9.1 Zone Expansion
Up to 574 fire and burglary zones are available on the XR2500F using DMP Security Command keypad remote
zone capability and zone expansion modules. The panel keypad data bus supports up to sixteen supervised
device	addresses	with	each	address	supporting	up	to	four	programmable	expansion	zones.
Up	to	500	zones	are	available	using	the	on-board	LX-Bus	along	with	additional	expansion	modules.		Use	the	
461 Interface Adaptor, 462N, 462P, 463G, or 481 interface cards, and any combination of sixteen, eight, four,
and	single	point	zone	expander	modules	and	single	point	LX-Bus	detectors.	
Combined	current	requirements	of	additional	modules	may	require	an	additional	power	supply.		See	the	
710/710F Bus Splitter/Repeater Installation Guide (LT-0310). Refer to the Standby Battery Calculations
section	when	calculating	power	requirements.		
Note:	Do	not	use	shielded	wire	for	LX-Bus	or	Keypad	Bus	circuits.		
9.2 Output Expansion
Note:	Do	not	use	shielded	wire	for	LX-Bus	or	Keypad	Bus	circuits.		
In	addition	to	the	two	SPDT	relays	and	four	programmable	open	collector	outputs	on	the	XR2500F,	you	can	
also connect up to 25 programmable Model 716 Output Expansion Modules to each LX-Bus. These modules
can	provide	an	additional	500	programmable	SPDT	relays.
The	XR2500F	provides	100	Output	Schedules	you	can	use	for	programming	the	716	to	perform	a	variety	of	
annunciation and control functions. You can also assign the 716 outputs to any panel Output Options such as
Fire	Alarm,	Communication	Fail,	or	Phone	Trouble	Outputs.		Refer	to	the	716	Installation	Guide	(LT-0183).
The	LX-Bus™	also	supports	the	Model	717	Graphic	Annunciator	Module.		Each	717	module	supplies	20	
switched	ground	outputs	that	follow	the	state	of	their	assigned	zones.		
Note:	The	717	supports	the	first	eight	keypad	bus	zones.		To	follow	Keypad	Bus	zones	nine	through	16,	install	
multiple 716 modules. Refer to the 717 Installation Guide (LT-0235) and 716 Installation Guide (LT-0183).
