GE NX-4-EUR Installation Manual page 8

Code required options
The NX-4 can be programmed to require a code in order to bypass zones and/or to initiate a
download using the [*]-[9]-[8] or [*]-[9]-[9] function (see locations 23 segment 2 and 41).
Communication formats
The NX-4 can report in multiple formats. You are recommended to use Contact ID or SIA
formats if possible. If you wish to report to a private phone (using the voice module) or to a
central station in a 4+2 format, you must program each code that is to be reported (see
locations 56-83 and 111-169).
Configuration groups
The NX-4 has 30 configuration groups that determine how each zone will function and report.
The default configuration groups are listed on pages 44-46. All configuration groups are fully
programmable via downloading and via the keypad (see locations 111-169).
Country code
The NX-4 has the ability to set different "country codes". Each country code has specific
default settings. Before start programming the NX-4, it is important to select the country code
that is required. Once the country code has been selected, it will remain set, even after an
installer reset. When changing the country code during programming, all existing
programming will be cleared to the defaults for that country (see location 213).
Cross zoning
This feature requires two or more trips within a specified time on one or more zones that are
programmed as "cross zones" before it will report an alarm. During the time between trips, the
NX-4 can be programmed to sound the keypad and/or the siren. The NX-4 can also be
programmed to report an alarm after two or more trips on the same zone. The first trip on a
cross-zone is also logged (see locations 37 segment 1, 39, 40 and 110-169).
Daylight savings time
The NX-4 has the possibility to switch automatically from summer to wintertime and vice
versa. This option will move the clock backward on the last Sunday of October (3 a.m.
becomes 2 a.m.) and will move the clock forward on the last Sunday of March (2 a.m. becomes
3 a.m.) (see location 37, segment 5, option 8).
Dual / split / multiple reports
The NX-4 can send communication reports to three different phone numbers for dual, split or
multiple reports selectable by event (see locations 4, 10, and 16).
Duress code
If a duress code is programmed, the NX-4 will send a duress signal whenever the panel is
armed or disarmed with this code. If open/close reports are sent, the user code will be 254
(see location 44).
Dynamic battery test
The NX-4 can be programmed to perform a dynamic battery test for a selected duration when
the panel is armed or disarmed for the first time each day. The NX-4 can also be programmed
to perform a 'missing battery' test every 12 seconds (see locations 37 segments 2 and 3 and
location 40).
