PROGRAMMING THE NX-16 CONTROL

NUMERICAL DATA: Numerical data is programmed by entering a number from 0-255 on the numeric keys of the

system code pad. To view the data in a feature, 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 feature. 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 feature is "66", press [6]-[6] on the code pad. The LED’s for

Zone 2 and Zone 7 will become illuminated indicating 66 is in that feature (2 + 64 = 66). See this example on page

10.

Once the data is programmed, press the [r] key to enter the data and advance to the next segment of that feature.

After the last segment of a feature is programmed, pressing the [r] key will exit that feature, turn the "Ready" LED

off and the "Armed" LED on. As before, you are now ready to enter another programming feature. If an attempt is

made to program a number too large for a particular segment, the code pad sounder will emit a triple beep,

indicating an error, and remain in that segment awaiting a valid entry.

OPTION SELECTION DATA: Option selection data will display the current condition (on or off) of eight options

associated with the programming feature and segment selected. Pressing a button on the touch-pad (1 thru 8) that

corresponds to the "option number" within a segment, will toggle (on/off) that option. Pressing any numeric key

between [1] and [8] for selection of a option, will make the corresponding LED illuminate (option ON). Press the

number again, and the LED will extinguish (option OFF). You will see that numerous options can be selected from

within one segment. For instance, if all eight options of a segment are desired, pressing [1]-[2]-[3]-[4]-[5]-[6]-[7]-[8]

will turn on LED's 1 thru 8 as you press the keys, indicating that those options are enabled. After the desired setting

of options is selected for this segment, press the [r] key. This will enter the data and automatically advance to the

next segment of the feature. When you are in the last segment of a feature and press the [r] to enter the data, you

will exit that feature. This will now turn the "Ready" LED off and the "Armed" LED on. As before, you are now

ready to enter another programming feature.

LOADING FACTORY DEFAULTS: There are two ways to load the factory defaults. The first is to enter the

program mode using the procedure on page 9, then type [9]-[1]-[0]-[#]. The code pad will beep 3 times indicating

that the loading is in progress. The loading takes about 6 seconds. The second is to type [9][7][1][3][0][0] within 10

seconds of power up at any code pad, which is not programmed for master mode. The procedure will default the

NX-16 even if it is armed.

ENROLLING MODULES AND CODE PADS : For supervision purposes, the NX-16 has the ability to automatically

find and store in its memory, the presence of all code pads, zone expanders, wireless receivers, and any other

module connected to the data terminal whenever exiting the program mode. The enrolling process takes about 12

seconds, during which time the "Service" LED will illuminate. Once a module is enrolled, if it is not detected by the

control, the "Service" LED will illuminate.
