DESCRIPTION

The KNX interface module NX-KNX is a KNX gateway for the GE Interlogix NetworX Caddx alarm systems. It enables bidirectional communication with the alarm system using the RS232 serial port of the alarm system.

It allows integrators to take advantage of a fully integrated alarm system including KNX scenarios, automatic lighting using the motion detectors, arming or monitoring the system using a KNX visualization.

This interface is intended to be used with a GE Interlogix NX series alarm system. The system must be equipped with a module for RS232 communication (for instance the NX-584E).

CONNECTION

Elausys NX-KNX module is supplied from an external 12VDC power supply which can be provided by the AUX power supply from the alarm system.

The RS232 bus must be interconnected between the serial port of the alarm system (for instance, the NX-584E board) and the NX-KNX interface using the provided DB9 connector. No additional component or wiring is required.

Up to 4 areas can be configured and listed in the group objects.

By default, areas are mapped to areas 1 to 4 of the alarm system but a parameter allows to change the area numbers to cover the areas 5 to 8 of the alarm system if needed.

Each area can be controlled by using the 3 group objects: Arm, Partial arm or disarm. Several statuses are available and have a dedicated group object.

A scene can be assigned to each status. This scene number will be recalled each time the area status is active (ON).

Each area has 12 Group Objects (GO), 3 for area control  and 9 for the area status to KNX.
