NX-6V2 Control Panel Installation Instructions
Introduction
This is the NX-6V2-Control Panel Installation Instructions.
Installations should only be done by trained professionals. Use
this document to install the system with default settings that
comply with UL requirements.
To install the keypad, other peripherals, and sensors, refer to
the documentation for those devices.
Installation
There are four slots for board insertions inside the metal
enclosure, two on the top and two on the bottom. These allow
the PC board to be positioned vertically (Figure 1). 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: Install the metal enclosure with the door opening from
the top to bottom.

[1] These products have not been tested and approved by
Underwriters Laboratories, In.
[2] These wireless devices are UL listed only for residential
applications.
Note: The NX-6V2 control panel sends a trouble condition once each
hour if it senses that no devices have been enrolled. This report
shows expander trouble--device zero (0).
Control panel programming
Programming the control panel requires you to enter program
mode, select the module to program, program a location, and
then exit the location and program mode.
Enter program mode
To enter program mode, do the following:
1. Press 8. The five function LEDs (Stay, Chime, Exit,
Bypass, and Cancel) begin flashing.
2. Enter the go to program code (default is 9, 7, 1, 3). If the
go to program code entry is valid, the Service LED flashes,
and the five function LEDs illuminate. You are now in
program mode and can select the module to program.
Select the module to program
Since all modules connected to the NX-6V2 are programmed
through the keypad, the module you are programming should
be the first entry. To select the module to program, enter 0, #.
The 0 is the module number of the control, and # is the entry
key. You can find other module entry numbers in the module
documentation.
Program a location
Once you enter the module number, the Armed LED
illuminates, indicating the keypad is waiting for you to enter a
programming location. To program a location, do the following:
1. To access any location, enter the desired programming
location, followed by #. If the location is a valid location,
the Armed LED extinguishes, the Ready LED illuminates,
and the binary data for the first segment of the location is
shown by the Zone LEDs.
2. While entering new data, the Ready LED begins flashing
to indicate a data change in process.
2 NX-6V2 Control Panel Installation Instructions
3. Press to store the newly entered data. The keypad
advances to the next segment and displays its data.
Repeat this procedure until the last segment is reached.
4. To move to another location after exiting a location (Armed
LED illuminated):
• Press the Police key for the next sequential location.
• Press the Fire key for the previous location.
• Press the Medical key for the same location.
5. To review the data in a specific location, repeat the above
procedure, pressing but with no numeric data entry.
Each time you press , the programming data of the next
segment displays.
Exit a location
To exit the current programming location, do the following:
1. Press the key. The Ready LED goes off and the Armed
LED goes on. You must press the key to save the data.
2. To exit before the last segment, press # (Armed LED
illuminates).
You are now ready to enter another programming location. If
you attempt to program an invalid entry for a particular
segment, the keypad beeps three times indicating an error and
remains in that segment awaiting a valid entry.
Exit program mode
To exit program mode, do the following:
1. When you have completed all programming, press Exit to
leave the selected module.
2. If there is another module to be programmed, select it by
entering its address, followed by #. The procedure for
programming these devices is the same as for the control
panel, except the locations are for the module selected.
3. If no additional modules are to be programmed, press Exit
again to leave program mode.
Loading factory defaults
To load factory defaults, enter program mode, enter the device
address and number and then enter 9, 1, 0, #. The keypad
beeps three times indicating that loading is in progress. The
process takes about six seconds. You cannot exit the location
until loading is completed.
Enrolling modules and keypads
The NX-6V2 automatically finds and stores all keypads, zone
expanders, wireless receivers, and other modules connected
to the data terminal into the NX-6V2 memory. This allows the
modules to be supervised by the control panel.
To enroll the modules, do the following:
1. Enter program mode and program the desired settings for
each module.
2. When you exit program mode, the NX-6V2 automatically
enrolls the devices. The enrolling process takes about 12
seconds, during which time the Service LED illuminates. If
a speaker is attached to the NX-6V2, it clicks at this time.
If a siren or bell is attached to the NX-6V2, it sounds for
about one second. If the module is not detected, the
Service LED illuminates.
Note: User codes are not accepted during the enrolling
process.
Quick start programming locations
For most routine installations, the quick start locations allow
you to enable a majority of the options available with the NX-
6V2 (when communicating in Contact ID or SIA formats). The
quick start locations include:
• Location 0 - Phone 1
• Location 1 - Phone 1 account code
• Location 2 - Phone 1 communicator format
• Location 3 - Phone 1 dial attempts/backup control
Location 0 - Phone 1
Location 0 has 20 segments of numerical data. Use this
location to program phone 1. The default for each segment is
14.
• To program a delay of four seconds, enter 13 in the
appropriate segment.
• To program tone dialing, enter 15 in the segment where
tone dialing begins.
• If the entire number is tone dialing, enter 15 in the first
segment.
• Enter 11 for a *, and 12 for a #.
Location 2 - Phone 1 communicator format
Location 2 has one segment of numerical data. Use this
location to program the communicator format used to transmit
to the receiver connected to phone 1. Refer to your central
station receiver documentation to determine which format is
compatible. Table 4 describes the formats for this location. If
you need a format other than those listed, review the override
options described in Loc to build the appropriate format.
Program a 15 to create a special format (in addition to the
entries in Location 18). The default is 0. If this location contains

Location 3 has two segments of numerical data.
Segment 1 - Phone 1 dial attempts
Program the number of dial attempts (1 to 15) the
communicator makes to phone 1 before ending the notification
process. The default is 8, which means that the communicator
makes eight attempts to the first number.
Segment 2 - Phone 1 backup control
Program the backup control for phone 1. The default is 0.
• Program a 0 in segment 2 to cause the NX-6V2 to make
the designated number of attempts to phone 2 before
setting the fail to communicate condition to stop reporting.
• Program a 1 in segment 2 to cause the NX-6V2 to stop
trying to communicate after the designated number of
attempts have been made to phone 1.
• Program a 2 in segment 2 to cause the NX-6V2 to make
the dial attempts in increments of two. The first two
attempts are made to phone 1, the next two attempts to
phone 2. This repeats until the total number of attempts
designated in segment 1 is completed.

Additional UL 609 installation requirements
The alarm housing for a mercantile alarm system without a
remote alarm transmission connection shall be mounted on the
outside of the building, visible from a public street or highway.
It shall be accessible for examination and repair. It shall also
be located not more than four stories above the street level
unless:
a) A second alarm sounding device and housing, intended for
outside service is mounted adjacent to the premises or area of
the building in which the alarm system is installed or
b) A second alarm sounding device, intended for inside service
is mounted within the premises.
In either case, the outside alarm sounding device and housing
may be mounted as high as the seventh floor.
Additional UL 365 installation requirements
In a mercantile burglar alarm system, a mercantile alarm
sounding device located within a building, but outside the
protected area, is acceptable, provided it is rated for outside
service and alarm conditions are transmitted to:
a) The dispatch location of the law enforcement agency having
jurisdiction over the protected property or
b) A central station or residential monitoring station complying
with the Standard for Central-Station Alarm Services, UL 827.
In a mercantile burglar alarm system, an alarm sounding
device located within the area of greatest protection, or outside
the area of greatest protection but within an area protected by
an alarm system and that shares a common control unit with
the system installed in the area of greatest protection, is
acceptable provided it is rated for inside service and alarm
conditions are transmitted to:
a) The dispatch location of the law enforcement agency having
jurisdiction over the protected property or
b) A central station or residential monitoring station complying
with the Standard for Central-Station Alarm Services, UL 827.
An inside sounding device shall be mounted at least 10 feet
(3.05 m) above the floor or at the surface of the ceiling. When
there is fixed construction within the area that could provide
access for an intruder, the alarm sounding device shall also be
mounted at least 4 feet (1.2 m), as measured horizontally,
away from the edges of the fixed construction or at least 10
feet (3.05 m) above it so as to minimize access by an intruder.
