Product Summary
The NX-Series Receiver Modules (8-zone NX-408, 16-zone
NX-416, and 48-zone NX-448) add wireless capabilities to
the Caddx
®
NetworX NX-8 control panel. Adding a receiver
module makes NX-8 control panels compatible with NX
wireless transmitters and keychain touchpads (keyfobs).
The receiver modules mount inside the NX-8 cabinet and
require just three wire connections for power and data com-
munications to the NX-8 motherboard.
Installation Guidelines
Use the following guidelines when installing receiver mod-
ules:
■ Leave at least 10" above the control panel for the mod-
ule’s antennas.
■ Avoid areas that are likely to expose the module to
moisture.
■ Avoid areas with excessive metal or electrical wiring,
including furnace and utility rooms.
Installing the Receiver Module
The following steps describe mounting the circuit board
edge guide standoff, securing the module to the cabinet, and
inserting the antennas.
CAUTION: You must be free of static electricity before
handling circuit boards. Touch a bare metal
surface or wear a grounding strap to dis-
charge yourself.
