Overview

About the Installation Manual

This Installation Manual is to describe the Pegasus™ NX features, technical specifications, and installation instructions
including components description, mounting, and wiring.

What is Pegasus™ NX?

The Pegasus™ NX Alarm Panel Communicator is an extremely compact, robust device in terms of communication
interface for alarm panels. It brings the most innovative and reliable technologies for data communication to the Fire and
Intrusion Alarm Panels prepared to operate only with conventional telephone lines.
The device is fully compatiable with alarm panels that communicate using the contact ID protocol and provides high
speed, reliable and low cost communication. It is like a modem attached to any alarm system that passes digital
information to a 24/7 alarm receiving center which is able to respond to the received signal.
The device acts as a communicator between your alarm panel and the monitoring station. Event transmission is possible
via Ethernet network TCP/IP, Wi-Fi, and/or GPRS. The device is interfaced between the alarm panel and the telephone
line (optional). When the device is ON (active), it enters the Ethernet TCP/IP network (Internet/Intranet), wireless
network (Wi-Fi) and GSM operator network via GPRS (data channel) to establish connection with the Zeus™ server,
and thus creates an online communication channel between the monitored client and the alarm monitoring company.
Pegasus™ NX transmits all events received from an alarm panel (contact ID protocol) to the Zeus™ server. All
information transmitted by the device are cryptographed (AES Rijndael, 128 bits), and thus their top confidentiality is
assured.
The Zeus™ server is a multi-task software that works as a virtual receiver which receives all events transmitted by the
device, and then transfers them to the monitoring software as a conventional receiver (it simulates the communication
protocol of receiver, such as Ademco-685, Sur-Gard, Domus-4, Silent Knight (protocol ITI) and CM Plus. It also carries
important system task management, checks communication with the device (online or offline) constantly, presence of

3
telephone line at client etc. Any monitoring software that communicates with receivers: Ademco-685, Sur-Gard, or CM
Plus can be used.
Transmission of real time alarm panel events via Wi-Fi network is possible, if other interfaces are failed or when the
preferred interface is Wi-Fi. Alteration of the Pegasus™ NX configuration and upgrade of its firmware (software) is
possible remotely via the secured Wi-Fi network (WPA or WPA2). The device contains an additional LED that acts as
Wi-Fi indicator. You can also receive debug messages through Wi-Fi.

17
 4. A fully secured wall bracket looks straight, see image C.

Mounting Bracket on a Timber Stud Wall

The only difference when mounting the bracket to a plaster wall is that you must position the wall bracket so that it is
attached to the middle of a timber stud. The plaster itself might not handle the weight of Pegasus™ NX due to its poor
strength so using the timber studs is necessary.

To mount bracket on a timber stud wall

1. To identify the studs, use a stud finder or tap the wall gently to locate studs using a hammer and nail.
2. Once this is done drill the mounting holes in the centre point of the timber stud, and then secure the wall bracket
by screwing the coach screws in the clockwise direction into the wall with a screw driver.
3. Now, the next step is to attach Pegasus™ NX to the wall bracket. Follow the instructions provided in the next
section.

Tip
Use an electronic stud finder to find the outside edges of the two studs on which you want to attach your wall
mount. Use masking tape to temporarily stick the mounting template to the wall at your pencil marks and use
a level to keep your pencil marks straight. Then use the mounting template to measure the exact height you
want to mount Pegasus NX on the wall. Measure from the floor up. Make sure the template is centered on the
studs before drilling the mounting holes.

18
Fixing Pegasus™ NX on the Wall Bracket
Once the wall bracket is properly fixed on the wall, straight fix Pegasus™ NX to the wall bracket and follow the
instructions provided.
