One-zone Hardwire Module V2.0
(DGP2-ZX1)
Instructions
DGP2ZX1-EI02
The One-zone Hardwire Module (DGP2-ZX1) is an interface 
between the Digiplex (DGP-48) or DigiplexNE (DGP-NE96) control 
panels and any hardwired detection devices. The DGP2-ZX1 
connects to the Digiplex/DigiplexNE control panels’ communication 
network providing you with one additional hardwired input. 
WinLoad Security Management Software (refer to the WinLoad 
Software Help File for more information).
Section [001] - Option [1]
Tamper Recognition
The DGP2-ZX1 comes equipped with an on-board tamper switch. 
When option [1] is enabled in section [001] and the tamper switch 
is triggered, a Module Tamper report will be sent to the control 
panel via the communication network. 
INPUT SPEED TIMINGS
The input speed defines how quickly the input terminal on the 
DGP2-ZX1 responds to an open zone. The control panel will only 
respond if the zone remains open for the duration of the Input 
Speed. All other zone definitions and options don’t come into effect 
until the control panel has responded. This feature prevents any 
momentary glitches from causing an alarm or unnecessary 
reporting.
Input Speed = Base Time x Time Value. 
INSTALLATION
The DGP2-ZX1 modules are connected to the control panel’s 
communication network in a star and/or daisy chain configuration. 
The communication network consists of four wires that provide 
power and two-way communication between the control panel and 
all modules connected to it. Connect the four terminals labeled red, 
black, green, and yellow of each DGP2-ZX1 to the corresponding 
terminals on the control panel as shown in Figure 1 on the back of 
this instruction. Please refer to the appropriate control panel’s 
Installation & Reference Manual for maximum allowable installation 
distance from the control panel. 
ZONE CONNECTIONS
Each DGP2-ZX1 has one hardwired input terminal that will allow 
you to connect up to two (with ATZ enabled) non-bus detection 
devices to the Digiplex/DigiplexNE system. Each device connected 
to the DGP2-ZX1’s input terminal must be assigned to a zone in 
the control panel and the zone’s parameters must be defined. For 
more information, please refer to the appropriate control panel 
Installation & Reference Manual. The DGP2-ZX1 will communicate 
the status of the zones to the control panel through the 
communication network. Connect the devices to the DGP2-ZX1 as 
shown in Figure 1 on the back of this sheet. 
The DGP2-ZX1 follows the ATZ and EOL definitions set 
in the Digiplex/DigiplexNE control panels.
PROGRAMMING METHOD
From any keypad connected to the communication network: 
STEP 1: Press and hold the [0] key 
STEP 2: Enter the [INSTALLER CODE] 
STEP 3: Enter section [953] (DGP-48) / [4003] (DGP-NE96) 
STEP 4: Enter the DGP2-ZX1’s 8-digit [SERIAL NUMBER] 
STEP 5: Enter the 3-digit [SECTION] you want to program 
STEP 6: Enter the required data
Section [002]
Base Time
This section determines the unit of time to be multiplied by the 
Time Value. 
000 = 15 milliseconds 
001 = 1 second 
002 = 1 minute
Section [003]
Time Value
Enter a 3-digit decimal value between 001 and 255. This decimal 
value will be multiplied by the Base Time to determine the input 
speed. For example, if section [002] = 001 and section [003] = 030, 
the Input Speed will be 30 seconds.

Please note that the serial number is located on the DGP2-ZX1’s 
PC board. We recommend that you use the DGP2-ZX1’s 
programming sheet found in the Digiplex/DigiplexNE Modules’ 
Programming Guide to keep track of what was programmed and 
how. This module can also be programmed using the control 
panel’s Module Broadcast Feature (refer to the appropriate control 
panel Installation & Reference Manual) as well as through the
