MXL/MXL-IQ to FireFinder XLS Total Migration Solution


Intro

Siemens is in the process of developing a MXL to FireFinder XLS total migration solution


Topics

Why migrate existing installations?

Advantages of Siemens MXL to XLS migration solution

What MXL installations should be targeted for migration?

How to estimate a migration opportunity


Why start the rollout now?

Customer awareness of the ability to migrate

Protection of your installed base

Sales Cycle can take up to 18 months

Customer needs time to plan for upgrade

Must align with customer budget cycle / funding ability


Why Migrating MXL systems is a good business opportunity

It is estimated that over 70,000 MXL systems have been sold since MXL was introduced in 1992

Early installed systems are prime candidates for migration

Minimizes competition via cost and time effective solution

Profitable business and a win-win solution (sales outlet and end user)


The components used in legacy fire alarm systems become difficult to secure, resulting in higher maintenance costs

Replacement parts become more expensive or unobtainable

Fire alarm system down for long periods of time.

Siemens provides a cost effective migration solution to modernize the fire alarm system in phases while staying within the customer’s budget

FireFinder XLS uses more advanced technology

FireFinder XLS is an enabler for future technology

How do you convince a customer to modernize a system?


Features of the MXL to XLS migration solution

MXL Line Card (MLC) that allows XLS to communicate to existing ALD devices

Enclosure adapters that allow XLS components to fit into existing MXL and MXL-IQ backboxes MSE-2, MSE-2R, MME-3, MME-3R, MBR-2, MLE-6, MLE-6R, MSE-3M, MSE-3MR, MSE-3L, MSE-3LR

Enclosure adapters that allow SSD to fit into remote annunciator backboxes RCC-1, RCC-3, RCC-3R, RCC-1F, RCC-3F, RCC-3FR

Ability to import MXL device custom message database into XLS programming tool which reduces programming time


Advantages

Competitive cost advantage for replacement of installed MXL systems due to ability to keep existing field devices and wiring

Less downtime for fire alarm system during migration

Ability to use existing backbox which eliminates an additional cut-out in the wall

Reduced programming time, reduces labor costs

Gets the customer’s solution accomplished faster than any competitor’s approach

Advanced system with improved response time that is easier to maintain


MXL Configurations to Target

Single node MXL

MXL-IQs without high levelVESDA interface

Single node MXL with transponders

Single node MXLV Voicewith transponders

Networked MXLs

MXL to XLS interpanel logic is not supported (Proper Planning is required)


MXL with XLDs

XLD Loops are required to be replaced with DLCs and H series devices

Please consult Florham Park to ensure DLC and MLC circuits can be run in the same conduit

DLC could cause noise on the MLC circuit with distances over 2000 ft when Unshielded, Untwisted wire is used!


MXL Configurations to Not Target at this time

MXL-IQs with high level VESDA interface

Networked MXLVs with RCMs

Reuse of Wire and other Considerations

Consult XLS Wiring Compatibility Guide P/N 315-034786 (found on Tech Support website) to ensure existing wiring can be reused.

Shielded analog audio riser cannot be used for DNET communication between DAC-NETs.

DNET communication requires 2 pairs of wire

XLS(V) NAC End of Line (EOL) Resistor Values are different than MXL(V)

MXL nodes with over 2500 addressable points need to converted to networked XLSs


Estimating the Enclosures

A Global PMI in a REMBOX2 may be required to satisfy a customer request in order to provide Function Keys or maintain the functionality of an existing MKB-5 multiline display.

PMI-INT is required if Spanish, Portuguese or French overlays are needed


XL3 and System 3 Enclosures

There are no adapters for XL3 and System 3 Enclosures
