Power up
You will need to power up the panel and module to begin the
enrolling and programming process.
To power up:
1. Verify that all wiring between the panel and module is
correct.
2. Connect the backup battery and restore AC power to the
panel.
Enrolling the module
The NetworX control panels have the ability to automatically
find and store in memory the presence of all keypads, zone
expanders, wireless receivers, and any other device on the
keypad bus. This allows these devices to be supervised by the
control panel.
To enroll the devices, enter program mode of the NX control
panel using the procedure described in the control panel
documentation. When you exit program mode, the control
panel will automatically enroll all the devices. The enrolling
process takes about 12 seconds, during which time the service
LED will illuminate. When using the LCD keypad, the “Service
Required” message will be displayed. User codes will not be
accepted during the enrolling process. Once a module is
enrolled, if the control panel does not detect it, the service LED
will illuminate.
Module Address
The GSM module has a fixed address of 76. When
programming the module, enter program mode and select the
device address as 76.
Programming
You can program the module using the LED keypad or the
LCD keypad. To program the module using the LED keypad,
do the following:
Enter program mode
To enter program mode, press * 8. The Stay, Chime, Exit,
Bypass, and Cancel LEDs on the keypad will flash. Enter the
“go to program code”. The factory default is 9 7 1 3. If the code
is valid, the Service LED on the keypad will flash and the five
function LEDs will illuminate steady. You are now in program
mode and can select the module to program.
Select the module to program
To select the module to program, press 7 6 # (the address of
this GSM module). The Armed LED on the keypad will
illuminate while it is waiting for a programming location to be
entered.
Factory default the module
To return the module to factory defaults, press 9 1 0 #. The
keypad will beep three times indicating that loading is in
progress. Remember you will erase any values you may have
entered previously.
Programming a location
Once the number of the module to be programmed has been
entered, the Armed LED on the keypad will illuminate while it is
waiting for a programming location to be entered.
