MPIO Ports (IR out, RS-232, Sync in) IR Connections

Ethernet Expansion Port

MPIO’s (Multi Purpose Input/Output ports)

-Each MPIO can directly drive up to 4 IR Emitters-Direct injection of IR to rear panel of devices-Use with Video Sync or Voltage Sense modules-Use for RS-232 communication with CM-232 module

RS-232 Ports

-Category 5 with RJ-45 termination (568b)-(8) RJ-45 to DB-9 adapters included-Bi-directional RS-232 capable

Sense Inputs

-Sense contact closure-Sense voltage trigger-Upon sensing, events can be automatically triggered from the XP-8

Relay/Trigger Outputs

-Configure as contact closure or voltage trigger-5 or 12 +VDC, 100mA current capability-Normally open or normally closed-When configured as a trigger, A= +VDC, B= GROUND

Infrared Terminals

-Terminal: +12VDCUsed to power external IR or RF receivers

-Terminal: GNDGround reference for any device connected to any terminal (SIGNAL IN, +12VDC, HIGH OUT)

-Terminal: SIGNAL INIR or RF system trigger code input

-Terminal: HIGH OUT200mA IR output to power an external connecting block or IR blaster

Ethernet Port

RJ-45 port allows connection to LAN to download systemfiles to the XP-8

USB Ports (rear)

Host ports for external devices (future use)

RTI COM Port

RJ-45 port allows connection to a Zigbee transceiver (ZM-24) module, supporting full two-way communicationwith compatible RTI handheld controllers

Expansion Port

RJ-45 port provides a connection for IR signals for a CB-4connecting block, or RS-485 serial communication within-wall controllers, or expansion devices like the RCM-12

Display

- Sensing status of VPS-1/SPS-1 power sync modules- Status of each “Sense” input- Current state (open, closed) of each relay- Current firmware date/version- Time/date- On-screen diagnostics

XP-8 Processing Rules

-XP-8 will send standalone IR codes in the order they are received from the controllers

-6 macro engines allow for the execution of up to six macros simultaneously

-Once an IR command begins, it runs to completion

-If a macro sends an IR code, it will wait at that step until the IR generator is free

-Once a macro begins to transmit IR codes, that macro engine has exclusive use of the IR generator until it sends an instruction OTHER than IR (flag test, relay, delaying, etc.)
