MODEL ICP-B6
Intelligent Control Point
The Model ICP-B6 Intelligent Control Point from
Siemens Industry, Inc. can be used as an
independent, remotely located telephone zone, a
speaker zone (25V or 70.7V RMS), or notification
appliance circuit (NAC), depending on how it is
configured. It communicates through the analog
loop of the MXL/MXLV System.
OPERATION
Up to 12 ICP-B6s can connect to each analog
loop of the MXL/MXLV. These modules must
be connected to the first 12 address locations
on the analog loop.
The 24 VDC power input for each ICP-B6
comes from either the MMB, the PSR, or from
an auxiliary power supply which is power
limited and UL listed for fire protective signaling use and is rated between 24 and 27.3
VDC. Each ICP-B6 can be assigned a 32character, custom alphanumeric message.
Each module uses one address on either the
analog loop of the ALD-2I module or the analog
loop of the MMB board. (See Figure 1) The
ICP-B6 is programmable for different usages.
To Set the ICP-B6 Module Address:
1. Plug the programming cable of the DPU or
FPI-32 Programmer/Tester (SensorLINK)
into the two-pin receptacle on the ICP-B6.
(See Figure 2 for location only.)
2. Set the system address for the ICP-B6 by
following the instructions in the FPI-32
(SensorLINK) Programmer/Tester Manual,
P/N 315-090077, or the DPU User's
Manual, P/N 315-033260, as applicable.
Remove all system power before installation, first battery and then AC. (To power
up, connect the AC first, then the battery.)
All wiring must comply with
national and local codes.
The ICP-B6 should be installed in a UL
listed electrical box. (See Figure 10.)
For additional information on the MXL/MXLV
System, refer to the MXL/MXLVManual, P/N
315-092036.
Addressing and Testing
Use the DPU Device Programming Unit or the
FPI-32 Programmer/Tester (SensorLINK) to
program and test the module.
NOTE: With FPI-32 Rev. 1.3 software, only
1=MXL mode should be used when
programming a device.

Analog Loop
The ICP-B6 communicates with the MXL
through its analog addressable loops. These
loops are on either the MMB or on the optional ALD-2I module of the MOM-4. They
may be wired for Class A (Style 6) or Class B
(Style 4). Figure 1 shows both wiring types
and the connections to either the MMB or to
the MOM-4 when the ALD-2I module is used.
The table on the following page lists the
maximum output currents allowed.

The ICP-B6 module can be used in four
different ways:
1. Using the ICP-B6 as an NAC Module
This notification appliance application uses the
principle of polarity reversal when there is an
alarm. Figure 2 shows the polarity connection
in a supervisory condition. When using the
ICP-B6 as a supervised NAC output module
with notification appliance devices, cut jumper
JP2. Refer to Figure 2 for additional connection and jumper information, and to P/N 315096363 for a list of compatible devices.

When used as an NAC module, the output
circuit is power limited. The ICP-B6 maximum
current is 1.5A at 24 VDC. If the 24 VDC is
lost or the NAC line is broken or shorted, the
trouble condition INPUT DEVICE RESPONSE
TOO LOW displays at the MXL/MXLV control
panel. Refer to Figures 3 and 4 for the connections used with the TRI-60/B6 module and
the PSR-1 module, respectively. See the
Line
Resistance chart for the allowable line
resistance for each ICP-B6 output circuit.

NOTES:
1. Resistances specified are for both wires.
2. If higher currents are required, Siemens Industry, Inc. recommends using a local auxiliary
supply which is UL listed for fire protection signaling use. The supply should be rated between
24 and 27.3 VDC.
