GE SECURITY DST UPGRADE CHIP FOR THE NX-8E
PROGRAMS THE NEW DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME SCHEDULE
The Energy Policy Act of 2005 changes the starting and ending dates for Daylight Saving Time (DST) in the United States and Canada. Beginning this year, daylight saving time begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. Changes must be made in certain security systems from GE Security to support the 2007 daylight saving time changes.
Networx NX-8E, 8E-CF panels are not currently compliant with the new DST rules, however, GE will have a chip upgrade available after 02/26/07 that will allow you to specify any DST start and stop date. Panels that include the attached manual addendum will have location 84 defaulted to the 2007 DST rules, so no further programming will be required.
After the upgrade, location 84 will allow the DST start and stop dates to be changed. This location will need to be programmed in order for DST to update the time correctly. Automatic DST enable will remain at location 37, segment 6, bit 4. DL900 V3.02 will allow remote DST changes and will be available in the second quarter of 2007. Note that the panel will not have to be reprogrammed since the upgrade does not affect the programming memory, however, GE Security recommends that you fully test your system after any upgrade.
NOTE You will need to obtain and use a PLCC chip extraction tool.
