Hot Tip!
NGDdxk is the expansion type to choose when using a 216 G3 as an expansion.
The 216 expansion provides an additional 16 alarms, 2 controls and 8 analogs. When the port is
assigned with this type, base control 1 will be used to support the keying of a radio to transmit
communication between the NetGuardian G5 and the 216 expansion. By selecting the number of 216
expansion units from the NGDdx options dropdown menu, the NetGuardian G5 will configure port 1 for
polling this type of expansion. The NetGuardian G5 will poll the 216 expansion units on the DCP Poll
Timer interval and will process asynchronous reporting of a COS alarm from the expansion units.
Note: You can have up to 8 216DX expansion units.
