This manual contains detailed information about the NX-10 system, its basic components and their
installation and programming.

Chapter 1 Programming guidelines
Getting started
This chapter describes basic guidelines for NX-10 installation with the menu driven keypad allowing
you to program the system easily using a menu structure.
In order to program the system you need to enter a code defining your access rights. There are the
following default codes:
Table 1. Default codes
User code Installer code Download access code
1234 9713 84800000
Entering programming mode
Your installer code allows you to program the system through the installer menu. There are two
levels in the installer menu. The light menu contains the most important options and the advanced

are now in the program mode and ready to select the module to program.

NX-10 Expander Installation Guide
11
Note: It is impossible to enter program mode if any partition - or the system - is armed.
Selecting the module to program
Since all the modules connected to the NetworX system are programmed through the keypad, the
module you are programming should be the first entry. For example, to program the NetworX control
panel, enter [0]-[#]. The [0] is the module number of the control panel and the [#] is the entry key.
Other module entry numbers can be found in the corresponding manuals or in Appendix 1 Overview
of module numbers on page 154. The procedure for programming these devices is the same as for the
control panel, except that the location will be for the module selected.
Programming a location
Once you have entered the number of the module to be programmed, the LCD screen will prompt
you for a location number. Any location can be accessed by directly entering the desired
programming location, followed by the crosshatch (pound) [#] key. If the location you enter is valid,
the top line of the LCD screen will display the location number on the left and the segment number
on the right. The bottom line of the display will show the current data. This data will be displayed
and entered according to the type of data used (numerical, binary, or character data). For instructions
about entering each type of data, see Changing a menu option on page 9. If editing data, confirm the
change by pressing the OK key.
Exiting the program mode
When you have made all the desired changes in programming, it is time to exit the program mode.
Press the NO key twice to exit this programming level, and go to the “Enter the device address”
level. If no additional modules are to be programmed, press the NO key twice again to display the
OK to Exit prompt, and press OK to exit the program mode. If there is another module to be
programmed, you can select it by entering its address, followed by the [#] key (see Selecting the
module to program above).
Note: If you are not in a value selection mode nor in a value edit mode, you can press ## to display the
OK to Exit prompt. It also means you can exit any menu level immediately and display the OK
to Exit prompt by pressing [NO] [#] [#].
Note: You can set up the timeout for the program mode using the Control Panel>System
Settings>Timers>Miscellaneous>Programming Mode Timeout menu option, or by
programming location 40, segment 14.
Selecting the programming mode
The NX-10 system allows to use two different programming modes — location-based programming
or menu-based programming. In location-based programming you use locations and segments to set
appropriate values. In menu-based programming you use a menu tree to enable/disable particular
options or to set values. To select the programming mode:
1. Press OK at the system prompt and enter your installer code.
2. The OK=LOC
½¾
=MENU prompt displays.
3. Press OK to select the location-based programming mode or navigate with the ½¾ keys
through the menu to work in the menu-based programming mode.

For general information about navigating menus, and entering or selecting values, see Chapter 1
Programming guidelines on page 8. For general information about location-based programming, see
Guidelines for location-based programming on page 10.

Chapter 2 Setting up the NX-1701E
Overview
The NX-1701E is a proximity card reader/door control module. Up to 15 readers can be connected to
the NX control panel (depending on panel type). The NX-1701E can be programmed to control
access in any or all partitions. The LEDs can be programmed to follow the output and/or the armed or
ready status of the system. It has an optional optical tamper switch.
Figure 2. NX-1701E proximity card reader.
There are three badging actions that can activate a particular function or an X-10 device. These
actions are different depending on whether you are in default mode or legacy mode.
In default mode:
•Single badge (1 beep) - a proximity card is held against the proximity reader for one
beep.
•Double badge (2 beeps) - a proximity card is held against the proximity reader for two
beeps.
•Badge hold (3 beeps) - a proximity card is held near the proximity reader for three
beeps.
In legacy mode:
•Single badge (1 beep) - a proximity card is held once against the proximity reader.
•Double badge (2 beeps) - a proximity card is held against the proximity reader twice
within the time set in Scan Time.

•Badge hold (3 beeps) - a proximity card is held near the proximity reader for longer
than the time set in Scan Time.
You can set the badging action, selecting the appropriate Feature Select menu option. The following
example explains how to change the badging action on the proximity reader 113 to the legacy mode.
1. Navigate with the ½¾ keys to NX-1701E>Prox Reader 113 and press OK.
2. Scroll to Feature Select>Card Scan Mode> Single/Double/Hold and press OK.
3. The keypad beeps once to accept the change and returns to Card Scan Mode.
In order to select the default mode, scroll to Feature Select>Card Scan Mode>1/2/3 Beeps and press
OK.

Adding and deleting cards
To add or delete cards, you must enter information at the keypad and then scan the cards. Before a
card can be added, one NX-1701E proximity reader on the system must be programmed to enable
user card programming. It is recommended that only one reader on the system is enabled to do this
and that this reader is located near a keypad. This NX-1701E proximity reader transfers information
to all other NX-1701E proximity readers in the system once programming is finished. The following
example enables user card programming on proximity reader 113.
Note: The proximity reader recognizes pre-defined card serial numbers. It is not recommended to change these
serial numbers.
