WARNINGS & NOTICES
Ness Corporation manufacturing processes are accredited to ISO9001 quality standards and all possible care and
diligence has been applied during manufacture to ensure the reliable operation of this product. However there are
various external factors that may impede or restrict the operation of this product in accordance with the product’s
specification.
These factors include, but are not limited to:
1. Erratic or reduced radio range (if radio accessories are installed). Ness radio products are sophisticated low
power devices, however the presence of in-band radio signals, high power transmissions or interference caused
by electrical appliances such as Mains Inverters, Wireless Routers, Cordless Phones, Computers, TVs and other
electronic devices may reduce radio range performance. While such occurrences are unusual, they are possible.
In this case it may be necessary to either increase the physical separation between the Ness receiver and other
devices or if possible change the radio frequency or channel of the other devices.
2. Unauthorised tampering, physical damage, electrical interruptions such as mains failure, electrical spikes or
lightning.
3. Solar power inverters are a known source of electrical interference. Please ensure that this product and all
associated cabling is installed at least 3 metres away from a solar power inverter and its cabling.
WARNING: Installation and maintenance to be performed only by qualified service personnel.
CAUTION: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries in accordance
with local regulations.
ADSL NOTICE: ADSL broadband data can interfere with the operation of your alarm dialler. It is recommended that
a quality ADSL filter be installed as per the filter manufacturer's guidelines in premises with an alarm dialler installed.

INTRODUCTION
The Ness D8x and D16x microcomputer based
control panel is the heart of your
security system to which all your detection
devices connect.
Each Zone of the panel can be connected to one
or more detection devices to protect separate
rooms of your premises.
Detection devices may be wired to the panel or
you can use optional wireless detectors.
Passive Infra-Red motion detectors (PIRs) are
used to detect motion of people or animals.
Pet Aware motion detectors can ignore pets
and still detect people. Reed Switches are
fitted to windows and doors to detect opening.
Vibration sensors such as the Nessensor™ can
be used to detect glass breakage or forcing of
windows or doors.
Sealed. Activation

Detectors such as fire detectors and panic
buttons must be able to generate an alarm at
with this assignment is called a 24 hour zone.
Some detection devices may be required to
generate an alarm or warning only when the
is called a Day zone.
Before leaving the premises you must "Arm"
(turn on) the panel. After arming, the panel will
ignore detectors during the Exit Delay Time to
allow you to exit without triggering an alarm.
The system can be armed and disarmed using
the keypad supplied or by optional Radio Keys
or Access Cards or Fobs.
When you enter the premises the panel will

and will not alarm unless you disarm the panel
during this allowed time.
When an alarm occurs, it can be reset with a
User Code1 or by optional Radio Key or Access
Card/Fob2, otherwise it will reset at the end of
Alarm Reset Time. Resetting an alarm stops the
sirens and strobe light. If an alarm is not reset
the sirens will stop after the programmed time
(default is 5 minutes) and the strobe light will
stop after 72 hours.
Home Mode (also called Monitor mode)
and windows) can be monitored while you are
at home.
If you wish to split your alarm system into two
areas with access limited to each area by code
numbers then Area operation is used. Radio
Keys can also Arm and Disarm Areas.
The control panel housing and the covers
over external sirens are protected by tamper
switches to detect someone attempting to
disable the security system. Activation of these
switches will cause an instant tamper alarm.
If there is a problem with a detector, you can

The control panel is fitted with a rechargeable
backup battery to ensure your security system
continues to operate if the mains power is
interrupted. This control panel automatically
tests the battery every hour and whenever
you Arm/Disarm the panel. (Dynamic Battery
Test).
All alarms are stored in memory and can be
viewed at any time in Memory Mode.

Access Cards/Fobs can reset the panel if
the DISARM BY ACCESS CARD option has been
enabled by your installer.

OPERATION
OPERATING RULES
Generally, the panel will be Disarmed. Armed
and Home modes provide different levels of
security for your premises when you are home or
away. Three other temporary modes: Program,
Memory and Exclude, allow you to perform
various operations. The panel will automatically
exit from these temporary modes if you do not
press any buttons on the keypad in a 4 minute
period.
If you make a mistake while entering any codes,
press the Enter or E button and start again.
When you are required to enter your access
code, you are given five opportunities to enter it
correctly. After the fifth invalid attempt the alarm
is activated (requiring the correct code + E
to silence the alarm). This prevents anyone
trying to guess your code by entering random
numbers.
AREA PARTITIONING
two partitions; Area1 and Area2.
The panel then effectively operates as two
separate systems sharing only the siren outputs
and dialler.
USER CODE ASSIGNMENT
A User Code assigned to an Area can Arm
and Disarm only that Area. User Codes
assigned to both Areas will operate both Areas
simultaneously.
COMMON AREA ZONES
Zones assigned to both Areas are Armed only
when Area1 and Area2 are both Armed. This
by both Areas.
For example, Office A and Office B operate as
separate areas but the entrance foyer used by
both offices is assigned to both areas meaning
it will automatically Arm when both Areas have
Armed. The Common Area then automatically
disarms when either Area1 or Area2 Disarms.
AREA OPERATION
Arming and Disarming is carried out as normal
from a single keypad or separate keypads
installed in both areas or by Radio Key.
