All zones showing fault (NX-8E), please help NeonTide 05-13-07

Hi all! I have a Caddx NX-8E with NX-216E Zone Expansion module and
two NX-148E keypads. I have programed the system using the DL900
software, but every zone (21 of them) are showing fault. I'm not sure
if I've missed something in the setup or what. Any thoughts/
suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have put EOL Resistors on
all unused zones and have turned off box tampering as well.

if you have a closed loop and eol in series on every zone you should be ok

It all depends on how you've connected your circuits. If you haven't
used the supplied EOL resistors, then you have to program the panel for
"No EOL".

Thank you very much for your help. I found out where to turn off the
EOL in the DP900 software. Now everything works great!
