      Dr. Colleen Johnson MDSep 12, 2025
      If the interior zones on your UTC Fire and Security Control Panel are bypassing themselves, turn off Location 23, Segment 1, bit 3, because by default, auto bypass is on in this location.

    Why cell backup module does not work on UTC Fire and Security Interlogix NX-8E Control Panel?
    • J
      Jose MataSep 15, 2025
      If the cell backup module is not working on your UTC Fire and Security Control Panel, and you are using NX-8E, remember that it can only enroll one bus device other than keypads. If the installation requires wireless and a cell module, use an NX-148E-RF keypad with a built-in receiver and the cell module. The panel enrolls the NX-148E-RF as a keypad rather than a receiver, allowing it to enroll the cell module correctly.
