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.
