Product Overview

The Honeywell XF823A is a 12-channel binary input module designed for Honeywell Panel Bus control systems. It collects discrete signals from field devices such as dry-contact switches and open-collector outputs and communicates their status to a compatible controller through the Panel Bus.

The module features a removable electronic unit and a separate terminal socket, allowing the electronics to be replaced without disconnecting field wiring or interrupting the bus and power connections. Each of its 12 inputs has a configurable LED indicator, and the inputs can also be configured as fast totalizers for pulse counting at frequencies up to 20 Hz.

The XF823A operates with compatible Panel Bus controllers, including the Honeywell XL800 and CPO-PC-6A, and supports DIN-rail installation.

Key Features

  • 12 binary input channels for dry-contact signals.
  • Configurable pulse counting up to 20 Hz.
  • Individual input LEDs with selectable status or alarm indication.
  • Removable electronic module for simplified maintenance.
  • Panel Bus communication and HEX-switch addressing.
  • Supports XS823 push-in and XSU823 screw-type terminal sockets.
  • Automatic configuration and commissioning through the controller.
  • Short-circuit and overvoltage protection.

Input Configuration and Wiring

The module provides 12 individually assigned binary inputs, BI1 through BI12.

Terminal Assignment
1–12 Binary inputs BI1–BI12
13–24 Corresponding GND terminals
71 / 72 Panel Bus communication COM A / COM B
73 / 74 24 VAC supply / return
75–78 Bus and power connections for adjacent modules
25 / 26 Shield connection

For dry-contact operation, each field contact is connected between its assigned binary input and GND. Open-collector devices can be used when the channel is configured for fast totalizer operation.

Compatible Terminal Sockets

Part Number Description
XS823 Push-in terminal socket for pluggable binary input modules
XSU823 Screw-type terminal socket for pluggable binary input modules
XS814 Optional auxiliary terminal blocks
XS816 Bridge connector

The terminal socket and electronic module are separate components. Socket inclusion should therefore be confirmed when ordering.

Applications

The XF823A is used in Honeywell Panel Bus building automation and control systems where discrete field signals must be collected and monitored. Typical functions include contact status monitoring, equipment running feedback, alarm contact supervision, and low-frequency pulse counting from compatible field devices.

Its configurable LED modes allow operators to distinguish normal input status indications from alarm indications during commissioning and troubleshooting.

FAQ

How many binary inputs does the Honeywell XF823A provide?

The Honeywell XF823A provides 12 binary input channels for monitoring dry-contact signals. Each channel has an LED indicator that can be configured for status or alarm display.

Can the Honeywell XF823A be used for pulse counting?

Yes. Its binary inputs can be configured as fast totalizers with a maximum counting frequency of 20 Hz. The minimum pulse ON and OFF times are both 25 ms.

Which terminal sockets are compatible with the XF823A?

The XF823A uses the XS823 push-in terminal socket or the XSU823 screw-type terminal socket. The electronic module can be removed without disconnecting the field wiring.

Which controllers are compatible with the Honeywell XF823A?

The XF823A communicates through Honeywell Panel Bus and can operate with controllers supporting this communication interface, including the XL800 and CPO-PC-6A.

What power supply does the Honeywell XF823A require?

The module supports 24 VAC or 24 VDC power. Its specified current consumption is 180 mA at 24 VAC and 130 mA at 24 VDC.
