Keypad tamper
If this option is enabled, the NX-8 will disable the keypad for 60 seconds, and will
communicate a tamper signal to the central station whenever 30 keypresses are entered
without producing a valid code (see location 23 segment 1).
Keyswitch arm/disarm
Any zone on the NX-8 can be programmed as a momentary or maintained keyswitch zone. If a
zone has been programmed as a momentary keyswitch, momentary shorts on this zone will
arm/disarm the control. A zone can be also being programmed as a maintained keyswitch.
The control panel will be armed as long as such a zone is shorted. A keyswitch zone can arm
in AWAY or STAY mode (see location 23, segment 4, option 8). If opening/closing reports are
sent, the user code will be 99 (see "default zone configurations")
LED extinguish
This feature will extinguish all the LED's on the keypad, except the "Power" LED, after 60
seconds have elapsed without a keypress. Pressing any numeric key will light up all the LED's
(see location 23 segment 2).
Local programming lockout
This feature will disable programming of all locations, or for specified locations, from the
keypad (see location 21).
Log full report
A report can be sent to the central station when the event log is full (see location 37 segment
4).
Log protection
This feature will prevent a single, non-zone reportable event to fill up the event memory. The
event will only be logged for a maximum of 3 times between closings or code entry. (see
location 37 segment 6).
Lost clock service light
The NX-8 can be programmed to light up the "Service" LED on a LED keypad or give a "Service"
message on a LCD keypad when the internal clock time is invalid due to power loss. On LCD
keypads, if programmed to show the system time, a "Set Clock, *97" message will always be
displayed (see location 37 segment 5).
Manual test
The NX-8 can be programmed to perform a bell and/or communicator test; to do this, enter
[*]-[4]-[4] while the system is in the disarmed state. Each time that [*]-[4]-[4] is entered, a
dynamic battery test will also be performed (see location 37 segment 2).
Night Mode
Applies to NX-1208E / NX-1248E keypads. In this mode, the control panel will bypass all zones
that have the Entry Guard feature enabled. (See location 23 and 111-169)
On board zone disable
The eight zones on the NX-8 panel can be disabled, in order to obtain a completely wireless
alarm system. A mix of hardwired and wireless zones for zones 1-8 is also possible (see
location 37 segment 5).
Partitions
The NX-8 can be partitioned into a maximum of eight separate systems with distinct reporting
codes, user codes, and operating features for each system (see locations 26- 36 and locations
171-205).
