NX-8V2 Control Panel Installation Instructions

Introduction

This is the NX-8V2-Control Panel Installation Instructions.

Installations should only be done by trained professionals. Use this document to install the system with default settings that comply with UL requirements.

To install the keypad, other peripherals, and sensors, refer to the documentation for those devices.

Installation

There are four slots for board insertions inside the metal enclosure, two on the top and two on the bottom. These allow the PC board to be positioned vertically (Figure 1 below). When you slide the board between the grooves of the slots, make sure the terminal strip is toward the front opening (toward you) to allow for the wire connections.

Note: Install the metal enclosure with the door opening from the top to bottom.

Figure 1: Board installation

NetworX keypad maximum wire run

Table 1 below lists wire lengths for one keypad at the end of the wire. When connecting more than one keypad to the end of the wire, a higher gauge wire is required

a> These products have not been tested and approved by Underwriters Laboratories, In.

b> These wireless devices are UL listed only for residential applications.

Note: The NX-8V2 control panel sends a trouble condition once each hour if it senses that no devices have been enrolled. This report shows expander trouble--device zero (0).

Control panel programming

Programming the control panel requires you to enter program mode, select the module to program, program a location, and then exit the location and program mode.

Enter program mode

To enter program mode, do the following:

1.Press 8. The five function LEDs (Stay, Chime, Exit, Bypass, and Cancel) begin flashing.

2.Enter the go to program code (default is 9, 7, 1, 3). If the go to program code entry is valid, the Service LED flashes, and the five function LEDs illuminate. You are now in program mode and can select the module to program.

NX-8V2 Control Panel Installation Instructions

Select the module to program

Since all modules connected to the NX-8V2 are programmed through the keypad, the module you are programming should be the first entry. To select the module to program, enter 0, #. The 0 is the module number of the control, and # is the entry key. You can find other module entry numbers in the module documentation.

Program a location

Once you enter the module number, the Armed LED illuminates, indicating the keypad is waiting for you to enter a programming location. To program a location, do the following:

1.To access any location, enter the desired programming location, followed by #. If the location is a valid location, the Armed LED extinguishes, the Ready LED illuminates, and the binary data for the first segment of the location is shown by the Zone LEDs.

2.While entering new data, the Ready LED begins flashing to indicate a data change in process.

3.Press to store the newly entered data. The keypad advances to the next segment and displays its data. Repeat this procedure until the last segment is reached.

4.To move to another location after exiting a location (Armed LED illuminated):

•Press the Police key for the next sequential location.

•Press the Fire key for the previous location.

•Press the Medical key for the same location.

5.To review the data in a specific location, repeat the above procedure, pressing but with no numeric data entry. Each time you press , the programming data of the next segment displays.

Exit a location

To exit the current programming location, do the following:

1.Press the key. The Ready LED goes off and the Armed LED goes on. You must press the key to save the data.

2.To exit before the last segment, press # (Armed LED illuminates).

You are now ready to enter another programming location. If you attempt to program an invalid entry for a particular segment, the keypad beeps three times indicating an error and remains in that segment awaiting a valid entry.

Exit program mode

To exit program mode, do the following:

1.When you have completed all programming, press Exit to leave the selected module.

2.If there is another module to be programmed, select it by entering its address, followed by #. The procedure for programming these devices is the same as for the control panel, except the locations are for the module selected.

3.If no additional modules are to be programmed, press Exit again to leave program mode.

Loading factory defaults

To load factory defaults, enter program mode, enter the device address and number and then enter 9, 1, 0, #. The keypad beeps three times indicating that loading is in progress. The process takes about six seconds. You cannot exit the location until loading is completed.

Enrolling modules and keypads

The NX-8V2 automatically finds and stores all keypads, zone expanders, wireless receivers, and other modules connected to the data terminal into the NX-8V2 memory. This allows the modules to be supervised by the control panel.

To enroll the modules, do the following:

1.Enter program mode and program the desired settings for each module.

2.When you exit program mode, the NX-8V2 automatically enrolls the devices. The enrolling process takes about 12 seconds, during which time the Service LED illuminates. If a speaker is attached to the NX-8V2, it clicks at this time. If a siren or bell is attached to the NX-8V2, it sounds for about one second. If the module is not detected, the Service LED illuminates.

Note: User codes are not accepted during the enrolling process.

Quick start programming locations

For most routine installations, the quick start locations allow you to enable a majority of the options available with the NX8V2 (when communicating in Contact ID or SIA formats). The quick start locations include:

•Location 0 - Phone 1

•Location 1 - Phone 1 account code

•Location 2 - Phone 1 communicator format

•Location 3 - Phone 1 dial attempts/backup control

NX-8V2 Control Panel Installation Instructions

3

Location 0 - Phone 1

Location 0 has 20 segments of numerical data. Use this location to program phone 1. The default for each segment is 14.

•To program a delay of four seconds, enter 13 in the appropriate segment.

•To program tone dialing, enter 15 in the segment where tone dialing begins.

•If the entire number is tone dialing, enter 15 in the first segment.

•Enter 11 for a *, and 12 for a #.

Caution: A call-waiting cancel on a non call-waiting line prevents successful connection to the central station.

Location 1 - Phone 1 account code

Location 1 has six segments of numerical data. Use this location to program the account code sent when phone 1 is dialed. The default for each segment is 10. Program a 10 in the segment immediately after the last digit of the account code. If the account code is six digits long, program all six segments.

Location 2 - Phone 1 communicator format

Location 2 has one segment of numerical data. Use this location to program the communicator format used to transmit to the receiver connected to phone 1. Refer to your central station receiver documentation to determine which format is compatible. Table 4 below describes the formats for this location. If you need a format other than those listed, review the override options described in “Location 18 - Custom communicator format” on page 5 to build the appropriate format. Program a 15 to create a special format (in addition to the entries in Location 18). The default is 0. If this location contains a 0, the built-in communicator is disabled and the NX8V2 functions as a local-only control.
