Hardware
1. Kick Start Jumper
When connecting to a battery, without 16VAC connected, the X-Series will
not power up until the kick start jumper has been shorted for a second. This
feature has been included so that if the battery voltage starts fluctuating and
goes below 10.5 volts, without AC, the panel switches off, stopping the
alarm from entering any undesirable states that could compromise the
integrity of the system. When AC is applied the alarm will power up
automatically.
2. Default button & 3. Panel Status LED
To default the panel, physically remove power from the unit and press down the
default button. Replace power whilst still holding down the button. Wait until the
panel status LED flashes once and then release the button.
The status LED indicates the condition of the operating system.
4. Serial Output
The serial output is for connecting the voice module, serial communicators and direct download device.

Five positively triggered outputs that can supply 80mA of current.
6. Onboard expander connection
The X-Series can be expanded via expanders. Zones 9 to 16 are added by plugging the onboard
expander onto the PCB via this connector.

8 pin connect Standoff mounting hole
7. X-Series Connectors
The above figure shows how the X-Series connectors are laid out. Each connection is briefly discussed,
but more detailed information can be found at the end of the manual in appendix 1. Please note that
devices, especially between different manufacturers, are different and the manuals should be thoroughly
read and understood before attempting installation.
7.1 AC Power
The X-Series Alarm Panel requires 16V AC to be connected
to the AC connector on the board. The minimum
recommended transformer is a 16V 32VA, but the
recommended transformer is a 16V 40VA transformer.
7. 2 TX
The Tx connection can supply enough power for radios up to 15 watts.
NOTE: Please use cable with a minimum of 0.5mm copper core
depending on the distance between system and radio transmitter.
IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Hardware
7
7.3 Aux 12V
The X-Series Alarm Panel can supply 750mA of power to all buswired peripherals, including keypads, expanders and remote
receivers, etc.
7.4 Siren
The siren connects directly to the siren output and can drive up to a 30 watt
siren.
Note: The siren must be self-driven and cannot be a speaker, etc.
7.5 Keypad Bus
The devices connected to the bus should be connected in a daisy
chain formation for the best results.
The keypad has a programmable output (PGM). The PGM functions
the same as the onboard programmable outputs, except that it
triggers with 5V and not 12V.
The zone works exactly like a normal zone with an end-of-line
resistor. When using the zone it will replace the zone that it has been
programmed as. E.g. if the keypad zone has been programmed as
zone 10, zone 10 on the board will be shut down and cannot be
used.
7. 6 Zones
No Tamper Tamper
Devices that are connected to zones are divided into two
categories, normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC).
Some devices have both and the installer can select either,
depending on their preference.
NOTE: The end of line resistor must be 3K3Ω (Ω = ohm)
For a tamper installation a 12kΩ and a 4K7Ω
End of Line 3k3 Ohm 12K & a 4k7 Ohm resistor

Wireless Device Hardware setup | IDS X Series Training V2.3
7.7 Panic Zone
The dedicated panic zone is end-of-line supervised and for safety reasons,
if this resistor is not detected the system will not arm.
7.8 Telephone Connections
The line coming into the building must go directly to the alarm panel and
then onto any telephones. This will stop any attempt to disrupt
communication by taking the phone off the hook.
Wireless Device Hardware setup
Note: The import thing to remember is that when you have chosen the supervision time of 3Hrs
on the X-Series is to make sure the detectors are also set to 90min.
The correct hardware must be used as the older Duevi wireless detectors will not learn to
the integrated receiver

Reading Time Locations via an LED Keypad
When reading time on an LED keypad remember that time is always in the 24 hour format, (mm:ss,
hh:mm), therefore each digit has four zone LEDs associated to it. Example, zone 1 to 4 belong to digit 1,
zone 5 to 8 belong to digit 2, etc. as shown below. As with calculating any value each zone is given a
value, zone 1/5/9/13 have a value of 1, zone 2/6/10/14 have a value of 2, zone 3/7/11/15 have a value of 4
and zone 4/8/12/16 have a value of 8.

Programming | IDS X Series Training V2.3
Location Definitions
A location is an area of memory that holds a value. Each location is associated to a function that the alarm
needs to operate correctly. These locations have options, other locations or different data that can be
entered, to allow for customisation depending on the property being protected and on the monitoring
company.
1. Standard Location
A standard location is an area of memory that holds a value only.
2. Extended Location
An extended location is a location that has multiple sub-locations within it.
3. Bitmap
A bitmapped location is a location that has more than one option in it and each option needs to be
enabled or disabled depending on the requirements.
Programming Standard Locations
A standard location is an area of memory that holds a value only.
To program a standard location:
1. Enter Installer mode [#] [9] [9] [9] [9] [*] (This step is only required if you are not already in installer
mode)
2. Then press the keys that represent the location number followed by the [*] key
3. Now enter the data value that needs to be in the location followed by the [*] key
4. You can enter the next location or press the [#] key to exit Installer mode
Programming Extended Locations
Sub-location Method
The sub-location method programs each sub-location within a location individually.
Entering data in the sub-location format:
1. Enter Installer mode [#] [9][9][9][9] [*] (This step is only required if you are not already in installer mode)
2. Then press the keys that represententer the location number followed by the [*] key
3. Then press the keys that represententer the sub-location number followed by the [*] key
4. Now enter the data value that needs to be in the location followed by the [*] key
5. You can enter the next sub-location or press the [#] key to exit the location
6. You can enter the next location or press the [#] key to exit Installer mode
String Method
The string method programs all sub-locations within a location at once.
Entering data in the string format:
1. Enter the location (E.g. [1] [*] )
2. Now enter the complete string of data (E.g. [0][1] [0][2] [0][4] [0][4] [0][4] [1][0] [0]5] [0][3] [*])
3. When the [*] key is pressed at the end of the string, you will be removed out of the location and the
data saved. If there is an error you will hear 3 error beeps, and will remain in the location to re-enter
the data.
IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Programming

Programming Bitmap Locations
A bitmapped location holds many options within a single location that have to be selected or deselected.
Bitmapped locations can also be sub-locations.
1. Enter Installer mode [#] [9][9][9][9] [*] (This step is only required if you are not already in installer mode)
2. Then press the keys that represent the location number followed by the [*] key
3. Below is a diagram of what you may see when entering a bitmapped location or sub-location
4. To enable or disable an option, press the number corresponding to the option, then press the [*]
key, the number will come on if it was off or go off if it was on.
5. On the LCD keypad when the [*] key is pressed you will be taken to the option you have chosen.
This will show you the current value and if you want to then change the value, press the [*] key
(You can also scroll through the options using the scroll keys [>>] [<<])
6. Continue with any other options you wish to change

As can be seen in the table above, Loc [1] has a square bracket around it, indicating that it is a root
location. This means that, zone types can be entered in the string method, for zones 1 to 8 or the sublocation method for all 64 zones.
Instructions
Key presses
Enter installer mode

The keypad will begin to beep until all locations have been reset. The LEDs on the
keypads will flash indicating that they have no IDs and the system is defaulted.
The table on the right shows each location
and the defaults programmed into them at
the time of manufacture.
Zones 1 to 8 are the only zones
programmed with zone types.
All other zones must be programmed and
allocated to a partition, as described below.
Root Location:
IDS X Series Training V2.3 | Locations

Zone Types and Their Values
The value indicated in the left column of the table, is the information that must be entered. Each zone must
have a type associated to it, for the alarm to react accordingly when violated. Think of a sports team each
player is given a function, defender, attacker, etc. This allows them to function within the game which is the
same with each zone; their function is what causes them to work correctly for the security that is needed.
Exercise:
Value
Zone Type
Description
00
DISABLED
This disables the zone.
01
PRIMARY ENTRY
/ EXIT ZONE
An Entry/Exit zone is used to determine if the occupants have left the building once
the arming procedure is initiated. Violating an Entry/Exit zone when armed will initiate
the entry delay. If a valid User Code is not entered before the entry delay period
expires, an alarm condition will be registered. Failure to exit through an Entry/Exit zone
after arming will cause the panel to Stay Arm.
This zone may also function as an Entry/Exit zone that is COMMON to two partitions.
In such a case, should a user violate this zone and then disarm his partition, the
OTHER partition will re-arm after the entry delay.
02
FOLLOWER
ZONE
A violation of a Follower zone is ignored during the Entry/Exit delay period (this allows
the user to enter/exit via the Follower zone). A Follower zone will behave as an Instant
zone if the panel is armed and an Entry/Exit zone is not violated prior to violation of the
Follower zone.
03
PANIC /
PRIORITY ZONE
Regardless of whether the panel is armed or not, a violation of a Priority zone will
cause the control panel to register a panic condition. This zone type CANNOT be
bypassed.
04
INSTANT ZONE
When the panel is armed the violation of an Instant zone will cause the control panel to
register an alarm condition.
05
ARM / DISARM
ZONE
The violation of an Arm/Disarm zone will cause the panel to toggle between (away)
armed and disarmed. It is typical to connect a momentary key-switch, or non-latching
remote control unit to this zone.
08
SECONDARY
ENTRY / EXIT
ZONE
The Secondary Entry delay will be activated if this zone is violated when the panel is
armed.
09
INSTANT FIRE
ZONE
The zone will trigger on the first violation of the smoke detector
10
FIRE ZONE
Violation of a Fire Zone will cause the siren to sound regardless of whether the panel is
armed or not. The siren will sound intermittently (one second on, one second off). For
correct operation, a programmable output programmed as a fire detector power
output must be used to control power to the fire detector.
11
TAMPER ZONE
Violation of this zone will be reported to the base station regardless of whether the
panel is armed or disarmed. If the panel is armed, the siren will be activated.
12
24 HOUR
ALARM ZONE
This works the same as a Panic zone – with the exception that it is able to be
bypassed.
13
WARNING ZONE
When the panel is armed, violation of a Warning zone will cause the siren to beep. The
violation is logged in the event log but it is not reported to the base station. Warning
zones may be included and will be counted when used as part of the cross-zone
15
OUTDOOR
INSTANT ZONE
When the panel is armed the violation of an Outdoor Instant zone will cause the panel
to register an alarm condition the only difference compared to instant zone is the
contact ID code sent to the control room.

Location 10: Zone Shutdown Count
Location Type: Standard
This option monitors the zone for the number of times it violates when the system is armed. Once the
number of violations reaches the number entered in this location, the zone is automatically bypassed.
Each partition has an option to enable any zones belonging to the partition that were bypassed due to this
option in locations 221 to 228 depending on the partition.

Location 12: Cross-zone Delay Time
Location Type: Standard
Zones can be set to trigger only after a two sets of options have been fulfilled. These are, Time (Location
12) & number of violations (Location 13), the number of violations must happen in the time set. If this does
not happen the system will reset both.
Cross-zone delay time is the time that the violations must take place within, before a violation is triggered.
Data Format: mmss
Valid Range: 0000 - 5959
Default: 0030
Note: Each zone must be enabled to be part of the cross-zone group. (Location 101 to 164
depending on the zone number)
Example:
If the cross-zone delay time is set for 30 seconds and location 13 cross-zone delay count, below,
is set to 2, then when the zone violates the first time the system begins a 30 second timer waiting
for the second violation. If the second violation does not happen the timer resets waiting for the
next violation to start the countdown. But if the second violation does happen within the 30 second
count down the alarm will be triggered.
Location 13: Cross-zone Delay Count
Location Type: Standard
This is the number of times the zone must violate within the time set in location 12, Cross-zone delay time,
above.
Valid Range: 1 -15
Default: 3
Note: Each zone must be enabled to be part of the cross-zone group. (Location 101 to 164
depending on the zone number)

Cross-zone
This is when the device has to be triggered a predetermined
number of times within a set time period before the alarm will be
activated. Also known as double knock. (I.e. The zone must trigger
twice in 20 seconds)
3
OFF
Shutdown Zone
This option monitors the zone for violations and if the set number of
violations is reached whilst the alarm is on, the zone will be
bypassed. (There is an option to try and re-enable the zone when the
alarm does its auto test, if the zone is not violated, under extra partition
options. Locations 221 to 228)
4
OFF
Silent Zone
This will not set off an audible alarm, but will alert the armed
response company if the alarm has been configured to do so
5

Stay Profile
This is to allocate the zone to a stay profile so that if that profile is
activated the zone will be bypassed. A stay profile is used to
deactivate certain zones when the alarm is active, allowing
movement within those zones. Different, or the same zones, can be
allocated to 4 different profiles allowing for different situations that
may arise. (This can also be set via the user menu)
13 Profile 1
14 Profile 2
15 Profile 3

Buzz Profile
Again this is an option to allocate zones to a buzz profile. A buzz
zone only works in the stay mode, allowing the zone to be violated
for 30 seconds before triggering the alarm. During the 30 seconds,
the keypad will sound the buzzer as an audible warning to alert the
person that the zone has been violated. As with stay profiles,
different or the same zones can be allocated to 4 different profiles
allowing for different situations that may arise. (This can also be set
via the user menu.) Buzz profile 1 is associated with stay profile 1,
etc.
