NX-8E Cellular Communicators and Programming the Panel
CAUTION:
- It is advised that an experienced alarm installer programs the panel as further programming may be required to ensure proper performance and use of the full functionality.
- Do not route any wiring over circuit board.
- Full panel testing, and signal confirmation, must be completed by the installer.
NEW FEATURE: For MN/MQ Series Communicators, the status of the panel can be retrieved not only from the status PGM but now also from the Open/Close reports from the dialer. Therefore, wiring the white wire and programming of the status PGM of the panel is optional.
Wiring the white wire is necessary only if the Open/Close reporting is disabled.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Open/Close reporting needs to be enabled during the initial pairing procedure.
Wiring the MN01, MN02 and MiNi communicator series for events reporting and remote control via keybus*
*Remote control via the keybus allows you to arm/disarm or arm in stay multiple partitions, bypass zones and get the status of the zones.
Wiring the MQ03 communicator series for events reporting and remote control via keybus* 
*Remote control via the keybus allows you to arm/disarm or arm in stay multiple partitions, bypass zones and get the status of the zones.
Wiring the MN01, MN02 and MiNi communicator series for events reporting and remote control via Keyswitch* 
*The optional keyswitch configuration can be used for M2M communicators that do not support keybus functionality.
You do not need to configure this option if your device supports remote control via the keybus.
