2. Premier Elite 8XP-W & 32XP-W
Texecom has developed a new method of wireless security signalling based on the concept of
mesh networking. Mesh-networking is the process whereby every single wireless device is
capable of receiving and retransmitting any signal from any other wireless device on the network.
The size, scalability and range of the entire system are extended as wireless signalling is no longer
limited by point-to point communications. The range of a RICOCHET™enabled wireless system is
greater than previous systems, with multiple devices capable of relaying messages to and from
even the most remote locations in a building. Each RICOCHET™enabled device provides
signalling routes to and from control panels. If the wireless communication between devices
weakens, the RICOCHET™network ‘self-heals’ and automatically re-routes communications via
alternate RICOCHET™enabled devices. The reliability of the wireless system increases as more
RICOCHET™devices are installed. SignalSecurity™ further enhances network reliability with each
device already aware of the number of communication paths available to it.
The 8XP-W &32XP-W expanders can be used on any premier control panel; however certain
features and functions are dependent on the version of panel firmware as detailed in the table
below. To determine the firmware version of your control panel press /4 on the keypad.

System Design Considerations
To ensure correct setup and operation of the Wireless Network it is important that the following
procedures are used when learning and placing devices.
Multiple Expander Systems Ricochet MT2
When using multiple expanders great care should be taken when designing the system. Each
expander should be treated as its own wireless network; it is not possible for devices to hop from
one wireless network to the other, it is also not possible for expanders to pass wireless signals
from devices not assigned to them and nor can the expanders talk to each other.
Learning Devices
All devices should be learnt before they are placed in their final location. The expander should be
in commission mode, please see page 44.This will ensure that they are registered on the receiver
or control panel, and that Mesh Networks and routing are established correctly. Please refer to the
relevant section in this document to Learn Devices to the system.
Learning Premier Elite SmartKey™
On Ricochet MT2 systems Premier Elite SmartKey™ should only be learned AFTER all devices
and expanders are in their final location, this is critical on larger systems where multiple expanders
are being used
Devices should be at least 30cm’s away from the receiver when being learned.
Placing Devices
Once all of the devices have been learnt, they will need placing in their desired location, this
should be done by installing devices closest to the expander first and then working outwards so
that the last devices installed are those furthest away from the expander.
Make sure to install devices with the expander in Commission mode. See page 44.
Devices also have a commission mode which will indicate a secure and valid path of
communication to the receiver. See page 44.
You should wait at least 15 minutes after installing the last device to make sure routing has been correctly
established between all system devices.
For maximum reliability and system integrity avoid long and thin set-ups.
Devices are capable of hopping through up to two other devices, or a maximum of three hops.

Mounting the Expander
Remove each screw cap by inserting a flat bladed screwdriver into the slot and turning anti-
clockwise, excessive force is NOT required. Remove both of the cover screws and put them in a safe
place along with the screw caps. Gently pull the cover away from the base applying slight pressure
to the sides at the top of the expander if required. The front cover should now be off.
Mount the expander using at least two appropriate countersunk screws (no larger than No. 8). A
keyhole slot has been provided to assist mounting and aid levelling.
If required a screw should be placed into the knockout on the rear of the expander to enable the
rear/wall tamper.
Wiring
It is strongly recommended that the system is completely powered down (mains and battery) before
wiring the expander. Connect the expander to the control panel using 4-core cable as follows:
Expander
Control Panel
Description
+ + +12V Supply
- - 0V Supply
T T Transmit Data
R R Receive Data

Premier Elite 8XP-W & 32XP-W Installation Manual
12 INS467-4
The networks are made up of four terminals incorporating power and data. To ensure correct
operation, all four terminals on the device must be connected to the corresponding terminals on the
control panel or previous device.
Expanders can be connected using 4-core cable. However, it is recommended that 6 or 8-core cable
is used as the spare cores can be used to ‘Double Up’ on the power connections if needed.
Standard 7/0.2 alarm cable can be used for most installations. However, under certain conditions it may be
necessary to use screened cable.
Selecting an Address
Each expander must be assigned a different address using the DIL switches located on the PCB.
The table below shows the expander addressing:

Never set two expanders on the same network to the same address. Expanders are factory set to address 1.On
legacy panels the expander will occupy 1 x Expander slot on the control panel, as well as the Network Receiver
slot.
Ricochet MT2 Expander Addressing
Introduction
The address range and switch position will depend on which combination of expanders are being
used. Each 32XP-W takes up 4 address slots on the control panel network, however the network
slots are virtual until devices are assigned to available zones. It is possible that if a 32XP-W is being
used at Address 1, but only 16 devices have been used, Address 3 & 4 are available for hardwired
8XP's or 8XP-W's.
Please see some examples of mixing different types of Expanders on various Elite panels and the
addressing requirements.

6. Programming
It is highly recommended that you upgrade the Panel Firmware to the latest version to ensure full
compatibility; however the system is backwards compatible as detailed in the table on page 5.
It is not possible to upgrade Premier panels to Premier Elite firmware.
Premier EliteV2.xx 24/48/88/168 & 640 + Ricochet™ MT2
Option Switches
In this mode only option switch 3 should be on.
Introduction
The firmware upgrade now requires that Ricochet™ devices are learned through the Zone Setup
Menu, and Premier Elite SmartKey™ are learned through the User Setup menu, the "Configure
Radio" menu in Engineer's Utilities is now redundant and should not be used.
Learning Devices
To learn a device to a Zone select the Zone from the Zone Setup Menu, Zones that are capable of
having a Ricochet™ device learnt to them will be displayed as follows:-
  
 
Fig 1
Fig 1indicates the pre-assigned zone number, the expander being used and the device slot on the
expander.
Once a device has been learnt the display will be as Fig 2:-
  
 
Fig 2
If you are unsure if a zone already has a device learned to it, you can go to the menu as in Fig 1,
press and then if a device is already learnt the display will look like Fig 2, if not then it will
look like Fig 3

Fig 3
Please see the diagram on the next page to learn devices.
Deleting Devices
To delete devices from the expander is the same as learning them; choose the zone you wish to
delete, and follow the procedure to learn the device, when the screen shows “Learning” press .

Device Modes of Operation
Always Awake
This mode should only be used on devices which are required to signal at all times and is the default
setting for the Impaq Contact-W and Impaq Plus-W.
Auto Mode
When in Auto Mode, devices poll at 15 minute intervals. Following activation, devices will not
transmit the same activation again for a period of 3 minutes.
Hybrid Mode
Hybrid mode is used to control the reporting functions for devices. When in the mode devices are
asleep when the system is set, and are woken up by the control panel at the point of arming. When
the system is disarmed the devices will be put back to sleep. This mode of operation is the default
mode for XT-W, QD-W & DT-W.
On very large systems (100 devices +) a small delay may be experienced when arming the system, this is normal
as the expanders on the system wake up the relevant devices.
Premier Elite DT-W should ALWAYS be used in Hybrid mode, failure to do this will have an adverse affect on
battery life.
Expander O/P Mode
Expander O/P modes are for future use and should not be used with any of the devices listed above.
Zone Types & Attributes
These are all the same as before and detailed instructions for programming can be found in INS176-
8 or later.

Introduction
Premier Elite SmartKey™ are now learnt and all functionality managed through the “Setup Users”
Menu.
Ricochet™MT2 and Premier Elite Series V2 firmware upgrades add additional capabilities to the
management of Premier Elite SmartKey™. In multiple expander systems it is now possible to
choose which zones (and therefore expander) the Premier Elite SmartKey™ will use for its routeing,
LED and Aux functions can also be changed within the “Setup Users” menu.
All users on the system can have a Premier Elite SmartKey™ a TAG and a code, or any
combination of them.
This section only deals with Premier Elite SmartKey™ learning and routeing, all other user
programmable options can be found in INS176-8 Premier Elite Series Installation Manual or later.
Great care should be taken when using large numbers of Premier Elite SmartKey™, only one Premier Elite
SmartKey™ per expander can be used by the system at any one time, and on Multiple expanders systems, or
large sites, functionality should be checked in all areas of the site where the device may be used.
Premier Elite SmartKey™ Routeing
Premier Elite SmartKey™ should only be learned to the system AFTER all devices have been
learned and placed in their final location. Whilst it is possible to learn at any point during the
programming of the system, learning and testing the functionality of the Premier Elite SmartKey™
after all devices have been placed will ensure that the Premier Elite SmartKey™ performs as
expected, and works in locations where the user would expect it too.
Route By
The Route By function allows you to select which Zones (and therefore expander) the Premier Elite
SmartKey™ will use on the system for its routeing. This should be selected BEFORE the device has
been learned.
In the examples below Fig 1 shows the zones associated with Expander 1, which is a 32XP-W, and
Fig 2 shows Expander 2 which is also a 32XP-W, when using 8XP-W there willobviously be less
devices that the Premier Elite SmartKey™ can use.

The key is used to select this menu and the key used to select which expander and
associated zones will be used
Once a Premier Elite SmartKey™ has been learned the key will show which zones are being
used for routeing. It is not possible to alter this once learned. To change the routeing the Premier
Elite SmartKey™ should be deleted and the process started from the beginning.

Once the 16 slots on a XP-W are taken up, the learn process will fail and display 'No spaces left'.
In either of the Premier Elite SmartKey™ menu displays, any Premier Elite SmartKey™ that logs onto the system
will cause the menu to change to that Premier Elite SmartKey™ - a handy way of finding out which user a
Premier Elite SmartKey™ in your hand belongs to!

When using the 8XP-W it is only possible to learn devices to slots 1-8 on the expander. Slots 9-32 will still be
shown in Ricochet Monitor, and on the keypad, however no devices can be learned to them.
Option Switch Settings
For this version of firmware option switches 1,2 & 4 should be OFF.
Configuring Radio devices
Up to 32 wireless devices of any combination can be learnt on to the system. The number of
SmartKey™ is limited to the maximum number of users (i.e. 50 0n the Premier Elite 48).
On the 8XP-W the maximum number of devices including Smartkey™ is 8.
Wireless devices can then be mapped on to the system along with conventional detectors.
The top line on the display shows the serial number of the device and also the status i.e. Active,
Tamper etc.
The bottom line of the display shows the signal strength and also which zone/user the device is
mapped to.
Signal strength should be greater than 30.
Signal strength is only displayed when in commission mode. When not in commission mode the keypad will
display 255.
The signal range is between 0 and 99
In the case of devices that are hopping the display on the panel keypad shows the average of the hopped signal
strengths.
Follow the instructions on the next page to learn devices to the system, once complete follow the
instructions in the relevant control panel manual to programme zone type, attributes and user
permissions. Place devices in their final location ONLY after they have been learned to the system.
