GENERAL INFORMATION
The NX-4-EUR (from now on called NX-4) NetworX from Caddx represents a new approach to
the design of security systems. The NX-4 is probably the most flexible, durable, and user-
friendly control panel ever seen in our industry. Its features include sophisticated software
enabling as many as 8 users to interface with 4 zones, wireless expandable up to 8 zones, with
access, audio verification, and input/output modules, all reported with SIA and Contact ID
formats which are extremely fast and very comprehensive. Thanks to the NetworX design, a
fully loaded system can be housed in one single metal enclosure, establishing for the first time,
a logical solution and design response to modular systems. Two modules can be added to
expand the capabilities of the NX-4.
ORDERING INFORMATION
For detailed ordering information and part numbers, please refer to the EMEA Distribution
price list of the Caddx product range.

FEATURE DEFINITIONS
Abort
If this option is enabled, the NX-4 will wait the programmed number of seconds (0-255) in
location 40 prior to sending an alarm. During this delay time, the “Cancel” LED will flash. To
abort the report, type in a code and press the [Cancel] key. The LED will go out. If the report is
not aborted within the allotted time, the LED will go out when the report is sent. The dialler
delay is programmed at location 40, segment 8. Each zone can be defined as a “dialler delay
zone” by defining the relevant option in segment 3 of the appropriate zone configuration
group (see locations 110-169).
AC fail / low battery report/warning

The NX-4 can be programmed to report an AC failure and/or low battery conditions to the
central station. Low battery will be detected as the battery gets discharged down to 10,5Vdc
and lower. It can also be programmed to sound the keypad immediately when the condition is
detected. The AC failure report/warning can be delayed (see locations 37, 39 and 40).
AC power / low battery sounder alert

If this option is enabled, the NX-4 will beep the keypad sounder upon arming or disarming, if
the AC power is not present or if a low battery has been detected (see location 23, segment 2).
Arm / disarm codes

The NX-4 can have 8 four-digit or six-digit codes to arm/disarm the control panel. All the
codes must have the same number of digits. The factory default for user 1 is [1]-[2]-[3]-[4]
when using a 4-digit code, or [1]-[2]-[3]-[4]-[5]-[6] for a 6-digit code. This code can then be
used to enter the new arm/disarm codes (see location 41).
Automatic arming
If programmed, the NX-4 will Auto Arm at a specified time. At this time, the keypad will start
beeping before the panel arms and this for the amount of time set as warning time (warning
timer). The arming process will be stopped during the warning time if a code is entered on the
keypad or when movement has been detected. The NX-4 will attempt to arm again after the
amount of time set as retry time (retry timer) until the next “opening” time (loc. 52), or until the
system is armed. The panel will not try to re-arm if the retry feature has been disabled. If a
zone is faulted before the warning timer starts and stays faulted when the panel tries to auto-
arm, the zone will automatically be bypassed. The auto arming of a partition can be
programmed so that it is silent. If closing reports are sent, the user code will be 97 (see
locations 23 segment 2, location 40 segment 12 and 13 and location 52-55).
Automatic bypass / instant arming

When this option is enabled, the control panel can automatically bypass interior follower
zones if no exit is detected during the exit delay time. Entry delay zones can also be made
instant (see location 23, segments 1 and 2).
Auto cancel
If enabled, the Cancel and/or Abort features will be automatic (pressing the [Cancel] button is
not required). The Cancel and Abort features, in locations 23 & 40 respectively, must be
enabled to permit this Auto feature to work. For proper operation of these features, “Dialer
Delay” must be enabled in the zone configuration group (see locations 110-169).

Auto-test
This feature will cause the panel to call the central station, in order to report a communicator
test at a specified interval (see location 51). Also, the auto-test report may be enabled ONLY
when the control panel is armed see location 37 segment 4).
Auxiliary outputs
The NX-4 has two programmable outputs that can be used to activate LED’s, sirens, flashes,
etc. (see the terminal description and locations 47-50).
Auxiliary power overcurrent

The NX-4 will light up the “Service” LED on the keypad whenever too much current is being
drawn from any device powered by the system. This condition can be reported to the central
station (see location 37 segment 3).
A+B alarm reporting (Sweden)

When this feature is enabled, a first trigger from a zone will send a BG report
(unverified alarm or B-alarm) for that zone. The B-alarm message will be written in the log. In
addition, a fix 30 minutes timer will start. If a zone is triggered for a 2nd time within the 30
minutes time frame, this zone will send a BA report (burglary alarm or verified alarm) to the
monitoring station. If there is no 2nd zone that was triggered within 30 minutes, the timer will
be cleared. A+B alarm reporting only works with intrusion zone types using the SIA formats.
When this feature is enabled, the standard cross-zoning feature will be in-active (see location
37 segment 3).
Box tamper
The NX-4 has an input for a normally closed tamper switch (see wiring diagram). The box
tamper can be programmed to report, and/or sound the siren and/or the keypad. These
terminals can be enabled or disabled by programming (see locations 37 segment 2 and 3, and
location 39).
Built In siren driver

The NX-4 has a built-in 112 dB siren driver. If desired, this built-in driver can easily be
converted to a 1 amp voltage output by programming (see location 37 segment 2).
Bypass toggle
This feature will enable the end user to toggle (turn on or off) the bypass of an interior zone
while the system is armed. This is done by pressing the [Bypass] key (see location 23 segment
2).
Call back
When this feature is enabled, the control panel will use the call back phone number to call the
download computer before it begins a download (see locations 21 and 22).
Cancel
If this feature is enabled, the NX-4 will send a “Cancel” report when the system is disarmed
and the [Cancel] button is pressed within 5 minutes of an alarm. Once the [Cancel] key has
been pressed, the “Cancel” LED will light up until the central station acknowledges the “Cancel”
report (see location 23 segment 3).
Chime
This feature can be turned on and off using the “chime” key. When the system is in the
disarmed state, a trip on selected zones will generate either a DING-DONG or a single tone
through the keypad sounder (depending on the keypad programming). This lowest level of
security can be enabled by zone; this is done by programming the appropriate zone
configuration for it, or by customizing its zone configuration (see locations 111-169).

Code required options
The NX-4 can be programmed to require a code in order to bypass zones and/or to initiate a
download using the [*]-[9]-[8] or [*]-[9]-[9] function (see locations 23 segment 2 and 41).
Communication formats
The NX-4 can report in multiple formats. You are recommended to use Contact ID or SIA
formats if possible. If you wish to report to a private phone (using the voice module) or to a
central station in a 4+2 format, you must program each code that is to be reported (see
locations 56-83 and 111-169).
Configuration groups
The NX-4 has 30 configuration groups that determine how each zone will function and report.
The default configuration groups are listed on pages 44-46. All configuration groups are fully
programmable via downloading and via the keypad (see locations 111-169).
Country code
The NX-4 has the ability to set different “country codes”. Each country code has specific
default settings. Before start programming the NX-4, it is important to select the country code
that is required. Once the country code has been selected, it will remain set, even after an
installer reset. When changing the country code during programming, all existing
programming will be cleared to the defaults for that country (see location 213).
Cross zoning
This feature requires two or more trips within a specified time on one or more zones that are
programmed as “cross zones” before it will report an alarm. During the time between trips, the
NX-4 can be programmed to sound the keypad and/or the siren. The NX-4 can also be
programmed to report an alarm after two or more trips on the same zone. The first trip on a
cross-zone is also logged (see locations 37 segment 1, 39, 40 and 110-169).
Daylight savings time

The NX-4 has the possibility to switch automatically from summer to wintertime and vice
versa. This option will move the clock backward on the last Sunday of October (3 a.m.
becomes 2 a.m.) and will move the clock forward on the last Sunday of March (2 a.m. becomes
3 a.m.) (see location 37, segment 5, option 8).
Dual / split / multiple reports

The NX-4 can send communication reports to three different phone numbers for dual, split or
multiple reports selectable by event (see locations 4, 10, and 16).
Duress code
If a duress code is programmed, the NX-4 will send a duress signal whenever the panel is
armed or disarmed with this code. If open/close reports are sent, the user code will be 254
(see location 44).
Dynamic battery test

The NX-4 can be programmed to perform a dynamic battery test for a selected duration when
the panel is armed or disarmed for the first time each day. The NX-4 can also be programmed
to perform a ‘missing battery’ test every 12 seconds (see locations 37 segments 2 and 3 and
location 40).

End of line resistor defeat
The NX-4 can be programmed to make zones 1-4 for normally closed operation only,
eliminating the need of the end of line resistors on these zones. When a zone is programmed
for normally closed operation, a short on that zone will not change the loop condition, and an
open on that zone will produce a faulted condition. This feature will be ignored by any priority
zone (see locations 110-169).
Entry-guard
This unique low level arming mode has been developed to reduce the most common source of
false alarms. When armed in the “Stay Instant” mode, opening any zone designated as an
“Entry Guard Zone” will initiate the keypad sounder and start the entry delay before
generating an alarm. All the other zones will function as normal. This arming mode will
encourage system owners to use their systems more frequently when the premises are
occupied (see locations 111-169).
Exit error / Exit error Delay 1

If the option Exit error is enabled on location 23 segment 3, the NX-4 will send an “Exit Error
Report” when an entry/exit zone is faulted, at the instant the exit delay expires. If also the
option “Exit Error Delay 1” is enabled on location 37 segment 7, the NX-4 will send an “Exit
Error Report” when only an entry/exit delay 1 zone is faulted, at the instant the exit delay
expires. An entry/exit delay 2 zone that is faulted at the end of the exit delay will not have
siren activation and will not log an exit error. The “Exit Error Report” will be sent together with
the user number that was used to arm the system, provided that the panel is not disarmed
before the entry delay expires. The alarm report will also be sent. If both features “Exit Error
Report” and “Exit Error Delay 1” are not enabled the siren will sound if any entry/exit zone is
faulted, as soon as the exit delay expires. If the option “Exit Error Delay 1” is enabled, the siren
will sound if only an entry/exit 1 zone is faulted (see location 23 segment 3 and location 37
segment 7).
Expander trouble
The NX-4 will report expander trouble to the central station if this option is enabled. This
condition will light up the “Service” LED on the keypad, even if it is not reported.
NOTE: The keypads are considered to be expanders. The number of expansion devices that
are reported can be found in appendix 3 (see location 37 segment 3).
Early to Open/ Late to Close

If an opening occurs before the opening and closing times, the NX-4 will send an “Early Open”
report. If it fails to close on or before the designated closing time, the NX-4 will send a “Late to
Close”report. (see location 23 segment 4)
Fail to communicate
The NX-4 will light up the “Service” LED if a report fails to reach the central station. If this
option is enabled, a fail to communicate code will be reported when the next report is
successfully communicated. A fail to communicate is always logged as “data lost” (see
location 37 segment 4).
Final set door

If this feature is enabled, it will only be applicable for secondary entry/exit zones (f.e.
configuration group 9 or 19). If the final set door option is enabled, the exit time will
immediately expire as soon as the secondary entry/exit zone (type 9 or 19) becomes ready
again. This feature can only be used in combination with magnetic contracts (see location 23,
segment 2, option 8).

Fire alarm verification
When this feature is enabled, the NX-4 will verify a fire alarm by requiring more than one trip
on a smoke detector (the same or another one) within a specified time (120-255 seconds)
before it generates an alarm (see location 40 segment 9).
Force arming
If this option is enabled, the NX-4 can be “Force Armed” when zones have been violated. In this
condition, the “Ready” LED will flash if a “Force Armable” zone is not secure. At the end of the
exit delay, these zones will become bypassed, unless the option “No auto-bypass for force
armable zones” is set (location 23, segment 5 option 1). If these zones become secured at any
time during the arming cycle, they will be unbypassed and will become active in the system. If
“Bypass Report” is enabled, the force arming zones can be programmed to report bypass
when they are force armed (default), or not to report bypass even if “Bypass Report” is enabled
(see locations 37 segment 5, and 111-169 segment 2).
Group bypass
A designated group of zones can be programmed to bypass by pressing [Bypass]-[0]-[0]-
[Bypass] prior to arming (see locations 111-169 segment 2).
Immediate restore by zone

The NX-4 can be programmed to send alarm and restore reports as soon as they occur, or to
wait until the siren time has expired or the system has been disarmed. (see location 37
segment 2).
Internal event log

Up to 512 events can be stored in memory together with the date and time of the event. These
events can be viewed later on via the LCD keypad, or by downloading. All reportable events
are reported to the log.
Keypad activated panics

The NX-4 has three keypad activated panics that will send reports to the central station,
auxiliary 1 (Fire), auxiliary 2 (Medical) and keypad panic. Auxiliary 1 will activate the steady
(Fire) siren, auxiliary 2 will sound the keypad, and the keypad panic can be programmed to be
silent or audible (see location 23 segment 1).
Keypad shutdown mode

This feature will extinguish all the LED’s on the keypad, except the “Power” LED, after 60
seconds have elapsed without a keypress. Pressing a valid user code (not an installer code) will
light up all the LED’s (see location 41, segment 1, option 5). This option requires bilingual LCD
keypads. This option is an alternative for LED-extinguish.
Keypad sounder control

The NX-4 can be programmed to sound the keypad sounder for certain events (see location
39).
Keypad tamper
If this option is enabled, the NX-4 will disable the keypad for 60 seconds, and will
communicate a tamper signal to the central station whenever 30 keypresses are entered
without producing a valid code (see location 23 segment 1).
Keyswitch arm/disarm
Any zone on the NX-4 can be programmed as a momentary or maintained keyswitch zone. If a
zone has been programmed as a momentary keyswitch, momentary shorts on this zone will
arm/disarm the control. A zone can be also being programmed as a maintained keyswitch.
The control panel will be armed as long as such a zone is shorted. A keyswitch zone can arm
in AWAY or STAY mode (see location 23, segment 4, option 8). If opening/closing reports are
sent, the user code will be 99 (see “default zone configurations”)

LED extinguish
This feature will extinguish all the LED’s on the keypad, except the “Power” LED, after 60
seconds have elapsed without a keypress. Pressing any numeric key will light up all the LED’s
(see location 23 segment 2).
Local programming lockout

This feature will disable programming of all locations, or for specified locations, from the
keypad (see location 21).
Log full report

A report can be sent to the central station when the event log is full (see location 37 segment
4).
Log protection
This feature will prevent a single, non-zone reportable event to fill up the event memory. The
event will only be logged for a maximum of 3 times between closings or code entry. (see
Lost clock service light

The NX-4 can be programmed to light up the “Service” LED on a LED keypad or give a “Service”
message on a LCD keypad when the internal clock time is invalid due to power loss. On LCD
keypads, if programmed to show the system time, a “Set Clock, *97” message will always be
displayed (see location 37 segment 5).
Manual test
The NX-4 can be programmed to perform a bell and/or communicator test; to do this, enter
[*]-[4]-[4] while the system is in the disarmed state. Each time that [*]-[4]-[4] is entered, a
dynamic battery test will also be performed (see location 37 segment 2).
Night Mode
Applies to NX-1208E / NX-1248E keypads. In this mode, the control panel will bypass all zones
that have the Entry Guard feature enabled. (See location 23 and 111-169)
On board zone disable

The 4 zones on the NX-4 panel can be disabled, in order to obtain a completely wireless alarm
system. A mix of hardwired and wireless zones is also possible (see location 37 segment 5).
Program code
The factory default for the “Go To Program” code is [9]-[7]-[1]-[3] when using a 4-digit code; or,
if the 6-digit option is used, the default is [9]-[7]-[1]-[3]-[0]-[0]. The program code can also be
used as an arm/disarm code. If it is used as an arm/disarm code, and if open/close reports are
sent, the user code will be 255 (see location 43).
Quick arm feature

The NX-4 has a single-button “Quick Arm” feature which can be used to arm the system by
pressing the [Exit] key or the [Stay] key on the keypad. If closing reports are sent, the user code
will be 98 (see location 23 segment 1).
Recent closing
If this option is enabled, the NX-4 will send a “Recent Closing Report” to the central station if
an alarm occurs within 5 minutes after the panel is armed. The user number that was used to
arm the system will also be sent (see location 23 segment 3).
Re-exit
The NX-4 can restart the exit delay for a quick exit without the need to disarm the system; this
is done by pressing the [Exit] key while the system is still armed (= after exit delay has expired).
The re-exit is also logged (see location 23 segment 1).

Shutdown
This mode will cause the keypads to extinguish all LED’s, except the “Power” LED, and to refuse
keypresses (see location 21).
Siren blast for arming

The NX-4 can be programmed to give a one-second siren blast when the panel is armed, at
the end of the exit delay, or when the central station receiver acknowledges the closing report.
It can also give one blast for remote (keyswitch) arming, and two blasts for remote disarming
(see location 37 segment 1).
Siren supervision
The NX-4 has a “Siren Supervision” circuit that will constantly monitor the siren on the NX-4; it
can also be programmed to report if the wires are cut (see location 37 segment 3).
Silent exit option

The exit delay can be silenced by pressing [*]-[Exit] before arming the control panel, or when
using the re-exit feature. The exit delay can also be silenced permanently in all partitions (see
Start/end programming and end downloading

A report can be sent when local programming is started and ended. A report can also be sent
when a download session ends (see location 37 segment 4).
Swinger shutdown
This feature allows one or more zones to be bypassed automatically after a specified number
of alarms (from 0 to 255). If immediate restore is enabled in location 37, the alarms (and
restores, if this option is enabled) will be sent as they occur. If immediate restore is not
enabled, a second or subsequent alarm will not be sent until the siren times out (see location
37 segment 2 and location 38).
Telephone line monitor

The NX-4 has a telephone line monitor which monitors the voltage and current of the
telephone line, in order to detect a faulty phone line. This condition can also be reported to the
central station. If the report is enabled, only the telephone line restore will be reported. A
telephone line cut is always logged (see locations 37 segment 3, location 39 and location 40
segment 5).
Two call answering machine defeat

If this option is enabled, two telephone calls must be made to the premises in order to defeat
an answering machine. On the first call, let the phone ring one or two times. The control panel
will detect these rings and start a 45-second timer; during this time, the control panel will
answer the next call on the first ring. This is not recommended for commercial applications
(see location 21).
User authorization to enter program mode

Entering program mode via the installer code is only possible within 60 seconds following a
user code entry (see location 41,segment1, option 6).
Walktest mode
Walktest mode is used to test your system without activating the siren and/or communicator.
The walktest mode is activated by pressing [*]-[chime] followed by the master code.
Walktest mode is not possible if any partition is armed or if the communicator is active.
Wireless sensor absent/low battery

The NX-4 will send a report to the central station when a wireless sensor has detected a low
battery, or has not reported to the receiver. The “Service” LED will light up when either of these
conditions exists (see location 37 segment 4).

Zone activity monitor
This feature will send a report to the central station when a particular zone does not change
conditions within the specified number of hours/days programmed (see location 37, location
40 and locations 110-169).
Zone bypassed sounder alert

With this feature enabled, if a zone is bypassed, the NX-4 will beep the keypad sounder when
the zone is armed (see location 23 segment 2).
Zone Doubling
This feature allows you to use the four zones on the panel as eight normally closed zones.
When this feature is used, European double E.O.L. configuration cannot be used. THIS FEATURE
DOES NOT INCREASE THE TOTAL NUMBER OF AVAILABLE ZONES BEYOND 8. If one of the eight
zones must be a fire zone, it must be one of Zones 1 to 4. The corresponding upper zone will
become unavailable. For example: if Zone 4 is a fire zone, then Zone 8 will not be available.
(See location 37, segment 5).

PROGRAMMING THE NX-4 KEYPADS
Programming the LED keypads

This section describes how to program the address and partition for each keypad, and it also
explains the options that are available. The address of the keypad is important because the
panel uses it to supervise the keypads.
The factory default for the master code is [1]-[2]-[3]-[4] when using a 4-digit code, or [1]-[2]-
[3]-[4]-[5]-[6] for a 6-digit code. The factory default for the “Go To Program” code is [9]-[7]-[1]-
[3] for a 4-digit code, or [9]-[7]-[1]-[3]-[0]-[0] for a 6-digit code.
[*]-[9]-[3] SET KEYPAD OPTIONS
1. Enter [*]-[9]-[3] [program code]- the “Service” LED will flash.

2. LED’s 1-8 can now be toggled on/off to enable/disable the following functions:
3. After enabling/disabling the desired functions press [*]

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.

EXITING THE PROGRAM MODE
When all the desired changes in programming have been made, it is time to exit the program
mode. Press the [Exit] key to exit this programming level, and go to the “Select a Module To
Program” level. If no additional modules are to be programmed, press the [Exit] key again to
exit the program mode. If there is a module to be programmed, you can select it by entering
its address, followed by the [#] key (see “Selecting the Module To Program” above). The
procedure for programming these devices is the same as for the control panel, except that the
locations will be for the module selected.
Note: the timeout for the program mode is 15 minutes.
PROGRAMMING DATA
There are only two possible types of programming data. One type of data is numerical: data of
this type can assume values from 0 -15 or 0 -255, depending on the location's segment. The
other type is feature selection data: this data is used to turn features on or off. Use the
following procedures when working with these two data types:
Numerical data: entering a number from 0-255 on the numeric keys of the system keypad
programs numerical data. To view the data in a location, a binary process is used. With this
process, the LED’s for zones 1 through 8 are utilized, and the numeric equivalents of their
illuminated LED’s are added together to determine the data in a programming location. The
numeric equivalents of these LED’s are as follows:
Zone 1 LED = 1 Zone 2 LED = 2 Zone 3 LED = 4 Zone 4 LED = 8
Zone 5 LED = 16 Zone 6 LED = 32 Zone 7 LED = 64 Zone 8 LED = 128
Example: If the numerical data to be programmed in a location is “66”, press [6]-[6] on the
keypad. The LED’s for zone 2 and zone 7 will light up, showing that 66 is in this location (2 + 64
= 66). See the example p. 26.
Once the data has been programmed, press the [*] key to enter the data, and advance to the
next segment of that location. After the last segment of a location has been programmed,
press the [*] key to exit from 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 a number that is too large for a particular segment, the keypad sounder will emit a
triple beep to indicate an error, and will remain in that segment awaiting a valid entry. Remark:
On the LCD keypad, the number in the location will be displayed. For locations with a
maximum of 15, the hexadecimal equivalent will be displayed in parenthesis. Example: 11 (B)
or 14 (E).
Feature selection data: feature selection data will display the current condition (on or off) of
eight features associated with the selected programming location and segment. If you press a
button on the keypad (1 to 8) that corresponds to the “feature number” within a segment, this
will toggle the feature (on/off). By pressing any numeric key between [1] and [8] to select a
feature, you will make the corresponding LED light up (feature ON). Press the number again,
and the LED will go out (feature OFF). You will see that numerous features can be selected
from within one segment. For instance, if you want all eight features of a segment, pressing
[1]-[2]-[3]-[4]-[5]-[6]-[7]-[8] will turn on LED's 1 to 8 as you press the keys, indicating that those
features are enabled. After you have selected the setting of the features for this segment,
press the [*] key. This will enter the data and advance automatically to the next segment of
the location. When you are in the last segment of a location and you press the [*] key to enter
the data, you will exit from that location as well. This will turn off the “Ready” LED, and will turn
on the “Armed” LED. As before, you are now ready to enter another programming location.

LOADING FACTORY DEFAULTS
To load the factory defaults, enter the program mode using the procedure on page 24, then
type [9]-[1]-[0]-[#]. The keypad will beep 3 times to indicate that loading is in progress. The
loading takes about 6 seconds.
ENROLLING MODULES AND KEYPADS

For supervision purposes, the presence of all keypads, zone expanders, wireless receivers, and
any other modules connected to the data terminal can automatically be found and stored in
the NX-4’s memory. This allows the control panel to supervise these modules. To enroll the
modules, enter the program mode for the NX-4 control panel as described above. If necessary,
go on to program the rest of the control panel and the devices. When you exit from program
mode, the control panel will automatically enroll the devices. The enrolling process takes
about 12 seconds, during which time the “Service” LED will light up. If a module has been
enrolled but it is not detected by the control, the “Service” LED will light up.
PROGRAMMING EXAMPLE (Numerical data)

numbers 1-8 in the first 8 characters. If the number appears, this binary switch is on. If
minuses sign (-) appears where the number should be, this switch is off. Toggle the numbers
on or off, using the corresponding number digit (1 to toggle 1, 8 to toggle 8). When the
numbers are in the desired state, press the [*] key. The data will be entered and the segment
will be incremented by 1. The data for this segment will now be displayed. Continue this
process until the last segment is programmed. When you reach the last segment, the keypad
will prompt you for the next location. If you wish to exit this location before the last segment is
reached, press the [#] key. This keypress will not save the changes made to current segment,
but will exit the location. To proceed to the next location, press the [Police] key. To return to the
previous location, press the [Fire] key. To re-enter the last location, press the [Medic] key.

CHARACTER DATA: Character data is used to enter LCD text when programming (see [*]-[9]-
[2] feature for custom messages). Custom zone descriptions and messages are stored using
character or ASCII data types. This information is programmed using the bottom line of the
display as a text editor. Once a character location has been entered, the current data will be
displayed on the bottom line. As always, the top line will display the current location and
segment number. The five (5) function keys, as well as the ‘up’ and ‘down’ arrows to the right
of the display, are now used to edit the message before saving it back to the location storage.
An underscore (_) in the display indicates the current cursor location. To move the cursor to
the right, press the [*] key. To move the cursor to the left, press the [Cancel] key. To change
the character at the current cursor location, press the Up or Down Arrow until the desired
character is displayed. To accept this character, press the [*] key. The character will remain,
and the cursor will advance one space to the right.

EXITING THE PROGRAM MODE

When you have made all the desired changes in programming, it is time to exit the program
mode. Press the [Exit] key to exit this programming level, and go to the “Select a Module To
Program” level. If no additional modules are to be programmed, press the [Exit] key again to
exit the program mode. If there is a module to be programmed, you can select it by entering
its address, followed by the [#] key (see “Selecting the Module To Program” above). The
procedure for programming these devices is the same as for the control panel, except that the
locations will be for the module selected.
Note: the timeout for the program mode is 15 minutes.
LOADING FACTORY DEFAULTS

To load the factory defaults, enter the program mode using the above procedure, then type
[9]-[1]-[0]-[#]. The keypad will beep 3 times to show that loading is in progress. The loading
takes about 6 seconds.
ENROLLING MODULES AND KEYPADS

For supervision purposes, the presence of all keypads, zone expanders, wireless receivers, and
any other modules connected to the data terminal can automatically be found and stored in
the NX-4’s memory. This allows the control panel to supervise these modules. Note: All
modules should be connected and set to unique addresses before modules are enrolled. To
enroll the modules, enter the program mode of the NX-4 control panel as described above. If
necessary, go on to program the rest of the control panel and devices. When you exit from
program mode, the control panel will automatically enroll the devices. The enrolling process
takes about 12 seconds, during this time the “Service Screen” will be displayed. If a module
has been enrolled but it is not detected by the control, the “Service Screen” will be displayed.

IMPORTANT REMARKS
Tamper memorization
If location 37 segment 6 option 8 is set, tamper alarm indications (zone tampers and box
tampers) can be erased by entering a valid user code.
If location 37 segment 6 option 8 is not set, tamper alarm indications (zone tampers and box
tampers) can only be erased by entering the program mode. In this case, tamper alarm
indications can only be reset by the installer.
Disabling tamper alarms in program mode

Tamper alarms (originating from zones and boxes) will be disabled during program mode. This
allows the installer to service the system without generating unwanted tamper alarms. Note
that the timeout for the program mode is 15 minutes.
Country code
that is required. Once the country code has been selected, it will remain set, even after an
installer reset. When changing the country code during programming, all existing
programming will be cleared to the defaults for that country (see location 213).
Keypad tamper lockout

When this option is enabled (see location 23, segment 1), the NX-4 will disable the keypad for
60 seconds, and will communicate a tamper signal to the central station if 30 key presses are
entered without producing a valid code.

CONTROL PANEL PROGRAMMING LOCATIONS
For most routine installations, the “Quick Start” option will allow for enabling a majority of the
options available with the NX-4, when communicating in Contact ID or SIA formats and without
partitioning. The “Quick Start” locations can be identified by the symbol.
Telephone number 1
LOCATION 0 - PHONE N° 1 (20 segments, numerical data)
The first telephone number is programmed in location 0. A “14” indicates the end of the phone
number. Delays of four seconds can be programmed at any point in the phone number by
programming a “13” in the appropriate segment. The system will always wait for a dial tone,
unless the first digit of the phone number is a “13”; in this case, it will only delay. Tone (DTMF)
dialling is default. If you want pulse tone dialling, program a “15” in the segment where pulse
dialling should begin. If the entire number should be pulse dialling, program a “15” in the first
segment. Program an “11” for a “*”, and a “12” for a “#”.
Note: a zero is programmed as a “0”.
LOCATION 1 - ACCOUNT CODE FOR PHONE N° 1 (6 segments, numerical data)
Location 1 is used to program the account code that is sent when phone N°1 is dialled. A zero
in the account code is programmed as a “0”. A “10” indicates the end of the account code, so
program a “10” in the segment immediately after the last digit of the account code. If the
account code is 6 digits long, program all 6 segments.
LOCATION 2 - COMMUNICATOR FORMAT FOR PHONE N° 1 (1 segment, numerical data)
Location 2 contains the communicator format used to transmit to the receiver that is
connected to phone N°1. Consult the instructions for your central station receiver to
determine which format is compatible. Select a format from the list on the following page. If
you require a format other than those listed, review the override options described in location
18 in order to create the appropriate format. In order to create a special format, a “15” must
be programmed in location 2 in addition to the entries in location 18. If this location contains a
“0”, the built-in communicator will be disabled, and the NX-4 will function as a ‘local only’
control.
LOCATION 3 - DIAL ATTEMPTS/BACKUP CONTROL FOR PHONE N° 1 (2 segm., numerical data)
Segment 1- Dial attempts: Location 3, segment 1 is used to enter the number of dial attempts
(1 to 15) which the communicator will make to phone N°1 before it ends the notification
process. Factory default is “8” and the communicator will make 8 attempts to the first number.
There will be a waiting time of 12 seconds between the first two dial attempts, and a
waiting time of 60 seconds between each subsequent dial attempt.

Segment 2- Phone N° 1 backup control: Programming a “0” in segment 2 of this location will
cause the NX-4 to make the designated number of attempts to phone N°2 before setting the
“Fail To Communicate” condition and stop reporting. Programming a “1” in this segment will
cause the NX-4 to stop trying to communicate after the designated number of attempts have
been made to phone N°1. If a “2” is programmed in this segment, it will cause the NX-4 to
make the dial attempts in increments of two. The first two attempts will be made to phone
N°1, the next two attempts to phone N°2, then repeating until the total number of attempts
designated in Segment 1 is completed.

Reporting events to phone number 1
Phone N°1 has two programming locations that are used to select the events which are
reported to this phone number.
Location 4 is used to select which events are reported to phone N°1. Location 5 is used to
select which partitions are reported to phone N°1. If you do not want dual or split reporting,
use location 4 to select all events to phone N°1, and leave location 5 at the factory default of
“0”. If you want dual or split reporting, and the split is based on the event type (such as alarm,
open/close, etc.), you should use location 4 to select only those events that should be reported
to phone N°1, and you should leave location 5 at the factory default of “0”. If you want dual or
split reporting, and the split is based on partition, you should program location 4 as a “0” and
use location 5 to select those partitions that are to be reported to phone N°1. If no events are
to be reported to phone N°1, both locations should be programmed as “0”.
LOCATION 4 - EVENTS REPORTED TO PHONE N° 1 (2 segments, feature selection data)
Segment 1 1= Alarms
2= Opening and closings

LOCATION 6 - PROGRAMMING PHONE N° 2 (20 segments, numerical data)
Phone N°2 is programmed in location 6. A “14” indicates the end of the phone number. Delays
of four seconds can be programmed at any point in the phone number by programming a
“13” in the appropriate segment. The system will always wait for a dial tone unless the first
digit of the phone number is a “13”; in this case, it will only delay. Tone (DTMF) dialling is
default. If you want pulse tone dialling, program a “15” in the segment where pulse dialling
should begin. If the entire number should be pulse dialling, program a “15” in the first segment.
Program an “11” for a “*”, and a “12” for a “#”.
LOCATION 7 - ACCOUNT CODE FOR PHONE N° 2 (6 segments of numerical data)
Use location 7 to program the account code that is sent when phone N°2 is dialled. A zero in
the account code is programmed as a “0”. A “10” indicates the end of the account code, so
account code is 6 digits long, program all 6 segments. If this location is left unprogrammed,
account code 1 will be used when the second phone number is dialled.
connected to phone N°2. Consult the instruction manual for your central station receiver in
order to determine which format is compatible, and select from the 15 formats listed on page
33. If you require a format other than those listed, review the override options described in
Location 18 to create the appropriate format. In order to create a special format, a “15” must
be programmed in location 8, in addition to the entries in location 18. If this location contains
a “0”, format 1 will be used when phone N°2 is dialled.
LOCATION 9 - DIAL ATTEMPTS/BACKUP CONTROL FOR PHONE N° 2 (2 segments, numerical data)
Segment 1, dial attempts: segment 1 of location 9 is used to enter the number of dial
attempts (1 to 15 attempts) that the communicator will make to phone N°2 before it ends the
notification process. Factory default is “0”, and the communicator will make the same number
of attempts as those programmed in location 3.
waiting time of 60 seconds between each subsequent dial attempt (regardless of the
number dialled).
Segment 2, phone N° 2 backup control: Programming a “0” in segment 2 of this location will
“fail to communicate” condition and stop reporting. Programming a “1” in this segment will
designated in segment 1 is completed.

Phone N°2 can be used to back up phone N°1, or as a second receiver to multi-report or split-
report events. Phone N°2 has two programming locations that are used to select the events
that are reported to this phone number. Location 10 is used to select the events which are
reported to phone N°2, and location 11 is used to select which partitions are reported to
phone N°2. If you do not want dual or split reporting, location 10 and location 11 should be left
at the factory default of “0”. If you want multi-reporting or split reporting, and the split is based
on the event type (such as alarm, open close etc.), location 10 should be used to select only
those events that should be reported to phone N°2, and location 11 should be left at the
factory default of “0”. If you want dual or split reporting, and the split is based on partition,
then location 10 should be programmed as “0”, and location 11 should be used to select those
partitions that are to be reported to phone N°2. If no events are to be reported to phone N°2,
both locations should be at “0”.
LOCATION 10 - EVENTS REPORTED TO PHONE N° 2 (2 segments of feature selection data)
Segment 1 1= Alarms
5= Power fail (AC failure), low battery, power restore (AC restore) , and low

Phone N°3 can be used as a third receiver to multi-report or split report events. Phone N°3 has
two programming locations that are used to select the events that are reported to this phone
number. Location 16 is used to select which events are reported to phone N°3, and location 17
is used to select which partitions are reported to phone N°3. If you do not want dual or split
reporting, location 16 and location 17 should be left at the factory default of “0”. If you want
multi-reporting or split reporting, and the split is based on the event type (such as alarm,
open/close, etc.), then location 16 should be used to select only those events that should be
reported to phone N°3, and location 17 should be left at the factory default of “0”. If you want
dual or split reporting, and the split is based on partition, then location 16 should be
programmed to “0” and location 17 should be used to select those partitions that are to be

display on the keypad. This zone is not abortable, but can be bypassed.
8 1 FIRE
This zone will light up the fire LED and sound the steady siren each time the zone is shorted.
It will also rapidly flash the fire LED, indicating trouble if the zone is open. This zone cannot be
bypassed.
9 2 ENTRY/EXIT DELAY 2
A trip will start entry delay 2. Absence of a trip during the exit delay will enable the automatic
bypass or instant mode, if so programmed.
10 1 24 HOUR AUDIBLE SUPERVISED
Creates an instant audible alarm, regardless of the arming state of the control panel. It will
display on the keypad (e.g. flashing zone LED’s, and changed READY LED). This zone is not
abortable and cannot be bypassed.
11 2 MOMENTARY KEYSWITCH ZONE
This zone type will arm and disarm the partition or partitions of the control panel where it is
resident, every time the zone is shorted. Keyswitch arming will report as user 99. This zone
type can only belong to 1 partition.

12 2 INTERIOR FOLLOWER WITH “CROSS ZONE” ENABLED
This zone will be instant when the system is armed and no entry or exit delay is being timed.
It is delayed during entry and exit delay times. If a “Cross Zone” is not being timed, it will start
a “Cross Zone” timer. If a “Cross Zone” is being timed, it will create an instant alarm. This zone
will bypass automatically, when enabled in segment 1 of location 23.
13 2 INSTANT ENTRY GUARD
This zone creates an instant alarm whenever it is tripped and the stay/instant LED is off. It will
start an entry delay time 2 if it is tripped, provided that the system is armed and the
stay/instant LED is on.
14 2 ENTRY/EXIT DELAY 1 WITH GROUP BYPASS ENABLED
A trip will start entry delay 1. This zone will bypass when the “Group Bypass” command is
entered at the keypad. Absence of a trip during exit delay will enable the automatic bypass
or instant mode, if so programmed.
15 2 INTERIOR FOLLOWER WITH GROUP BYPASS ENABLED
timed. It is delayed during entry/exit delay times. This zone will bypass when the “Group
Bypass” command is entered at the keypad. This zone will bypass automatically, if enabled in
segment 1 of location 23.

BOARD INSTALLATION
The metal enclosure should be installed with the door

opening from the top to bottom. Refer to the diagram on
the right.
Inside the can, there are four slots for board insertion, two
on the top and two on the bottom of the can. These allow
the PC board to be positioned vertically as shown in the
diagram. 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: For installation, service or maintenance a set of

AC AC input. Connect to a 16.5V 35VA CE approved transformer.
EARTH Earth Ground.
Connect negative lead of low current device [relay, LED (install 1K Ω resistor in series with
AUX 1 LED), etc.]. Connect positive lead of device to KEYPAD +. Current is limited to 250 mA when
output is negative, and 250 µA when output is positive.
SIREN If used as a siren output (default), the speaker rating should be 15 watt at 8 or 16 ohm, or
30/40 watt at 4, 8, or 16 ohms. If voltage output is selected in location 37, this output
becomes voltage output, 12VDC, 1 Amp maximum load.
NOTE: A 3.3KW resistor may be required across the bell terminals when a 12 VDC siren
is used. If no resistor is used, you may experience voltage leakage into the siren, which
will cause these devices to output a small signal.
COM Connect the negative wire of powered devices such as motion and smoke detectors.
SMOKE+ Smoke detector power 12VDC, 250 mA maximum.
AUX 2 Connect negative lead of low current device [relay, LED (install 1K Ω resistor in series with
LED), etc.]. Connect positive lead of device to KEYPAD +. Current is limited to 250 mA when
output is negative, and 250µA when output is positive.
KP DATA Connect to the data terminal on the keypads and the expanders. Maximum wire run is
800 m with 2 mm² wire. The minimum wire sizes at 75, 150, 300 and 600 m are 0.12, 0.33,
0.83 and 1.3 mm² respectively. These numbers are for one keypad at the end of the wire
and a voltage drop of max. 2 Volts. When connecting more than one keypad to the end of
the wire, a higher gauge wire will be required. The maximum number of devices are max.
8 keypads and max 1 expander.
COM Connect to the Common terminal on the keypads, expanders, and other power devices.
