Hardware Reference Guide - NX-Series NetLinx Integrated Controllers
Overview
The NX-series of NetLinx Integrated Master Controllers can be programmed to control Ethernet, RS-232/422/485, Relay, IR, and
Input/Output devices, as well as other AMX devices connected via AxLink, through the use of both NetLinx and Java programming
languages. NetLinx programs are developed using the NetLinx Studio application version 4.x. Java programs are developed using
the Cafe Duet application. The NX-series controllers can also be programmed using Rapid Project Maker (RPM), a cloud-based
configuration tool. This manual provides the specifications, connection information, wiring diagrams, and hardware configuration
options for the NX-1200 (
FG2106-01
), NX-2200 (
FG2106-02
), NX-3200 (
FG2106-03
), and NX-4200 (
FG2106-04
).

References within this manual to NX X200-Series Controllers are used to describe the NX-1200/2200/3200/4200 Integrated
Controllers when the information applies to all NX-series controllers.

NX-series controllers
The NX Series NetLinx Integrated Controllers use a combination lithium battery and clock crystal package. The battery is a
commonly available CR2032 lithium battery. The battery has an average shelf life of 10 years. In normal use, the time will be
shorter than the average shelf life depending on the amount of time the unit has no external power for the clock circuit. Typical
useful life of the battery is 8 years under the specified temperature range. (see
Operating Environment
in the Specifications table
for each type of NX controller in this chapter for more information.)
