PROGRAMMING THE NX-4 CONTROL PANEL
Programming the NX-4 control panel via the LED keypad
ENTERING THE PROGRAM MODE
To enter the program mode, press [*]-[8]. When you do this, the five function LED’s (Stay,
Chime, Exit, Bypass, and Cancel) will begin to flash. Next, enter the “Go To Program Code”
(FACTORY DEFAULT IS [9]-[7]-[1]-[3]). If the “Go To Program Code” is valid, the “Service” LED will
flash and the five function LED’s will illuminate steadily. You are now in the program mode,
ready to select the module to be programmed.
Note: it is impossible to enter program mode if any partition - or the system - is armed.
SELECTING THE MODULE TO PROGRAM
Since all the modules connected to the NX-4 are programmed through the keypad, the
module you are programming should be the first entry. To program the NX-4 control panel,
enter [0]-[#]. The [0] is the module number of the control panel and the [#] is the entry key.
Other module entry numbers can be found in the corresponding manuals.
PROGRAMMING A LOCATION
Once you have entered the number of the module to be programmed, the “Armed” LED will
light up, to show that it is waiting for a programming location to be entered. Any location can
be accessed by directly entering the desired programming location, followed by the
crosshatch (pound) [#] key. If the location you enter is valid, the “Armed” LED will go out, the
“Ready” LED will light up, and the binary data for the first segment of this location will be
shown by the zone LED’s. While entering new data, the “Ready” LED will begin flashing to
indicate that a data change is in process. The flashing will continue until the new data are
stored, by pressing the [*] key. When you press the [*] key, the keypad will advance to the next
segment and will display its data. Repeat this procedure until the last segment is reached.
Press the [#] key to exit from this location, and the “Armed” LED will light up again - this means
that it is waiting for a new programming location to be entered. If you want the next location
in the sequence, press the [POLICE] key. If you want the previous location, press the [FIRE] key.
If you want the same location, press the [MEDIC] key. To review the data in a location, repeat
the above procedure, pressing the [*] key without any numeric data entry. Each time you
press the [*] key, the programming data of the next segment will be displayed for review.
Note: Before programming the panel, the correct country code must be set in loc. 213
EXITING A LOCATION
After the last segment of a location has been programmed, press the [*] key to exit that
location; this turns the “Ready” LED off and the “Armed” LED on. As before, you are now ready
to enter another programming location. If you try to program an invalid entry for a particular
segment, the keypad sounder will emit a triple error beep (beep, beep, beep), and it will remain
in that segment awaiting a valid entry.
