LOCATION 11 - PARTITIONS REPORTED TO PHONE #2   (1 segment, feature selection data) 
Location 11 is used when events to be reported to a phone number are based upon the partition regardless of the 
event.  If this location is used, location 10 should be "0". 
 
Segment 1: 
1 = Partition #1  3 = Partition #3  5 = Partition #5  7 = Partition #7 
2 = Partition #2  4 = Partition #4  6 = Partition #6  8 = Partition #8 
 
LOCATION 12 - PROGRAMMING PHONE #3   (20 segments, numerical data) 
Phone #3 is programmed in location 12.  A "14" indicates the end of the phone number.  Delays of four seconds can 
be programmed at any point in the phone number by programming a "13" in the appropriate segment.  If tone dialing is 
desired, program a "15" in the segment where tone dialing should begin.  If the entire number should be tone dialing, 
program a "15" in the first segment.  Program an A11" for a Ar@, and a A12" for a A#@. 
 
LOCATION 13 - ACCOUNT CODE FOR PHONE #3  (6 segments, numerical data) 
The account code sent when Phone #3 is dialed is programmed in location 13.  Program a A10" in the segment 
immediately after the last digit of the account code.  If the account code is 6 digits long, program all 6 segments.  If 
location 6 is left unprogrammed, account code 1 will be used when the Phone #3 is dialed. 
 
LOCATION 14 - COMMUNICATOR FORMAT FOR PHONE #3   (1 segment, numerical data) 
Location 14 contains the communicator format used to transmit to the receiver connected to phone #3.  Consult the 
instruction manual for your central station receiver to determine which format is compatible, and select from Table X-1 
 COMMUNICATOR FORMAT SELECTIONS on page 13.  If you require a format other than those listed, review the 
override options described in Location 18 to build the appropriate format.  A "15" must be programmed in location 14 
in addition to the entries in location 18 in order to create a special format.  If this location contains a "0", format 1 will 
be used when Phone #3 is dialed. 
 
LOCATION 15 - DIAL ATTEMPTS/BACKUP CONTROL FOR PHONE #3  (2 segments, numerical data) 
 
Segment 1, Dial Attempts: Segment 1 of Location 15 is used to enter the number of dial attempts (1 to 15 attempts) 
the communicator will try to Phone #3 before ending the notification process.  Factory default is "8" and the 
communicator will make the same number of attempts as those programmed in location 3.  
 
Segment 2, Phone # 3 Backup Control: Programming a "0" in Segment 2 of this location will cause the NX-8E to 
make the designated number of attempts to Phone #2 before setting the "Fail To Communicate" condition and stop 
reporting. Programming a "1" in this segment will cause the NX-8E to stop trying to communicate after the designated 
number of attempts have been made to Phone #3.  If a "2" is programmed in this segment, it will cause the NX-8E to 
make the dial attempts in increments of two.  The first two attempts will be made to Phone #3, the next two attempts to 
Phone #2, then repeating until the total number of attempts designated in Segment 1 is completed.  
 
REPORTING EVENTS TO PHONE NUMBER 3 
 
Phone #3 can be used for a third receiver to multi-report or split report events. Phone #3 has two programming 
locations that are used to select which events are reported to this phone number.  Location 16 is used to select which 
events are reported to Phone #3, and Location 17 is used to select which partitions are reported to Phone #3.  If dual 
or split reporting is not desired, location 16 and location 17 should be left at the factory default of "0".   If multi-
reporting or split reporting is desired and the split is based on the event type (such as alarm, open/close, etc.), then 
location 16 should be used to select only those events that should be reported to Phone #3 and location 17 should be 
left at the factory default of "0".  If dual or split reporting is desired, and the split is based on partition, then location 16 
should be programmed to "0" and location 17 should be used to select those partitions that should be reported to 
Phone #3.  If no events should be reported to Phone #3, both locations should be "0".
