XLS80e Fire Alarm Control Panels
1 Introduction
This manual provides recommended procedures
for the successful configuration of a complete
Honeywell XLS80e Series integrated Fire Control
System (including repeater panels). The
procedures also apply for XLS80e Series
stand-alone Fire Control units.
The XLS80e Series intelligent fire alarm
controllers are designed for use with
Honeywell’s range of addressable analogue
sensors, control and monitoring modules and
addressable call points. A unique signalling
protocol is used, with digital address and
control signals and analogue pulse width
monitoring for the reply data from devices.
The serial communications interface operates
under RS485 protocol. It enables the
connection between control panels and
repeaters.
1.1 Associated Documents
This manual should be read in conjunction with
the following documents:
a. XLS80e Series Installation &
Commissioning Manual

2 Power On/Start Up
To power up the system from a completely
powered-down condition:
1 Connect the two leads (A) from within the
panel to the two 12 V sealed lead-acid
batteries and then fit one end only of the
supplied interlink (B).
2 Connect and switch on the mains supply.
3 Connect the interlink to the remaining
terminal - but see item a. below.
After a few seconds the Status: NORMAL
display appears, indicating that the panel is
now ready to accept panel configuration
instructions. If the display is too dark to read,
adjust the contrast (see Section 3.3.2.1).
Be advised that....
a. If the battery connections are not completed
within 60 seconds of the mains supply
being switched on, the panel will indicate a
charger/battery fault. If this occurs:
1 Press the MUTE BUZZER pushbutton to
silence the buzzer (access level 1 or 2,
depending upon panel configuration).
2 After all necessary connections are
completed, press the RESET pushbutton
to clear the fault condition (access level 2).
IF BATTERIES ARE NOT CONNECTED WITHIN
60 SECONDS OF POWER-ON:
ALL FAULT INDICATIONS ARE CANCELLED
8
XLS80e Fire Alarm Control Panels

March 2007
b. If the panel has not been configured with
any sensor or module data, i.e. the normal
system status at initial power up, the panel
displays ‘*UNCONFIGURED*’ unless it is
part of a network, in which case it displays
‘NORMAL’.
Powering up a network - special considerations
Master/Slave network
The following is recommended:
i When configuring a panel (either directly
or using the Offline Support Tool), first
disconnect the panel from the network.
When the COMMS FAIL message is
displayed (may take up to 2 minutes for a
Slave), press MUTE BUZZER to stop the
buzzer.
ii When all panels have been configured,
remove power from all of them. Connect
the Master panel to the network - set the
termination link on its RS485 PCB to the
‘ON’ (lower) position if it is not already so
configured (see Section 6 of the XLS80e
Series Installation and Commissioning
Manual).
iii Power-on just the Master panel. Wait until it
reports COMMS FAIL. Use MUTE BUZZER
to mute the buzzer. W ait one minute.
iv Connect and power-on each Slave panel
and Repeater in turn. There is no time
restriction on doing this. When all the
panels have been powered-on, wait one
minute, then press the RESET pushbutton
at the Master panel. The network should
stabilise (i.e. no error messages or buzzers).
v If the site arrangement does not require that
a termination link be set at the Master (see
Section 6 of the XLS80e Series Installation
and Commissioning Manual), fit the
termination links at the correct panels and
then set the link at the Master panel to the
‘OFF’ (upper) position. This can be done
with the system powered-on.
XLSNET peer-to-peer network
When all panels have been powered-up, allow
time for the network to settle. When no new fault
messages are being generated, press RESET .

3 Panel Configuration Overview
This section gives a brief guide to the methods
for configuring the XLS80e Series panels.
3.1 Where to Access the Configuration
Actions
The panel can be configured at one of the
following:
a. The panel, using its controls and indicators.
This is the slowest method, so the
manufacturer recommends that you only
use this method to perform small-scale
operational amendments after the panel is
fully commissioned. Refer to Section 3.3.
b. Off-line, using a Personal Computer (PC,
e.g. a laptop) running the Off-line Support
Tool. The updated configuration is
subsequently uploaded to the panel via its
internal RS232 port. Refer to Section 3.4.
At the start
The Access 3 passcode is required to configure
the panel. Refer to Section 3.5.
At the finish
A ‘Confirm Changes’ prompt is displayed. The
changes you have made are not permanently
stored in the panel’s memory unless you press
to select ‘confirm’. If you press to select
‘cancel’, the changes are lost.

3.3 Using the Panel Controls and
Indicators
All of the configuration operations described in
this manual can be done using the panel
pushbuttons and Liquid Crystal Display (LCD),
with no external equipment required.
The panel remains ‘on watch’ during the
configuration sequence, and will therefore
respond appropriately to any fire or fault
conditions that arise.
The manufacturer recommends that you keep
a secure copy of the system configuration on a
PC as a backup, in case of difficulties in the
configuration sequence.
3.3.1 Pushbuttons
OPERA TING PUSHBUTTONS
CHANGE TABS - Scrolls through the tabbed
displays. Refer to Section 4.2 for further
information.
RESET - Restores normal operating status
when all alarm conditions have been removed.
Note: The other operating pushbuttons are not
used during configuration. Their
operation is described in the XLS80e
Series Operating Manual (997-474).
CURSOR AND NUMERIC PUSHBUTTONS
- Used to move around the LCD
menus. When the panel status is normal and if
the printer is fitted, advances the printer paper.
Used to: select menu options, select quick
methods of dis/enablement and walk test
cancellation, control the event log display , select
loop device parameters for edit, display existing
time-of-day programs, create a new Control
Matrix entry and select characters during text
editing.

3.4 Using the Off-line Support T ool
This is a means of preparing the configuration
data, using an optionally-supplied software tool
which you can use without any connection to
the panel:
i. Save the prepared data to your PC hard disk.
ii. When the panel is ready to accept the
configuration data, simply connect it to your
PC, for the final data transfer to be made.
The XLS80e Off-line Support T ool is a complete
package for off-line configuration preparation. It
is supplied with all necessary panel configuration
instructions, consequently no further details are
given here.
This software package is available from
HONEYWELL or your supplier (Part Number:
020-558-100).
3.5 Passcodes
A passcode is required for all configuration
functions. You will be asked for the passcode
at the appropriate time (Sections 4.4.1 and 12.1
give examples). There are three access
passcodes:
Access 2 - Permits operation of the panel
pushbutton controls and provides access to
all menus except the Configuration menu.
It can be overridden by the panel keyswitch.
Note: Some menus have options which can
only be accessed using an Access 3 or
Access 3A passcode; these options are
described in Section 12.
Access 3 - Provides access to the
Configuration menu. Most operations
described in this manual require this
passcode.
Access 3A - Certain operations (changing
passcodes, and panel settings) require this
passcode.
Default passcodes are supplied with the panel.
These can be changed and the manufacturer
strongly recommends that you do so once
commissioning has been completed (see
Section 8 for default passcodes and the means
of changing the passcodes from these defaults).
Passcodes are not required for off-line
configuration using a PC, but they are required
when uploading or downloading configuration
data using this method.

3.6 Learn Devices on Loops
The panel scans the loops and detects what
devices are fitted. This can be done on an
unconfigured panel. Section 5.3 describes how
to start, run and end a configuration learn.
There are two learn methods:
a. Auto-Learn. Loop device decisions are made
without the need for user intervention. Refer
to Section 5.3.2.
b. Manual Learn. Prompts the user each time
a new or changed device is detected. Refer
to Section 5.3.3.
Limitations on the Number of Devices
The XLS80e Series Control Panel design allows
for the connection of up to 198 loop devices per
analogue loop; i.e. up to 99 sensors and 99
modules. The maximum number of devices per
panel is:
a. 1584, if the Enhanced Loop Interface Board
(ELIB) is used for loops 3 to 8.
b. 512, if the Loop Interface Board (LIB) is used
for loops 3 to 8.
T o comply with EN54-2 in the event of a system
fault, a maximum of 512 sensors and/or MCPs
should be connected to the control panel across
those analogue loops that are not connected
to an ELIB. This number includes all
conventional zone detectors and/or MCPs
connected.
If the number of sensors and/or MCPs connected
to a loop exceeds 32, then isolators MUST be
used to segregate parts of the loop. This will
ensure that a short or open circuit will not cause
the loss of more than 32 sensors or MCPs. For
the XLS80e Series, do not place more than 25
loop devices between isolators (20 if FET
isolators are used).
There may be a further restriction, depending
on the types of sensor used, because of drive
limitations of the isolators. HONEYWELL
provide a PC-based tool to simplify loop loading
calculations. Contact the Te chnical Support
Department or your supplier for further
information.

Limitations of the Auto-learn Method
If the auto-learn method is used on an
incomplete system it will give the false
impression that the system is fully operational.
In such cases, the auto-learnt data MUST be
checked carefully against the system
specification.
During the auto-learn procedure, input
module logical types are set to defaults.
Modules not conforming to the defaults must
be re-configured using the Manual Learn or
Configure Individual Device procedures.
3.7 Configure Group of Devices
On a configured panel, this configuration
method allows a group of devices at consecutive
addresses to be deleted or all set to the same
type.
Refer to Section 5.2.
3.8 Configure Individual Device
This configuration method requires the user to
select each loop device and set all parameters
and conditions, e.g. sensitivity, time-of-day,
device text, etc. appropriate to it.
It can also be used to add further details to the
configuration resulting from the auto-learn
method.
Refer to Section 5.1.
Note: Sensitivity and alarm verification delay
recommendations are given in
Section 13.
Caution - a false indication
of a fully-functional system
is given if the Auto-learn
procedure is used on an
incomplete system.
Input module types are
set to defaults during the
Auto-learn procedure
and may require manual
re-configuration.

3.9 T ext Editing
There are three types of text that can be entered
and edited:
a. The panel or site name.
b. The zone description.
c. The device location text, which is shown on
the display when the system status is not
normal (i.e. alarm, test etc.). The device
description is also used at the printer, if
fitted.
The text is entered and edited from a text editor
which uses the LCD and the panel pushbuttons.
Refer to Section 6.
For panel and zone descriptions, the text editor
is invoked from dedicated menu options
(Sections 6.4 and 6.3 respectively). For device
location text it is invoked during the Configure
Devices on Loops procedure (Sections 5.1.2.3
and 5.1.4.3) or Virtual Point Configuration
procedure (Section 15).
3.10 Control Matrix
This very versatile system allows you to define
exactly which outputs (bells, etc.) are to be
activated depending upon which inputs
(sensors, etc.) have given a fire indication.
The capacity of the system is 512 matrix
entries.
Certain auxiliary functions may be specified
using the Control Matrix.
Refer to Section 7.
<Entry 1 input> activates: <Entry 1 output>
<Entry 2 input> activates: <Entry 2 output>
<Entry 3 input> activates: <Entry 3 output>

3.11 Time-of-Day
This facility allows panel functions to be
modified depending upon the time of day . There
are three major applications:
a. Altering the sensitivity of sensors at certain
times of day - see Section 5.1.2.7.
b. Making some actions in the Control Matrix
(e.g. a delay) apply only at certain times of
day - see Section 7.6.2.2.
c. Cancelling all disablements on the panel at
certain times of day (not EN54-2 compliant)
- see Section 11.7.
Note: A Control Matrix entry can be used to
control disablement and enablement
functions, independent of the CANCEL
DISABLE function (see Section 7.7).
A typical Time-of-day program consists of one
or two daily periods specified by start and end
times, with an optional alternative for weekends.
Up to seven such programs can be in operation
in any one panel.
These programs run completely independently
of each other. Any particular sensor sensitivity ,
or Control Matrix entry , may be modified only
according to one of the programs.
Full details on Time-of-day program editing are
given in Section 9.
3.12 Setting the Clock
This facility allows:
a. The date and time to be adjusted.
b. The clock running speed to be adjusted.
c. The start and end dates of Summer Time to
be selected.
Refer to Section 10.
3.13 Panel Settings
For a number of panel functions, various options
are available e.g. Pulsing Sounder Modes,
Access Level for MUTE BUZZER etc, Relay
Circuits SILENCE Option. Some options are
temporary , most are permanent.
Refer to Section 11.
EN54-2: 9.1.2
Disablement and
re-enablement MUST be
a manual operation.

3.14 System Networking
The XLS80e Fire Control system is designed
so that control panels can work either as standalone units or networked with other panels.
When networked, each panel supervises its
own detection system of up to eight loops of
sensors and modules and functions
independently of all other panels.
A communication system enables events at
any panel to be relayed to other panels. This
causes appropriate annunciations and actions
at those panels.
Network Programming
The XLS80e Series panel can be used with one
of two networks:
a. Master/Slave network. Refer to Section 14
for further information.
b. XLSNET peer-to-peer fault-tolerant network.
Refer to Appendix 3 for further information.
Local Codes of Practice
Master/Slave network: The existence of network
communications is not, normally, intended to
replace the essential functions of the individual
panels (considered as isolated systems) but
to supplement and extend the facilities offered.
This means that each panel must be configured,
independently of the others, to comply with the
appropriate Code of Practice in force in the area
of the installation (i.e. in respect of the activation
of alarm devices in response to an Alarm of
Fire). This compliance must be maintained at
all times, even when communication with other
panels is suspended.
The Master/Slave
network does not
provide the transmission
path integrity required

3.15 Delays
Either the sounders or the fire alarm routing
equipment (remote fire outputs) which is used
to summon the fire brigade can be delayed:
a. To activate sounders immediately but delay
the remote fire outputs, use the Day/Night
Modes Configuration Option
(Section 11.19). The delay may be
extended to allow investigation. MCPs are
normally configured to override any delay.
b. T o delay sounders but activate the remote
fire outputs immediately, use the Control
Matrix to put an output delay on modules of
type BELL (Section 7.6.2.2). The delay
must then be enabled by the Operator (see
997-474, Operating Manual Section 7.5).
MCPs are normally configured to override
any delay .
3.16 Virtual Point Configuration
Up to 64 Virtual Input Points and up to 512
Virtual Output Points can be configured. They
are used with external systems (e.g. a Voice
Alarm panel) with which they communicate via
an RS232 port. They must be placed in a zone;
they then become possible inputs to or outputs
from the Control Matrix. Further information is
given in Section 15.

4 The Display - Tabs, Events
and Menus
4.1 Introduction
4.1.1 Status: NORMAL
The Status: NORMAL display appears when:
a. No alarm or test conditions exist, and
b. No menus are being accessed.
4.1.2 Tabs
When conditions other than Status: NORMAL
exist, the LCD displays event data. More than
one type of data may be available for display
at any one time (eg, Fire Alarms, Fault s, Menus
etc.). When this occurs, the types of data
available are identified by tabs at the bottom
of the display .
4.1.3 Events
Fire Alarms, Pre-alarms, Faults, Disablement s,
Tests, Evacuate mode and Auxiliary input
activations are shown on Event displays. A
Fault event display is shown.
4.1.4 Menus
Menus displays are arranged in a heirarchy,
the top of which is a User Menu from which
other menus are accessed.

4.2 Tabs
When tabs are displayed, use the CHANGE
TABS key to scroll through the tabs and thus
display the corresponding data.
The tabs are (in descending order of priority):
EXTINGUISHING (if about to release;
otherwise priority is below FIRE)
FIRE
TECH. ALARM
PRE-ALARM
FAULT
DISABLE
TEST
EVACUATE
AUX
MAINT (access level 3 only unless Maintenance
Urgent)
USER (at access level 2) or
SERVICE (at access level 3)
The tabs are displayed in this order from left
to right. All the tabs display events except for
the USER and SERVICE tabs, which display
menus. The current tab is that without a line
above it.
Note: If there is insufficient room to display all
the tabs, the ones at the right (those with
the lowest priority) are omitted.
Use ZONES IN ALARM to go directly to the
FIRE tab without scrolling through the other
tabs. If there is more than one zone in alarm,
subsequent operations of the ZONES IN
ALARM pushbutton scroll through these
zones.
Note: If the FIRE tab is present but not
selected, and for 20 seconds none of
the panel pushbuttons are pressed, the
FIRE tab is then selected automatically .
Note: If the SERVICE or USER tab is selected,
and for 2 minutes none of the panel
pushbuttons are pressed, the tab is
deselected automatically and all
passcodes are cancelled (except the
access level 2 passcode when the
keyswitch is set to the horizontal
position).

4.3 Event Displays
When a fire alarm, pre-alarm, fault,
disablement, walk test, evacuation, or auxiliary
input activation (if logging is configured)
occurs, an event display replaces the Status:
NORMAL display .
Note: FIRE, FAUL T , DISABLEMENT, or TEST
LEDs illuminate (also ZONE LEDs, if
fitted) as appropriate.
Example event displays are shown at the left.
In general, to move through the displays:
a. If more than one zone is affected by the
event, use the and arrows to scroll
through the zones. For FIRE events these
arrows scroll through device data; ZONES
IN ALARM scrolls through the zones.
b. If more than one device is affected, use the
and arrows to scroll through the
devices and device descriptions.
If a FIRE event occurs and the CHANGE T ABS
pushbutton is used to display other data, the
display area is reformatted so that the top two
lines continue to display fire information.
Further details about the event displays and
their operation are given in the XLS80e Series
Operating Manual, 997-474.
Aux T ab
At the end of the list of activated AUX inputs,
the AUX tab displays details of unconfigured
loop devices, should the panel find any during
polling. These are only shown on the panel
local to the devices. If multiple devices are
found, use the and pushbuttons to scroll
through the list of unconfigured devices (and
through the list of activated AUX inputs). In the
example, 1/3 means that ‘L3 S79’ is the first
of a total of three unconfigured devices found
(on all loops).
Note: Modules: the only types that may be
displayed are MON, CTRL and ZMX.

By default, the panel does not scan for
unconfigured devices when the panel is
completely unconfigured (i.e. no sensors or
modules on any loop), however scanning can
be enabled by the user.
There is an optional, configurable upper limit
on the number of devices to be scanned. When
this number is reached, scanning can be
continued if extended by the user. The default
upper limit is 50 devices.
Press the pushbutton (level 3 access) to
display options to hide or show these devices
for access level 1 or 2 users, and to disable/
enable scanning for unconfigured devices.
a. If there are no devices left to show as a
result of HIDE, the AUX tab disappears
(assuming there are no AUX inputs active).
b. RE-SCAN causes the panel to clear all
indications of unconfigured devices, scan
the loops and then store the list of any
devices still unconfigured. This allows
devices that were present on the loop but
have since been removed to be identified.
The process takes up to about five minutes.
c. DISABLE clears the indicated devices from
the AUX tab and prevents the panel from
detecting further unconfigured devices. To
re-enable the scan, use the Log/Display/
Print menu as described in Section 12.4.
Note: Entry of access level 3 passcode for any
reason (except to display the above
menu from the AUX tab) always results
in SHOW ALL, unless the scan for
unconfigured devices has been
disabled. Any loop device configuration
operation always leads to a RE-SCAN.
If the configured upper limit is reached, the
option to extend the scanning is provided.
Note: The number of devices listed may be
slightly higher than the set limit (because
of synchronisation effects).
The DISABLE option resets the upper limit to
50 (this is the only method or reimposing a
limit if ‘0’, i.e. no limit has been selected).
