system components is available from GE Customer Support.

Note:  

The NX-8V2 control panel sends a trouble condition once each 

hour if it senses that no devices have been enrolled. This report 
shows expander trouble--device zero (0).

Control panel programming

Programming the control panel requires you to enter 
program mode, select the module to program, program a 
location, and then exit the location and program mode.

Enter program mode

To enter program mode, do the following:
1.

Press 

∗, 

8

. The five function LEDs (Stay, Chime, Exit, 

Bypass, and Cancel) begin flashing.

2.

Enter the go to program code (default is

,

 7

,

 1

,

 3

). If the 

g

o to program code entry is valid, the Service LED 

flashes, and the five function LEDs illuminate. You are 
now in program mode and can select the module to 
program. 

Select the module to program

Since all modules connected to the NX-8V2 are programmed 
through the keypad, the module you are programming should 
be the first entry. To select the module to program, enter 

0

#

The 

0

 is the module number of the control, and 

#

 is the entry 

key. You can find other module entry numbers in the module 
documentation.

Program a location

Once you enter the module number, the Armed LED illumi-
nates, indicating the keypad is waiting for you to enter a 
programming location. To program a location, do the 
following: 
1.

To access any location, enter the desired programming 
location, followed by 

#

. If the location is a valid location, 

the Armed LED extinguishes, the Ready LED illuminates, 
and the binary data for the first segment of the location 
is shown by the Zone LEDs. 

2.

While entering new data, the Ready LED begins flashing 
to indicate a data change in process.

3.

Press 

∗ 

to store the newly entered data. The keypad 

advances to the next segment and displays its data. 
Repeat this procedure until the last segment is reached. 

4.

To move to another location after exiting a location 
(Armed LED illuminated):

• Press the 

Police

 key for the next sequential location. 

• Press the 

Fire

 key for the previous location.

• Press the 

Medical

 key for the same location.

5.

To review the data in a specific location, repeat the 
above procedure, pressing 

 but with no numeric data 

entry. Each time you press 

, the programming data of 

the next segment displays.

Exit a location

To exit the current programming location, do the following:
1.

Press the 

 key. The Ready LED goes off and the Armed 

LED goes on. You must press the 

∗ 

key to save the data.

2.

To exit before the last segment, press 

(Armed LED illu-

minates). 

You are now ready to enter another programming location. If 
you attempt to program an invalid entry for a particular 
segment, the keypad beeps three times indicating an error 
and remains in that segment awaiting a valid entry. 

Exit program mode

To exit program mode, do the following:
1.

When you have completed all programming, press 

Exit

 

to leave the selected module.

2.

If there is another module to be programmed, select it by 
entering its address, followed by 

#

. The procedure for 

programming these devices is the same as for the 
control panel, except the locations are for the module 
selected.

3.

If no additional modules are to be programmed, press 

Exit

 again to leave program mode.
