4.3 USM2 Signal Definition,

continued

Name:

Tamper Switch Status

Pin:

J3-7

Signal Type:

USM2 Discrete Output

Referenced to:

Common (J3-1, J3-12)

Description:

USM2 output indicates the current state of the XM2’s enclosure tamper switch.
This is a non-latching type alarm.

Active Means:

The enclosure door is opened or the tamper switch is disconnected.

Active State:

HIGH

Inactive Means:

The enclosure tamper switch is properly connected and the door is closed.

Inactive State:

LOW

How to Test:

Disconnect any tamper switch from the USM2 TMPR connector. Short USM2
TMPR connector; the USM2 tamper status (pin #7) should go LOW. Remove
the short on USM2 TMPR connector (open circuit) and the Tamper Status output
should go HIGH.

Name:

Output Current #1

Pin:

J3-8

Signal Type:

USM2 Analog Output #1

Referenced to:

Common (J3-1, J3-12)

Description:

This USM2 analog output is a DC approximation of the total XM2 AC output #1
current.

Parameters:

0.4VDC per AC ampere XM2 output.

How to Test:

Verify voltage on J3-8 is 0.4VDC per AC ampere XM2 output #1.

NOTE:

Due to design improvements and changes the Quick Charge function is no longer supported, however, some
“old” USM2 may still have this function. The Quick Charge definition remains only as a reference, current
configurations do not have this feature.

Name:

Quick Charge

(Not used in newer versions of the USM2)

Pin:

J3-9

Signal Type:

USM2 Discrete Input

Referenced to:

Common (J3-1, J3-12)

Description:

This USM2 input controls the mode of the XM2 charger. Allowing remote
initiation of a charger Accept mode. This control signal originates from the
transponder.

Active Means:

The XM2 has been commanded to initiate and hold a battery charger Accept
mode.

Active State:

LOW

Inactive Means:

The XM2 charger is no longer commanded to hold an Accept mode. The charger
may return to Float. Disconnected from a transponder, this USM2 input defaults
to the inactive state.

Inactive State:

HIGH

How to test:

To perform a test of the Charger Accept pin, disconnect the transponder from
the USM2. With line and battery applied to the XM2, carefully short & hold the
Charger Accept J3-9 to ground (J3-1). The XM2 charger should immediately
enter Accept mode, verified by the Charger Mode screen on the Smart Display.
Release J3-9 from ground and the charger should return to Float mode.
