Interlogix NX-1700E - Manual (Page 3)

I. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The NetworX NX-1700E is a proximity card reader / door control module used to expand the capabilities of the NetworX control
panels.
$ Microprocessor-controlled
$ Includes one (1) low current trigger output, which can be used to control a door strike relay
$ Up to 15 card readers can be connected to the NetworX control panel
$ Can be programmed to control access in any or all partitions
$ LEDs can be programmed to follow the output and/or the armed or ready status of the system
$ Has an optional optical tamper switch
II. INSTALLATION AND WIRING
To install the card reader, simply wire it into the system. Refer to the following wiring table for details.
DESCRIPTION
GREEN
(DATA)
Connect to the NetworX control panel DATA terminal. This wire is the data-signaling terminal to all
the devices on the buss.
BLACK
(COM)
Connect to the NetworX control panel COMMON terminal. Supplies the common side of the power
to the card reader module.
RED
(POS)
Connect to NetworX control panel AUX POWER + terminal. Supplies power to the card reader
module.
WHITE
(EGRESS)
This is an optional EGRESS (exit) input. To use this feature, connect the normally open egress
switch between this terminal and COM. If this feature is not used, there is no need to connect this
wire.
BLUE
(OUTPUT)
This is an optional open-collector (negative trigger) OUTPUT. It can be used to drive a relay. To
use this feature, connect the coil contacts of a relay between this terminal and AUX POWER +.
Absolute maximum 14 volts @ 25mA.
 This is a low current output and must not be used to directly energize high current door
openers.
III. ENROLLING
The NetworX control panels have the ability to automatically find and store in memory the presence of all keypads, zone expanders,
wireless receivers, output modules, and any other device on the keypad buss. This allows these devices to be supervised by the
control panel. To enroll the devices, enter the Program Mode using the procedure outlined in the control panel Installation Manual.
When the Program Mode is exited, the NX control panel will automatically enroll the devices. The enrolling process takes about 12
seconds, during which time the Service LED will illuminate. User codes will not be accepted during the enrolling process. Once a
module is enrolled, if it is not detected by the control, the Service LED will illuminate.
IV. ADDRESSING
Once the reader is wired into the system, the module needs to be addressed. Unlike most NetworX expanders,
the address of any particular reader is determined by itself after installation is complete. Follow the procedures
outlined under the section “PROGRAMMING”. When prompted to enter the module device number, a card
must be scanned at the reader to initiate addressing (one short beep). When completed (1-2 seconds), the
reader will beep back its address (long beeps). Refer to Table IV-1 that follows for possible addresses. Scan: To
“present” or pass
a card or FOB
within sensing
range of the card
reader module.
