ioXpander-8 Module
Internal wired 8 I/O expander for PowerMaster-33 control panel
1. Introduction
The ioXpander-8 module enhances the PowerMaster-33 control panel with 8 programmable wired zone inputs or
outputs. The behavior of each wired PGM output can be configured and each wired zone input can be set up with a
location and type.
The ioXpander-8 module is optional, and can be installed in a PowerMaster-33 EXP control panel with version 19.2 or
higher.

Notes for ioXpander-8 module wiring:
Wired zone terminals can be connected to a normally closed contact of
a detector, switch (for example a tamper switch of any device), or a
Ω
pushbutton, via a 2.2 K
resistor. The 12V terminal can be used to
supply 12V to low power detectors with up to 10mA standby current
drain as DA-5; PL-1; Next_PIR; Vi-Motion; Vi-Pet.
IMPORTANT! The terminals for internal and external sirens are DC
outputs intended for 12v sirens. Connecting a loudspeaker to any of
these outputs will cause a short circuit and will damage the unit.
The Speech Box is a wired remote speaker and microphone device
for indoor use. It provides two-way voice communication between the
user and the central station using the control panel.
Caution! Do not install or remove the ioXpander-8 module when the
control panel is powered by AC power or battery.
For wired zones, the control panel classifies the events according to
the resistance it measures as shown in the table below.

Pin #1 to #8 can be configured either as zone inputs or as PGM
outputs.
To mount the expander module as shown in Figure 2.1,
complete the following steps:
1.
Press downward on the expander module between the two clips
to insert the module into the back panel. See Figure 2.1
ioXpander-8 Mounting and Wiring (A) to identify the clips.
2.
Connect the ioXpander-8 module by the flat cable to the front
panel expander slot "EXPANDER".
