16 Zone Expander
ELK-M1XIN
L527 10/05
1. A single M1XIN Expander can be mounted inside the
M1 enclosure on the left hand side of the M1 board
using the supplied ELK-SWG Circuit Board Glides. If
additionalexpandersare required,theycan bemounted
in either an ELK-SWB14 or ELK-SWB28 enclosure.
Up to 8 expanders can be mounted in an SWB14 while
up to 16 expanders can be mounted in an SWB28.
The ELK-SWG Circuit Board Glides attach to the
enclosure at strategically placed 2-hole punch
patterns. Note that one hole in each pattern is slightly
larger than the other. The small hole is for a 6/32 type
“F” mounting screw and the large hole is for a half-
moon shape locator tab on the bottom of each glide.
ELK-SWG
2. Starting at the top left corner, loosely start a 6/32”
mounting screw in the small hole of the first 2-hole
pattern. Place the slotted edge of a board glide
under this screw, making sure that the half-moon tab
fits into the larger hole and the grooved edge is
facing down. Tighten the screw using a long
shafted screwdriver. Install a second board glide in
the 2-hole pattern 6" below. Attach the second
board glide using the same procedures. The
grooved edge of this glide should face up.
3. Slide the M1XIN board into the grooves provided by
the glides. The circuit board should slide freely. If
loose or too tight, simply loosen one of the mounting
screws and adjust the glide to assure a good fit.
Installation
WiringConnections
1. Turn Control Panel Master Power Switch Off.
2. Use a 4 wire cable to connect terminals +VKP, Data
A, Data B, and Neg from Control to terminals 12V, A,
B, and Neg on the M1XIN. NOTE: If the zone
expander is remotely mounted, refer to information
on the back and in the M1 Installation Manual for
important information about data bus devices
connected to multiple homerun cables.
4. Set Address Switches according to Table 1.
5. Power up the Control and the expander(s).
6. Use Keypad to access the Installer Programming
Mode and go to Menu 01-Bus Module Enrollment.
Press the right arrow key to start enrollment. To
view the results, press the right arrow "edit" key.
6. Go to Menu 05-Zone Definitions and enable any of
the new zones. Zone numbers printed on the
boards are relative to that board only. The actual
zone ID is based on the starting address setting.
NOTE: If it becomes necessary to replace an enrolled
device, set the new unit to the same address and
repeat the enrollment. If permanently removing a
device, un-enroll it to prevent a trouble condition.
