4.8.1 Installing the AX-NET4 or AX-NET7 Module
Note: All Axis
AX
fire alarm control panels can support networking capabilities.
The AX-NET4 and AX-NET7 modules are supplied with one metal hexagon spacer/screw and three (3) nylon
spacers (see figure 30).Install the metal hexagon spacer [h] and three (3) supplied nylon spacers [n]. Plug the flat
ribbon cable of the AX-NET4/AX-NET7 into the dedicated network connector on the AX-CTL base card. Position the
module onto the three (3) nylon spacers and snap in place. Secure the module in place by screwing the supplied
screw [p] into the metal hexagon spacer (see figure 30). It is critical that this screw is tightly secured as the screw is
required for the earth ground connection to the AX-NET4/AX-NET7 module.
