CAUTION: Never attempt to solder a mains connection wire’s end where they will be wired to the terminal connectors. The battery used with the NX-10 must be made of materials of flammability class HB or better. The mains switching relay must not be fitted inside the control panel cabinet.
NX-10 Installers manual Chapter A3 Installing a basic system Installing the NX-10 CAUTION: Before installing the panel: • Ensure that the unit is mounted on a flat, solid, vertical surface so that the base will not flex or warp when the mounting screws/bolts are tightened.
Figure 5. Connecting the battery to the panel. Close the housing. Installing the keypad Mounting the wireless keypad Depending on the configuration, the wireless keypad can be mounted on the wall in a cradle or used as a portable device. To install a wireless keypad: Figure 6.
Note: Any unauthorized opening of the battery compartment will cause tamper alarm in the system. Mounting the wired keypad There is also an option to use wired keypads with the NX-10 system. To install a wired keypad: Run the NetworX bus cable to the appropriate location on the wall. Insert the cable into the cable opening in the wired keypad's backplate.
At the panel side, run the NetworX bus wires through the ferrite (see Figure 9, position ), making one loop, and connect the wires to the standard NetworX bus contacts (see Figure 1, position ). Additionally, connect the shielding to COM (see Figure 9, position Panel Figure 9.

To allow the IO module to control the output on the outdoor siren, you need to cut jumper 3 and then optionally 1 and/or 2. Jumper 3 is a start-up protection. Jumpers 1 and 2 are responsible for timer settings, and you can cut one of them or both, according to the table below.
NX-10 Installers manual Installing the wireless sensors Mounting the sensors Select the appropriate location to place the sensor. For recommendations and rules regarding a correct placement of the particular sensor (motion sensor, door/window, smoke, etc.), see the sensor manual enclosed with the device you want to install.
Country codes The NX-10 has the ability to set different “country codes”. Each country code has specific default settings. When you start your system for the first time (see Powering up the system below) and select keypad defaults during the initial keypad setup, the respective country code is also set up automatically for the panel.

Chapter A5 Setting up a communicator Reporting The NetworX system supports different modes of reporting events to multiple central stations. There are three phone numbers - each phone number has it own account code, protocol and events. The configured prefix is common to all three phone numbers. If a four-second delay is specified in the prefix, the panel does not look for a dial tone, but performs blind-dialling.
NX-10 Installers manual by default and events for phone numbers 2 - 3 are disabled by default. If phone number 1 and phone number 2 are programmed, the default sequence is 1,1 2,2 1,1,2,2 for a total of eight calls to each number.
