Notes:
1. The analog XP-9102 must be placed in position XP1.
2. Two XP-9106 modules are considered as one XP module when installed next to each
other in Position XP1 or XP2. When a single XP-9106 is installed in Position XP1 and
another type of XP module is installed in Position XP2, the total number of I/Os is
restricted to 12.
3. The XP-9106 can only be placed in Position XP2 when Position XP1 is filled by an
analog XP or two XP-9106 modules.
4. The first XP-9106 in position XP1 or XP2 controls points DO1-DO4 and the second
XP-9106 in either position controls points DO5-DO8.
5. Digital modules with counters must be in position XP1.
XT-9100 Type
Settings
Power Line Via the GX Tool
Frequency
(50 or 60 Hz) Select DX-9100 and then Global. Enter the frequency as 50 or 60. The
XT frequency and the DX frequency are both defined here.
Maximum Time When communication fails for the period set in this Item, the XT-9100
Between goes into “communication failure” state, indicated by a blinking power
Communications LED on the front of the module. The default value is 60 seconds.
Operational Mode The operational mode of the XT-9100 can be seen at Item OPMO (RI.01)
(SX Only) with following status bits:
X8 = 1 PWR Power Failure. This bit is set when a XT is
powered up or when there is a serial interface
communication failure.
The setting in Item XTS (RI.69) Bit X2 (“Output Hold/Reset on
Communication Failure” flag) is repeated in Item OPMO (RI.01) Bit X7
so that it can be read by the DX-9100 or any other monitoring system.
Via SX Tool
Refer to the Extension Module Configuration section in the DX-9100
Configuration Guide (LIT-6364030).
Analog Input
Configuration Each analog input is defined and configured by the following parameters:
• Tag name (optional, GX-only)
• Measurement units (for RTD inputs)
• Enable square root
• Alarm on unfiltered value
• Input signal range
• Alarm limits
• Filter time constant
The GX Tool determines the input signal range with a 2-stage process:
you must first decide if the input is active or passive; the remaining
options depend on this choice. With the SX Tool, this information is
entered into a number of Items.
AI Input Type: This function allows the linearization of the differential pressure signal
Enable Square from a 0-10 VDC or 0/4 - 20 mA active sensor; the function is effective
Root over the selected range:
AI = sqrt(PR%/100) * (HR - LR) + LR
Where %PR = the Analog Value in % of the physical input range;
HR = High Range Value; and LR = Low Range Value.
AI Input Type: The high limit and the low limit define at which levels the analog input
Alarm Limits reading will generate an alarm, either for remote monitoring or for internal
use within the control sequences in the DX-9100.
Note: The limits cannot be deleted. If you do not want alarms, enter
limits beyond the range.
Filter Time The Filter Time Constant Ts (seconds) is used to filter out any cyclic
Constant instability in the analog input signals. The calculations are:
FVt = FVt-1 + [1/(1 + Ts)] * [AIt - FVt-1]
Where: FVt = Filtered Analog Value at current time
FVt-1 = Filtered Analog Value at previous poll
AIt = Actual Analog Value at current time
A value of “0” disables the filter.

Analog Output Each analog output is defined and configured by the following parameters:
Configuration • Tag name (GX-9100 only)
• Output type
When the XT is connected to a DX-9100 Controller, the following
parameters are defined in the DX-9100 for the analog output:
• Source
• Range
AO: Range The AO range of the analog output is defined in the DX-9100 Controller.
(with DX-9100 The High Range defines the level of control source signal that corresponds
only) to an output of 100%.
The Low Range defines the level of control source signal that corresponds
to an output of 0%.
When the source point is equal to the high range, then the output will be at
the maximum signal (10V/20 mA). When the source point is equal to low
range, then the output will be at the minimum signal (0V, 0/4 mA).
DO: Pulse Time This parameter is set once for all pulse type outputs in the XT-9100.
Via the SX Tool XT-9100 configuration data can only be changed item by item with the
SX Tool. It is not possible to download or upload a complete
configuration.
Item Address A configuration comprises a set of parameters which are stored in a series
of memory locations in the XT-9100. These parameters are called Items.
Each Item is assigned an Item Address.
Active parameters such as analog values are stored in RAM.
Configuration parameters are stored in EEPROM. Data stored in
EEPROM is retained when the power is switched off.
The Item List at the end of this manual gives a brief description of each
Item available within the module.
Item Type The format of any XT-9100 Item is described by the following types:
Number: Floating point number (2 bytes)
1 Byte: Unsigned 8-bit hexadecimal number used to transfer logic
states or integer numbers 0-255
2 Bytes: Unsigned 16-bit hexadecimal number used to transfer logic
states or unsigned integer numbers
4 Bytes: Unsigned 32-bit hexadecimal number used to transfer logic
states or unsigned integer numbers
The information stored in the Items can have one of several formats:
1. Floating Point Numerical Items are real numbers, with a +/- sign.
They refer to input or output values, limit values, etc. They are
displayed and entered as numbers, with a sign and a decimal point.
These Items are shown in the Item List with “Number” in the Type
column.
2. Integer Items are positive whole numbers used as scale factors.
These Items are shown in the Item List with “1 Byte Int” in the Type
column.

Item Tag Each Item in the Item List has a unique name or “tag,” which summarizes
the description and the meaning of the data which is stored in the XT-9100
memory.
The Items are shown in the Item List with their respective names in the
Tag column.
Read/Write Data The Items shown in the Item List can be divided into three basic
(R/W) categories:
1. Input values and status of the XT-9100 can be read but not changed
by a Supervisory System. These Items are shown in the Item List
with an “R” in the R/W column.
2. Variables in the XT-9100 can be read and modified by the GX-9100
Graphic Configuration Software or Supervisory System. These Items
are shown in the Item List with an “R/W” in the R/W (read/write)
column. (E) indicates that the Item is stored in EEPROM.
3. All other Items in the XT-9100 refer to configuration parameters of
the controller and contain information such as analog ranges, output
type, etc., and they can only be changed with the GX-9100 Graphic
Configuration Software. These Items are shown in the Item List with
a “CNF” (configuration) in the R/W column.
All Items can be accessed by the SX Tool via a DX-9100 Controller.
