1. Introduction

The XT Videofied® alarm panel and its variants can be used as standard
standalone alarm system but it can also be connected to an existing alarm system
capable of latching a 9-12 VDC voltage used for its arming/disarming.

Thanks to a electrical relay. the the XT panel can also arm or disarm other XT
panels. The panel can also be armed by a master system or an external power
supply with a switch.

This application note describes how to set up the XT panel for XTENDER use.

The XT panels used in XTENDER or used as master system must be powered by an
AC power supply.

When the XT panel is used in XTENDER mode, the system will only be able to arm
and disarm by latching 9-12 VDC to its arming inputs Arming Input 1 and/or Arming
Input 2. When voltage is 0V, the panel automatically disarms. If the XT is used as a
master system, it does not generate a constant voltage but an electrical pulse
(limited to 15 minutes), you will need to use an impulse relay.
