Test Mode
To facilitate installation and verify correct wiring, the ZX8D features five Test Modes. In order to use this feature, the ZX8D module must be powered (Test
Mode 1 requires a full bus connection).
To enter Test Mode, press the LOC button. The ZX8D enters Test Mode 1. Press the LOC button again to enter Test Mode 2, and so on. On the sixth
press, the ZX8D will exit Test Mode.
EVO Programming
Module Tamper Recognition
Enabling this section will set zone input 8 as a module tamper input.
Zone Input Speed
To calculate the zone input speed, multiply the Base Time Selection by the Time Value. (default = all inputs 600ms)

Mode Feature LED Feedback Instructions
Mode 1* Input assignment RX flashes x 1 Entering Mode 1 illuminates all zones that have already been assigned in the control panel.
Mode 2 EOL disabled
Tamper disabled RX flashes x 2 Entering Mode 2 sets the ZX8D for: No EOL / No tamper. To verify correct EOL / tamper wiring,
open and close the zone and verify that the zone’s LED reacts accordingly.
Mode 3 EOL enabled
Tamper disabled RX flashes x 3 Entering Mode 3 sets the ZX8D for: With EOL / No tamper. To verify correct EOL / tamper
wiring, open and close the zone and verify that the zone’s LED reacts accordingly.
Mode 4 EOL enabled
Tamper enabled RX flashes x 4 Entering Mode 4 sets the ZX8D for: With EOL / With tamper. To verify correct EOL / tamper
wiring, open and close the zone and verify that the zone’s LED reacts accordingly.
Mode 5 Zone test RX flashes x 5 Entering Mode 5 illuminates all connected zones. When a zone is triggered, the corresponding
zone LED will turn off, indicating correct wiring.
Base Time Selection - Even-numbered sections Time Value - Odd-numbered sections
Even-numbered sections represent the base time selection for inputs
terminals Z1 to Z8. Using the [T] and [S] keys, select a base time* value
from 000 to 002. To save and proceed to the next section, Press [ENTER].
Odd-numbered sections represent time value for inputs Z1 to Z8. Enter a
3-digit decimal time value (000 to 255). Multiply by the selected base time.
