IDS X-Series v2.7
Change Guide
Introduction
With X-Series v2.7 comes the new Xwave 2. The latest in bi-directional wireless technology that
will ensure your detectors are properly supervised.
Xwave2
The IDS X-Series Bi-directional Xwave2 Hub offers an additional 16 wireless supervised zones
and two programmable outputs. The hub can also learn up to 16 Xwave2 Bi-directional remote
transmitters. It is wired to the X-Series panel in the same way as all other peripheral devices, on
the keypad bus.
1. Installation
Xwave2 works on the IDS X-Series panels, versions 2.7 and above.
1.1. Addressing
To address the Xwave2 Hub, set the dipswitches as per the table below. Depending on what
address is used on the Hub will determine the zone numbers it uses.
Note: The unit must be powered down when selecting the unit’s address.

and Other Wireless Expanders
The Xwave2 Hub can work in conjunction with Xwave/Duevi. You can either have the Xwave
2
operating with a different address to an Xwave/Duevi Expander using a different zone range or,
if needed, with the same address as an Xwave/Duevi Expander in which case it will share the
zone range.
Remember you can only have 1 wireless device learnt to a zone, so if you have a Duevi
detector learnt to zone 4, you cannot learn an Xwave2 detector to zone 4. You will have to use
another zone number or delete the Duevi detector in zone 4.

Hub Outputs
The Xwave2 Hub has two onboard programmable outputs. The address of these outputs are
based on the hubs ID.

Hub LEDs
There are 4 LEDs on the board marked “BEACON”, “NETWORK”, “TROUBLE” and “ALERT”.
BEACON: LED will flash when transmitting information.
NETWORK: LED indicates the bi-directional networks information. The LED
will be ON in normal operation with no errors. If there are errors
it will start pulsing the error number.
TROUBLE: LED indicates troubles with the Hubs connection to the X-
Series bus. The LED will be OFF if there are no troubles. If
there are errors it will start pulsing the error number.
ALERT: LED will pulse to indicate a message is being received.

1.6. Defaulting
If an Xwave2 Hub has been registered to a panel it would have received a unique network ID
and to remove the hub and attached it to a different X-Series panel it must be defaulted.
To default the Xwave2 Hub:
1. Remove all power
2. Put all dipswitches ON
3. Power the unit up and wait three seconds
4. Power the unit down
2. Location 260
All Xwave2 programming is done in location 260. Here you can learn a detector, delete a
detector and change a detectors configuration.
2.1. Learning an Xwave
2
Detector (Sub Location 1)
If a detector is not learnt to a hub it will send out join requests every 20 seconds.
There are two ways you can learn an Xwave2 detector:
1. Go to Location 260 Sub Location 1, select the zone number and type in the serial
number of the detector.
If the detectors serial code is listed in the hub then the hub will learn the detector once it
receives a join request from that detector.
2. Go to Location 260 Sub Location 1, select the zone number and release the tamper of
the detector.
A hub will only learn a detector if it receives the detectors join request with a tamper signal. If
you have multiple defaulted detectors with their covers off then the hub will learn the first signal
it gets. NB: Only have 1 defaulted detector tampered at a time.
There will be a slight delay when moving a detector from one hub to another. You can learn a
learned detector to another hub by deleting the serial code from the existing hubs zone and
then entering the serial code into the new hubs zone. The detector can take up to 3 mins to
default once removed from the first hub, at which point it will join the new hub it is learned to.

To delete a detector go to location 260 sub location 2, select the zone and press * to delete.
The detector will default itself within 3 minutes allowing it to be learned to another hub.

Configuration Settings
Due to the intelligence of Xwave2 you can now change the detectors configuration settings,
LED and Pulse count, from the X-Series panel.
Go to location 260 sub location 5, select the zone and enable/disable the bitmaps according to
your needs. See bitmap values below.

Remotes
The user menu is used to add/edit/delete remotes.
3.1. Remote Transmitter
Each remote transmitter has five buttons to control the alarm panel or query its status.
3.2. Defaulting
If the remote transmitter was learnt to a different bi-directional installation it must be defaulted
before joining a new installation.
Defaulting procedure 1:
1. Remove the battery from the unit
2. Hold down button 1
3. Insert the battery while holding button 1
4. Release button 1.
Defaulting procedure 2:
1. Press and hold a remote transmitter button until it stops sending panics (Red Led
comes on) when out of range or if the bi-directional hub is off.

3.6. Remote Transmitter LED
The remote transmitter has bi-directional communication with the X-Series alarm panel and will
display different information by changing the colour of the LED and flashing a number of times.
The remote transmitter will respond with the status when you use a button or you can query the
alarm panel and get feedback e.g. armed or disarmed, current stay profile, outputs.
To query status:
1. Press the function button. (Button 1)
2. Then press the button that is allocated to the function that is being queried
3. The LED will indicate the status.
Example to query the arm status of the alarm using the default button assignments:
Press button 1 (Function button) then button 3 (Arm/Disarm button). The led will flash white
indicating transmitting message then blue if the alarm is ready to arm, red if armed or flash red
if armed but a violation has occurred.

4. Walk Test
The user menu is used to put the detectors in ‘Walk Test’.
Walk test mode will put certain capable devices into walk test mode from the X-Series keypad.
Once in walk test mode the device will trigger continuously when an object has been detected
and the LED will come on to indicate the detection.
To enter devices into walk test mode:
1. Enter the Master User Menu
2. Scroll to [Walk Test] menu or enter [1][9][*]
3. Enter the partition whose devices you want to walk test
4. Enter the number of minutes the walk test must stay active, 1 to 15 minutes. The system
will automatically exit walk test mode once the time entered expires.
5. I/O Module
The Xwave2 I/O Module is a wireless device with two physical zone inputs and one output.
The module requires 12vDC power. You can wire two wired detectors into the zone inputs and
it will transmit as a wireless device. The module learns to the hub in the same way as any other
detector, however:
1. If you learn by tamper the module will learn its first input into the selected zone and the
second input will automatically learn into the following zone.
2. If you learn by serial number the module will learn the first input into the selected zone
and the second zone will be disabled.
The module has one programmable output, the address of the output is based on what zone
the I/O Module is learned to.

6. Other New Features
6.1. Location 56 Dialler Retry Wait Time
Location 56 has been added to X-Series 2.7 communication settings. This allows you to set the
time the dialler waits before trying to dial again in the event it failed to report to the basestation.
6.2. Location 251-258 Keypad Options
Sub-locations 7 and 8 have been added to the keypad options in locations 251-258.
Sub-location 7 (Buzzer follows Siren) will enable the keypads buzzer to sound when the siren
sounds.
Sub-location 8 (Global Chime) will set the keypad to chime for all chime zones in all partitions.
6.3. User Code or User Slot
In the User Menu you can now edit all user properties using either the user code or the user
slot, including remote programming. This allows you to edit user properties without knowing the
users’ code.
