FCC & I
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
NDUSTRY CANADA REGULATORY COMPLIANCE
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
•
Consult the dealer or an experienced technician for help.
FCC RF Exposure Information
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its action in Report and
Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic
energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously
set by both U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this module complies with the FCC guidelines and
these international standards. For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov.

Product overview
The NX-594 is a microprocessor-controlled GSM interface module used to connect the NetworX series of
control panels to GSM cellular networks for event reporting. The module can be used for primary, backup, or
additional reporting when used in conjunction with the panel communicator or other optional reporting
modules. Flexible event selection allows only specific messages to be reported, keeping airtime to a
minimum. The module has 9 LEDs to provide extensive diagnostic and setup information.
Website activation of new and replacement modules
You can activate and manage the module via our website address: www.numerexsolutions.com
You must have a dealer account set up before you can proceed. If your company already has an account set

The GSM module has a fixed address of 76. When programming the module, enter program mode and select
up, do the following:
1 At the bottom of the web page, click the activation link. The member Login screen appears.
2 At the Login screen, type your login name and password, then click Login.
3 The following options are available on the site map. If not displayed, select Site map under the
main menu.
Activate digital unit (new). This will activate the GSM module (NX-594). Enter the serial number of
the module (located on the front of the unit). The serial number must contain 10 digits. Multiple modules
can be added from this screen.

reporting for the module:
• Select the unit you have just activated.
• Add the account name to the Unit name field.
• Select your Notification Method 1.
• Change TX Retries to 8 (maximum allowed).
•
• Go to the appropriate field for the Method 1 that was chosen (Alpha, E-mail, or Central
Station).
• If Alpha pager, the PIN is required.
• If Central Station, enter the receiver phone number and central station A/C number.
• Select a second Notification Type, if needed.
• Notification Enabled should read “Yes”.

Enrolling the module
The NetworX control panels have the ability to automatically find and store in memory the presence of all
keypads, zone expanders, wireless receivers, and any other device on the keypad buss. This allows these
devices to be supervised by the control panel. To enroll the devices, enter program mode of the NX control
panel using the procedure described in the control panel documentation. When you exit program mode, the
control panel will automatically enroll all the devices. The enrolling process takes about 12 seconds, during
which time the service LED will illuminate. When using the LCD keypad, the “Service Required” message
the control panel does not detect it, the service LED will illuminate.

Installation
where the PC board will be seated. The end with
To install the module you will need to mount and wire the board.
Mounting
Inside the can, several two-holed insertion points have been constructed. This allows for either vertical or
horizontal placement of the modules. The insertion points have two sizes of holes, a larger hole and a smaller
hole. The black plastic PCB guides are grooved on one edge
the half-moon protrusion fits into the larger hole. The smaller hole is for the screw.
To mount the board, see Figure 2 and do the following:
1 Place the first black plastic PCB guide in the top insertion point, grooved edge downward. The
half-moon protrusion will be in the large hole. It does not require force.
2 Insert one of the provided screws into the smaller hole (from the inside of the can) to secure it in
place. A screwdriver should reach through the notch that runs the length of the guide to tighten the screw.
3 Position the second PCB guide opposite of the first (grooved edge up) and placed in the lower
insertion point, using the same procedure.
4 Once mounted, screw it in securely.
5 Slide the board in the grooves of both guides.
Note: Older style enclosures did not provide an exit hole for the antenna included with the GSM module. In such
cases, you must either drill a new hole (5/8 in.) on top of the can or use an optional external antenna (NX-501E-GSM).
