1. INTRODUCTION

The Advent XT2 assisted living call management system consists of a resident’s intercom which is linked directly to

an onsite Manager’s cordless handset and a touch-screen Manager’s display panel. The system connects offsite to

a 24-hour Alarm Receiving Centre (ARC). In addition to this the Advent XT2 system can be combined with a fully

integrated door entry system reducing the need for two separate infrastructures.

Although analogue PSTN connectivity has been used to connect grouped living systems to Alarm

Receiving Centres for over 40 years, a recent statement from OFCOM stated that all existing

analogue telephone lines will be replaced with digital Internet Protocol (IP) infrastructures in the

coming years. The Advent XT2 digitally enabled assisted living system is built on a new digital

platform to provide a reliable and future proofed digital connection, ensuring continuity of service

after the digital migration.

The Advent XT2 offers these additional features compared to the previous Advent XT system;

• Digital Controller with integral 5.7” touch-screen for programming

• Facility to connect 2 PSTN lines for 2 simultaneous offsite calls

• Facility to connect 2 DECT lines for 2 simultaneous onsite calls

• Ethernet connection for a touch-screen Windows 10 Manager’s display panel

• Optional Digital Notice Board (connected to the Manager’s display panel)

• Future Cloud connectivity for Manager’s panel functions and storage/setup of system config data

• Up to 32 x 869MHz bi-directional Telecare Network Receivers

• Up to 8192 x 869MHz Telecare devices

• Handsfree Voice Switching (HVS) on door entry intercoms (no press to speak/release to listen)

• Progressive door entry (allows access through multiple doors from one call)

• 512 Network nodes per site (includes intercoms, door panels, NTR’s, lift callpoints & external callpoints)

• 2 new intercom keypads (standard and door entry models)

• Extra-care intercom functionality as standard

• All call speech and fire alarm tone functionality as standard

• Remote control option for door entry intercom

• Flexible call routing

• Up to 16 global telephone numbers

• Up to 3 Personal Recipient (PR) telephone numbers per intercom (local offsite family/friends contacts)

4. MAINTENANCE & CARE

For peace of mind and to ensure your system is maintained to the highest standard Tynetec recommend an annual

maintenance contract. This will provide vital assistance in times of need from a nationwide team of trained Service

Engineers who specialise in Assisted Living systems.

A preventative maintenance visit (PMV) is also recommended, this covers the replacement of all batteries, a full

system test, software updates (where applicable) and a Service Certificate.

For more information on Maintenance Contract Packages and PMV’s please contact your local Tynetec Approved

Installer, a list can be found on our website; www.tynetec.co.uk/installer-locator

MONTHLY MAINTENANCE

All user interface equipment i.e. intercoms, door entry telephones, pendants, cordless & desk handsets should be

regularly cleaned with anti-bacterial wipes, at the same time they should be checked for signs of external physical

damage. Broken or cracked plastic cases can trap dirt and contribute to the spread of germs. Products needing repair

can be returned via the website; www.tynetec.co.uk/returns-policy

ANNUAL MAINTENANCE

Although the XT2 controller batteries are monitored and a poor state of charge is reported automatically it is best

practice to have the batteries tested every year and replaced every 5 years. The optional PA amplifier uses the same

battery, and this should be tested/replaced at the same time - see section 28/29 for the correct battery type. At the

same time a full system test should be performed to ensure all equipment is operating correctly.

In the unlikely event that the XT2 controller needs to be turned-off or reset, please ensure all active

calls are actioned before proceeding.

telephone lines connected, this will allow 2 simultaneous offsite calls or if one line fails the second line will

automatically be selected.

DIGITAL CONNECTION (IP ARC)

The ARC must support BS8521-2 (NowIP) protocol. A secure Broadband connection with a fixed IP address is

required. Refer to Tynetec Document No. FM0903 for XT2 Digital Connectivity options available. When connecting to

the ARC, it's important to ensure that the Centre sets up the audio connection in full duplex mode.

MANAGER’S DISPLAY PANEL

One Manager’s display panel can be connected to the Advent XT2 system. This is a wall mounted 10.1” TFT touch

screen monitor to display call information and the system status, it can also be used to setup system features and to

add/remove radio devices. A large screen “Notice Board” monitor can be connected to the HDMI port of the

Manager’s panel to display information on events or messages for staff/residents. The Manager’s panel requires a

local mains supply and connection to the Advent XT2 controller via an Ethernet cable.

NETWORK RECEIVERS & TELECARE DEVICES

A maximum of 32 x 869MHz network receivers can be connected on the Advent XT2 system. Up to 8192 x 869MHz

intercoms. All intercoms have a PA facility as standard, one PA amplifier is required for every 80 intercoms. Each group

of 80 intercoms must be wired on a separate network leg.

Doc No. FM0804 issue 15 Page 9

7. CONTROLLER INSTALLATION

The Advent XT2 controller is housed in a wall mounted steel enclosure with integral power supply and 2 rechargeable

standby batteries. It also includes a 5.7” touch-screen for system programming and event logs.

The XT2 controller lid should only be removed during installation and service – it must be screwed

shut at all other times to prevent the risk of electric shock.

Never leave a live XT2 controller unattended with the lid removed.

INSTALLATION

The Advent XT2 controller should be wall mounted in a dry, secure area which is easily accessible for termination and

future service. Fix the chassis to the wall using the two keyholes marked “A” below;

7. CONTROLLER INSTALLATION

MAINS SUPPLY CONNECTION

The 240V AC mains connection should be taken from the landlord’s supply and terminated via an un-switched fused

spur with neon alongside the controller. The typical power requirement for a standard 32-way Advent XT2 system is

15 Watts.

Connect the Advent XT2 controller to the fused spur using the 3-core flex and IEC socket provided. Secure the flex to

the chassis using a cable tie to prevent the mains lead being inadvertently unplugged. The spur should be fitted with a

5A fuse. If the flex is replaced always ensure the ferrite core is re-fitted as close as possible to the IEC socket.

27V SMPSU MODULE

The Advent XT2 controller includes a 27V/150W (5.6A) switched mode power supply unit with solid state over-load,

over-voltage and over-temperature protection. With the mains connected the green Supply Healthy LED should be

illuminated. The output voltage is factory set to 27.5V DC with the batteries disconnected using a DVM across V+/V-.

BATTERY STANDBY

In the event of a mains failure, two 12V 5Ah rechargeable batteries will maintain a typical

system for approx. 12 hours. A protection circuit will disconnect the battery supply in the

event of prolonged mains failure to prevent damage to the batteries. The mains supply

must be applied first to energise the protection circuit, i.e. the system will not function

by simply connecting the batteries alone. An optional external battery box is available

to extend the battery standby time to 24 hours – see section 13.

7. CONTROLLER INSTALLATION

TELEPHONE LINE CONNECTION

The 2 Telecom leads provided with the Advent XT2 controller are used to connect the PSTN1 & PSTN2 ports to the

master sockets provided by telephone company.

If an Ethernet connection to a Digital IP-ARC is being used then PSTN line(s) are not essential.

The Digital IP-ARC can receive calls and dial-in to the XT2 system remotely using the NOW-IP protocol.

IMPORTANT: to allow for remote dial-in to the XT2 system from a non-digital system (e.g. a local offsite Manager’s

mobile phone or fixed line telephone), a PSTN line must be connected to the XT2 system.

The 2 RJ11 leads provided with the Matrix IP-PBX are used to connect the DECT 1 & DECT 2 ports to the IP-PBX CO1 &

CO3 lines. If the DECT requires access to an external telephone line, then this should be connected to the IP-PBX CO2.

If a PBX is not fitted, then up to 4 standard telephones (REN 1) can be connected per DECT port.

ETHERNET CONNECTION

The Ethernet 2 port (CON4) on the XT2 Controller

should be connected to an ADSL router or a

mobile broadband router if offsite calls are being

reported to a Digital IP-ARC.

Refer to the Digital Connectivity Options

(Tynetec Doc. No. FM0903) to obtain the necessary

information when setting-up the Ethernet connection.

MICRO SD CARD REMOVAL

Ensure there are no active calls on the system.

Touch the display in the XT2 controller, enter the Engineer’s password, select Maintenance from the

System Tools group then select Unmount Micro SD Card before removing the card.

Push down to release the SD card mechanical latch, to refit push down until the latch clicks into place.

ATTENTION: Electrostatic Sensitive Device - observe precautions for handling.

Only use a Swissbit industrial Micro SD card type: SFSD1024N1BN1TO-E-DF-161-STD (Tynetec Part No. W01241).

IMPORTANT NOTE REF. RE-USING EXISTING NETWORK WIRING

Given the critical nature of grouped living systems and an increasing demand on data requirements, it’s imperative

that the infrastructure being utilised is of a sound nature. If installing new system hardware onto existing cable

infrastructures, it's vitally important to ensure that the cable being used, is in good condition as degradation can lead

to reduced levels of system performance. Although cables are generally long lasting (more than 25 years), with both

the insulation and central core being very stable, where the cable is subjected to contact points or when exposed to

high levels of UV, there is always a possibility that it can deteriorate over time. We would therefore recommend that

any existing cable infrastructure be inspected (especially around junction boxes or where the cable is exposed to

sunlight) to ensure that there are no signs of brittleness or metal oxidisation. In addition to visual inspections, it is also

good practice to carry out resistance testing to determine whether there are any hidden losses in cable continuity. If

degradation is detected, we would always recommend that the cable is replaced before continuing with the

installation of any new hardware.

8. NETWORK WIRING

The Advent XT2 system requires a minimum of 5 twisted pairs common to all intercom units – if you plan to re-use the

existing site wiring refer to the EXISTING NETWORK WIRING statement on the previous page. On new installations a 6

pair CW1308 cable is recommended; 1 pair for 24V, 1 pair for 0V, 1 pair for data and 3 pairs for audio.

Plan the network route carefully to minimise cable length using the intercom units to join the cable thereby avoiding

additional joint boxes in corridors or roof areas etc. On large installations the network should be split into two or three

smaller legs to reduce the effect of voltage drop and aid future service/fault finding.

The network cable length should not exceed 1200 metres and the total number of network devices on an RS485 data

bus must not exceed 255. A data repeater (P/No. ZXT340) is available for extreme cases.

Single auxiliary devices such as external Manager callpoints, lift speech units and network receivers can be connected

to the system network wiring as shown above.

To reduce the likelihood of data corruption it is not recommended to split the network wiring into multiple legs from a

mid-point in the wiring. Small groups of intercoms spurred off at any point should also be avoided.

If the existing site wiring has spurs of intercoms it is recommended that they are re-wired into the main network or

isolated and connected back separately to the controller as additional legs – see below;

Detailed site plans and existing wiring details are imperative before designing an installation.

9. NETWORK LOAD CONSIDERATIONS

It is very important to take voltage-drop across the system network into consideration when planning an installation.

It is the cable resistance on the power supply wiring that gives rise to voltage-drop, the longer the cable run and the

larger the current requirement the larger the voltage-drop. To perform a detailed assessment of voltage-drop is

complex; you need to know the current requirement of each device, the distance between each device and the

resistance of the cable per metre. To estimate the worst-case scenario simply take the maximum cable run and

calculate the voltage-drop as if all devices were at the end of the cable.

Typical current requirements of devices connected to the Advent XT2 network are given below:

24V Network Devices

Standby

Intercom Unit

2mA

Ceiling Pullcord with 24V LED

-

Door Entry Telephone

2mA

Manager Callpoint

2mA

Lift Speech Unit

2mA

Network Receiver

6mA

Door Entry Panel

30mA

EXAMPLE

The estimated voltage-drop on an installation with 40 intercoms, 1 Manager callpoint, 1 lift speech unit and 3 network

receivers on 400 metres of cable would be;

(40 x 2mA) + (2 x 2mA) + (3 x 6mA) = total current 102 mA (0.102A) on 24V line

400 metres of CW1308 cable = 40Ω (10Ω per 100 metres)

using V = I x R: 0.102A x 40Ω = 4.08V drop on 24V line (leaving approx. 20V)

Devices on the 24V supply will work down to approx. 16V therefore the above drop is acceptable.

REDUCING VOLTAGE DROP

There are several means of reducing the voltage-drop; site conditions will dictate which is used;

1. The best solution is to split the network into several short spurs rather than one long run. This has the advantage of

a smaller voltage-drop per cable run and simplified fault finding.

2. On large installations install a 1.0mm power pair or a CW1308 with additional spare pairs to allow “doubling-up” on

power & 0V conductors. Increasing the cable cross section area will reduce its resistance therefore reducing the

amount of voltage-drop.

3. Looping back the power & 0V conductors from the last intercom to the controller will form a ring circuit which will

effectively halve the resistance.

4. An auxiliary power supply can be connected to the site wiring at a suitable point to boost the supply midway along

the cable run. The disadvantage of this being future Service Engineers may not be aware of PSU’s presence and the

network will remain powered when the controller is switched off.

IMPORTANT: Max current rating per CW1308 0.5mm core is 0.25A, therefore 1 pair = 0.5A

THE RESISTANCE OF CW1308 CABLE IS

APPROX 100 Ω PER 1000 METRES

Doc No. FM0804 issue 15 Page 14

10. NETWORK TERMINATION BOARD

The Advent XT2 termination board provides the interface between the main CPU board and the site wiring network.

LINK SETTINGS

Links LK1 & LK2 will normally be fitted in position A so the RS232 Port can be used to monitor the RS485 Network

data. Move the links to position B to monitor the 2nd RS485 Network data. Links LK3 & LK4 are not fitted.

RS232 PORT

The 9 pin “D” RS232 Port is used to connect a PC to monitor the XT2 RS485 Network data (19200 baud, 8 data bits, 1

stop bit, no parity). The link settings LK1 & LK2 must be changed to position B to monitor the 2nd RS485 Network data.

INPUTS 1-4

There are 4 inputs which can be activated by switching 0V via normally open clean contacts into terminals IP1-IP4.

report fire alarms via the Advent XT2 system. When 0V is applied to input 4 a “999” fire alarm call will be reported via

the current operating mode. If a PA Amplifier (ZXT901) is fitted, then at the same time a fire tone will start to sound

through all intercoms*. The fire tone will continue until input 4 is removed, i.e. when the buildings Fire Alarm Panel is

reset. *Note: if a PA Amplifier is fitted the fire tone can be disabled in the Onsite & General Set-up programming - see

the Advent XT2 Programming Manual (Doc No FM0815).

OUTPUTS

FERRITE CORE

Each leg of network wiring should be looped through a ferrite core before being

connected to the Termination board.

This will suppress any voltage transients induced on the Network wiring and

greatly reduce the likelihood of damage to the main CPU board.

Four ferrite cores are provided in the kit of parts with the Advent XT2 controller,

for additional ferrite cores order Tynetec P/No. T06050.

Other cable networks from previous systems can be used provided there are a minimum of 5 x 0.5mm twisted pairs maintained throughout the site.

Check the overall cable resistance from one end to another, check there is no resistance between cores and check the cables are voltage free.

NETWORK CABLE LIMITATIONS

The maximum network cable length is 1200 metres - beyond this it is likely you will experience problems relating to

voltage-drop, low audio levels and corrupt data. Voltage-drop can be overcome by increasing cable conductor size and

adding additional PSU’s. Low audio levels can only be overcome by increasing cable conductor size. Corrupt data can

be caused by cable length and/or too many devices on the network, a Network Data Repeater (P/No. ZXT340) is

available for extreme cases.

Doc No. FM0804 issue 15 Page 18

12. PA AMPLIFIER INSTALLATION

The Advent XT2 PA amplifier (P/No. ZXT901) allows the onsite manager to broadcast Public Address announcements

through all intercoms simultaneously. It can also be used to supplement the building’s Fire Alarm system by sounding

a fire alarm tone through all intercoms. One PA amplifier can drive 80 intercoms, for larger systems a second ZXT901

will be required and the site Audio 2 SP1 & SP2 wiring must be on a separate leg and terminated in SP3 & SP4 on the

Termination Board. Contact Tynetec’s customer support for advice on larger installations.

The PA amplifier lid should only be removed during installation and service – it must be screwed

shut at all other times to prevent the risk of electric shock.

Never leave a live PA amplifier unattended with the lid removed.

INSTALLATION

The PA Amplifier is housed in a steel enclosure 200x500x100 mm (HxWxD) and should be wall mounted below the

Advent XT2 controller. Fix the chassis to the wall using the 3 keyholes marked “A” below;

MAINS SUPPLY

The 240V AC mains supply should be taken from a local fused spur.

Connect the PA Amplifier to the fused spur using 0.5mm 3-core flex (Type 2183Y) and the IEC socket provided. Secure

the flex to the chassis using a cable tie to prevent the mains lead being inadvertently unplugged. The spur should be

fitted with a 5A fuse.

TERMINATION

3 cables are provided for connection to the Advent XT2 controller’s termination board - see table below for

connections and colour codes. Also see Drg. No. ZXT900 sheet 2.

2nd PA AMPLIFIER TERMINATION

On installations with more than 80 intercoms a second ZXT901 PA Amplifier is required. The EN/AUD/0V and data

RS485+/RS485- are simply connected in parallel with the first PA Amplifier, however the Transformer output of the

second PA Amplifier must be connected to the Termination Board PA AMP 2 INA/PA AMP 2 INB terminals.

IMPORTANT: when 2 PA Amplifiers are fitted the site wiring AUDIO 2 SP1/SP2 must be split into 2 legs. Ideally the

number of intercoms on each leg should be shared 50/50, i.e. if there’s 120 intercoms in total connect 60 on each leg

rather than 80 on one leg and 40 on the other. The 2nd leg must have the AUDIO 2 SP1/SP2 pair connected to the

Termination Board SP3/SP4 terminals instead. See Tynetec Drg. No. WD0298.

SMPSU & DC-DC MODULES

The 15V/105W switch mode power supply unit (P/No. W00586) is factory set to 13.75V DC output to supply the two

24V DC-DC converters and the PA amplifier board. This voltage also charges the 12V standby battery. The SMPSU has

solid state overload protection and contains no user serviceable parts.

The two 24V/50W DC-DC converter modules (P/No. W00590) are factory wired to provide +/- 24V DC supply for the

PA amplifier board. The DC-DC converters have solid state overload protection and contain no user serviceable parts.

VR1 & VR2 VOLUME ADJUSTMENT

Set the volume level of the fire alarm tone using VR1.

Set the volume level of the all call speech using VR2.

PROGRAMMING

The All Call and Fire Tone options must be enabled in the Onsite & General Setup programming - see the Advent XT2

Programming Manual (Doc No FM0815).

13. EXTERNAL BATTERY BOX INSTALLATION

The Advent XT2 external battery box (P/No. ZXT902) extends the system standby battery operating time from 12 to 24

hours*. This additional battery box is not mandatory, but it is recommended to fully comply with BS EN 50134-3:2012.

*24 hours battery standby is based on 5 calls per hour on a typical Advent XT2 system with 40 intercoms, 1 door entry

panel and 3 NTR’s. The IP-DECT system is supported by a UPS, if this fails all onsite calls are reported to the fixed desk

telephone.

INSTALLATION

The external battery box is housed in a steel

enclosure 230 x 185 x 80 mm (HxWxD).

This should be wall mounted as close as possible

to the Advent XT2 controller.

Check the battery leads can be routed through

the knockouts and trunking to the XT2 controller

before fixing to the wall.

DO NOT extend the battery leads.

Fix the chassis to the wall using the 3 holes

marked “A” shown here;

TERMINATION

The external battery box leads are simply connected in parallel with the existing standby batteries in the Advent XT2

controller using the 2 way tab to receptacle crimp adapter terminals provided.

IMPORTANT: Ensure correct polarity before connecting; RED LEAD +ve and BLACK LEAD -ve.
