Installation manual

Exit Error -

If enabled, the NX-16 will send an "Exit Error Report" if an entry/exit zone is faulted at the instant the exit delay expires. This

report will be sent along with the user number that armed the system, if the panel is not disarmed before the entry delay expires.

The alarm report will also be sent. Even if this option is not enabled, the siren will sound if any entry/exit zone is faulted at the

instant the exit delay expires. (See Feature 9 and 16)

Expander Trouble-

The NX-16 will report expander trouble to the central station if enabled. This condition will illuminate the "Service" LED on the

Code Pad even if not reported. NOTE: The Code Pads are considered expanders. The number of the expansion devices

reported can be found below. (See Feature 9 and 22)

Fire Alarm Verification -

When enabled, the NX-16 will verify a Fire alarm by requiring more than one trip on a smoke detector within a specified time

before creating an alarm. To interrupt the smoke detector power (when in the disarmed state) each time the [*] 7 keys are

pressed, the corresponding LED(s) for zones designated as "Fire" must be on steady for alarm or blinking for trouble. When the

"Fire Alarm Verification" option is enabled, a smoke detector will be powered down and reset automatically after the first trip,

waiting for a second trip within a specified time before creating an alarm. The communicator will delay for a specified time

before reporting the alarm, if a valid code is entered, the report will be aborted, and the smoke alarm verification option will be

reset if enabled. If no valid code is entered the alarm report will be reported to the base station. (See Zone configuration Group

Table and Feature 25)

Group Bypass -

A designated group of zones can be programmed to bypass by pressing [Bypass]- [0]-[0]- [Bypass] prior to arming. (See Zone

Configuration Group Table)

Internal Event Log -

Up to 185 events can be stored in memory along with the date and time of the event. These events can later be viewed through

downloading or the LCD Code Pad. All reportable events report to the log.

Number of Calls and Rings to Answer -

The NX-16 can count the number of calls and rings that are made before it will count the number of rings that must be met for

automatic download answering. (See Feature 13)

On Board Zone Disable-

The eight zones on the NX-16 panel can be disabled in order to have a completely wireless alarm system. (See Feature 22)

Partial Mode -

This unique arming mode has been developed to reduce the most common source of false alarms. When armed in the "Partial"

mode, the opening of any zones designated as "Partial Mode zone" will initiate the Code Pad sounder and start the Partial Mode

entry delay before creating an alarm. All other zones will function as normal. This arming mode will encourage system owners

to use their system more frequently when the premise is occupied. (See Zone configuration Group Table and Features 16 and

25)

Siren Supervision -

The NX-16 has a Siren Supervision circuit that will constantly monitor the siren on the NX-16 and can be programmed to report if

the wires are cut. (See Feature 22)

Telephone Line Monitor -

The NX-16 has a Telephone Line Monitor that monitors the voltage and current of the telephone line for detection of a faulted

phone line. This condition can also be reported to the central station once the line is restored.

Twin Trip -

This option requires two or more trips on a zone or zones programmed as "Twin Trip" within a specified time before reporting an

alarm. During the time between trips, the NX-16 can be programmed to sound the Code Pad and/or the siren. The NX-16 will

also see as an alarm activation any Twin Trip zone that is continuously faulted for longer than 10 seconds. (See Zone

configuration Group Table and Features 22, 24, and 25)
