Installing the NX-10

CAUTION: Before installing the panel:

Small polycarbonate housing

Small polycarbonate housing is adequate for systems with a just a single additional module installed
(usually the TCP/IP module). When expanding the small system, switching to the large
polycarbonate box may be required, since more modules cannot physically fit the smaller housing.
Unscrew the holding screw in the polycarbonate housing.
1.
Open the box.
2.
Lift off the lid of the box.
3.
If you are using an additional module:
Connect the NetworX bus cables to the module.
4.
Connect the NetworX bus cables from the additional module to the panel. Use one of the
5.
internal bus connectors for this purpose (see Figure 1, position
Clip-in the TCP/IP module inside the housing cover.
6.
Connect the Ethernet cable to the TCP/IP module (see instructions in the NX-590E
7.
module manual).
Connect the battery leads to the battery and power up the panel.
8.
Installing a basic system
•
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.
•
Leave a 50 mm clearance between equipment enclosures mounted side by side
and 25 mm between the enclosure and the cable pathway.
•
The battery mounting facility inside the housing is only useful for steady state
use of the control panel. Remove the battery for transport of the control panel.
•
Take care that wire terminals are isolated. Use tie wraps to prevent contact with
any other wires or circuits in case wires break.
