring entering the enclosure from the bottom and right side of the backbox is
considered non-power limited wiring. Wiring must be in the shortest route and must
not overlap any other wiring.
Power Limited Wiring
Wiring entering the enclosure from the top and the left side of the backbox is
considered power limited. Wiring must be in the shortest route and must not overlap
any other wiring.
Use the existing lances in the backbox to dress the wires as needed to maintain
separation of power limited and non-power limited wiring.
Use the existing lances on the adapter plate to dress the wires as needed to main-
tain separation of power limited and non-power limited wiring.
Install Wiring The primary mains input must have a separate or dedicated circuit breaker. Wire in
accordance with local codes and Article 760 of NEC.
1. Remove the knockouts in the backbox for the entry of field wiring.
2. Pull all field wiring into the backbox. Do not dress the wiring until the
location of all the equipment is known.
3. Install the wiring from the external power source to the approximate
location of the power supply.
