NetworX Version 3 Installation Manual

Appendix 7: EN 50131 compliance
This chapter describes guidelines, actions, default values and settings required for the NetworX V3
alarm system to reach compliance with the EN 50131 standard. EN 50131 is the European norm that
defines how intruder alarm systems should operate.
Setting the EN mode
When setting up a new EN 50131-compliant system you should perform the following actions:
1. Learn-in all (wired and wireless) keypads.
2. Enter the installer mode.
3. Execute RF Receivers>Switch to EN.
4. Execute Control Panel>Reset Settings>Switch to EN.
5. Execute This Keypad>Switch to EN.
6. Execute Other Keypads>Switch to EN for all other keypads.
7. Execute NX-7002 Module>Switch to EN.
8. Program remaining settings (like user codes, reporting, etc.).
9. Reset the control panel by switching the control panel’s power supply off and on
(including the battery).
When the existing system is being migrated to EN 50131-compliant settings, perform only
steps 2 to 8. Please note, that when the system is switched to EN many options take EN-specific
default values that may differ from the previously set ones. For the list of default EN values, see
Table 51 below.
Note: Setting the EN mode in the system without the telephone line connected or without the GSM modem configured
will cause the Fail to Communicate error. It is recommended to connect and configure both means of
communication when switching to the EN mode. If the telephone line is not going to be connected, the
Phone Line Cut Delay must be set to 0 after setting the EN mode (Control Panel>System
Settings>Timers>Communications>Phone Line Cut Delay). If GPRS is not going to be configured, Receiver
Polling must be set to Disabled (NX-7002 Module>Reporting>TCP/IP Reporting>Receiver Polling).
Please note, that the Switch to EN command causes configuration copying that takes about 15
additional seconds to finish after the menu is exited. It is strongly recommended to wait for all
actions to end before entering anything on the keypads in the updating system.
Note: Changing default EN options will make the panel not compliant with EN 50131 regulations, and any already
available Compliance labeling should be removed. In order to stay fully compliant with EN regulations these
options must stay set according to the
Table 51, only in this case it is allowed to add the compliance
labeling.
Note: The installer needs to learn-in I/O modules and sirens first and then to switch the Radio Module to the EN 50131
mode, otherwise default values for I/O modules and sirens will not be set automatically.
