NX-8E CONTROL
3
I. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The NetworX NX-8E represents a new approach to security systems design. Drawing on our experience in the world
market as the largest exporter of USA manufactured controls, we have developed the most flexible, durable, and user-
friendly control ever seen in our industry. Featuring sophisticated software, which allows up to 240 users to interface with
192 zones, 8 partitions, and a host of integrated fire, access, verification, and input/output modules, all reported with the
most comprehensive and fast SIA and Contact ID formats. The NetworX design allows a fully loaded system to be housed
in one single metal enclosure, establishing for the first time, a logical solution and design response to modular systems. Up
to 32 modules can be added to expand the capabilities of the NX-8E. For product warranty information, please refer to the
GE Security Product Catalog.
II. BOARD INSTALLATION
Inside the can, several 2-holed insertion points have been constructed. This allows
for either vertical or horizontal placement of the modules. Notice that each insertion
point has two sizes of holes -a larger hole and a smaller hole.
Diagram 1
: The black plastic PCB guides are grooved on one edge where the PC
board will be seated. The end with the half-moon protrusion fits into the larger hole.
The smaller hole is for the screw.
Diagram 2
: Place the first black plastic PCB guide in the top insertion point, grooved
edge downward. The half-moon protrusion will be in the large hole. It does not
require force. Insert one of the provided screw into the smaller hole (from inside the
can) to secure it in place. A screwdriver should reach through the notch that runs the
length of the guide to tighten the screw. The second PBC guide should be
positioned opposite the first (grooved edge up) and placed in the lower insertion
point, using the same procedures described above. Once mounted, screw it in
securely.
Diagram 3
: The PC Board should slide freely in the grooves of both guides.

IMPORTANT!
1. If separate power supplies are necessary to accommodate additional devices, safety standards
require that each power supply be prominently marked with adequate instructions for removing all
power from the unit.
2. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions and/or local government
authorities.
3. Installation personnel should thoroughly read and understand the installation instructions and the
users manuals for the panel and all the accessories to be included with the system before attempting
to install a security system.
WARNING!
Replace only with Panasonic #LC12V4BP or Yuasa #NP4-12 battery. Observe polarity when installing a
new battery. Installing the battery backwards may cause damage to the panel. There is a risk of explosion
if the battery is replaced with an incorrect type.
NOTE
Electrical codes will vary depending upon the country and city where the system is installed. It is the
installer’s responsibility to ensure that the electrical installation is safe and conforms to all applicable
codes, laws, or regulations. Only qualified persons should connect this device to the mains supply.
