Wire the zones according to the wiring diagram. NOTE: Any unused zones must have the EOL resistor
across it (unless all eight are disabled by dip switch 6).
TERMINAL
Connect to the KP POS terminal of the NX8/NX8-E. Current draw is 30 mA.
POS
COM
Connect to the KP COM terminal of the NX8/NX8-E.
Connect to the KP DATA terminal of the NX8/NX8-E. (See the wiring diagram for wire
DATA
specifications)
TAM
Connect as shown below. IF NOT USED, CONNECT TO A COM TERMINAL.
Can be used to power devices directly from the NX216-E. Power is coming from the NX8/NX8-
AUX
E, therefore the current draw of these devices must be added to the total current draw of the
NX216-E. This output is current limited to 100 mA.
Connect to one side of zone 9 loop. Connect the other side to COM terminal. Open or short
Z9
causes alarm. (See the wiring diagram for examples)
Common (-) terminal for zones 9 & 10.
COM
Connect to one side of zone 10 loop. Connect the other side to COM terminal. Open or short
Z10
causes alarm. (See the wiring diagram for examples).
Connect as described for Z9 & Z10.
