Frequently Asked Questions – Expert Selection Guide

• Q1: Which sensors work with the infrared interface (Personality I)?
• A1: This transmitter works with Searchline Excel, Searchpoint Optima, and any generic 4-20 mA infrared sensor. It does not support electrochemical cartridges.
• Q2: Is this unit suitable for H2S or toxic gas detection?
• A2: No – this personality (I) is for infrared devices only. For electrochemical sensors, choose Personality E (XNX-AMSE).
• Q3: What is the advantage of the aluminium housing?
• A3: Aluminium is lightweight (2.8 kg) and corrosion-resistant for most industrial environments. For harsh or marine conditions, consider stainless steel.
• Q4: Does this transmitter include HART communication?
• A4: The unit supports HART EDDL for diagnostics, but the local HART option (NN) is not installed. You can add it via a separate accessory.
• Q5: How do I choose between XNX-AMAI and XNX-AMSE?
• A5: Choose XNX-AMAI if you use infrared sensors (Searchline/4-20mA). Choose XNX-AMSE for electrochemical toxic/O2 sensors. Check your sensor type before ordering.
