GE Security NX-8E Alarm Control Panel (Caddx)

The NX-8 is a full-featured security system that uses advanced technology for burglary, fire and environmental detection. The NX-8 is a flexible security system that is both easy to install and simple to use. With eight partitions and up to 48 zones, the NX-8 can handle big or small residential and commercial security needs.

The panel comes standard with eight hardwire zone inputs. Four programmable outputs can be set up to activate external devices during an alarm or other system event. The modular design allows for complete integration of multiple systems within one enclosure. Adding more zones or expanding capability is fast and easy.

Expand the NX-8 capabilities by adding the optional NX-216 expander module. Modular design allows NetworX modules to slide into the enclosure and adds up to 48 additional zones. Add up to eight outputs with the NX-507E/508E to become the director of lights, home automation and industrial process control with X-10 or other power outputs. Expand the system even further with a NX-535 voice speech module for voice reporting to your phone or mobile.

Conduct quick and easy on-site programming with alphanumeric keypads or with the NX-586E direct connect module connected to your laptop with DL900 Up and Download software. Off-site programming is also available with the DL900 software for Windows.
