Overview
Thank you for selecting the Magellan Security System from Paradox Security Systems Ltd. This advanced technology security system
provides you with reliable security protection and powerful features that anyone can use without memorizing complex and confusing
codes. The system consists of the Magellan control panel, one or more Magellan keypad modules, various input devices (e.g. motion
detectors, door contacts, etc.) and various output devices (e.g. bells, sirens, lights, etc.).
The elegant and user-friendly Magellan MG10LEDV/H, MG32LED, and MG32LRF keypad modules allow you to easily access your
security system's functions and provide you with an easy-to-understand display of your security system's alarm and operational status.
All of the actions performed in your security system will be executed and displayed through the keypad. Therefore, before using your
security system, we highly recommend that you read this manual carefully and have your installer explain basic system operation to you.
Basic Operations
Auditory Feedback
When you enter information on the keypad, it will guide you with beep tones that communicate acceptance or rejection of your
entries. You should be familiar with these two keypad beep tones:
Confirmation Beep: When an operation (e.g. arming/disarming) is successfully entered on the keypad or when the system switches
to a new status/mode, the keypad produces an intermittent beep tone (“
Rejection Beep: When the system reverts to its previous status or when an operation is incorrectly entered on the keypad, it will emit
a continuous beep tone (“
BEEEEEEEEP”).
Visual Feedback
Keypad Indicator Lights: All Magellan keypads include coloured lights which convey the current status of your system. The state of
each light represents a specific condition in your system.
Many of the features in your system must be enabled by the installer. If the feature is not programmed, the keypad will emit a rejection beep
and the action will be cancelled. Refer to
System Checklist on page 16 for details.

Partitioning
Your Magellan system is equipped with a partitioning feature that can divide your alarm system into two distinct areas identified as
Partition 1 and Partition 2. Partitioning can be used in installations where shared security systems are more practical, such as a
home office or warehouse building. When partitioned, each zone, each user code and many of your system's features can be
assigned to either Partition 1, Partition 2, or both partitions.
If the system is not partitioned, all zones, user codes, and features will be recognized as belonging to Partition 1.

To open one window/door while inside:
[OFF] [CODE]
In a Stay-armed system: This mode allows you to open one exterior zone without triggering an alarm. To enter Window mode, press
OFF], then your [ACCESS CODE]. The system will start an exit delay, allowing you to open an exterior zone such as a window or a
[
door. The system will only allow you to open one zone as the exit delay will end after doing so. When you close the open zone
(window, door, etc.) that zone will re-arm.
Re-arm Delay:
Re-arm Delay is a delay timer set so that when you close the open exterior zone (window, door etc.), it does not re-arm instantly.
Instead the system starts a delay to allow you to close the zone properly. This is especially useful for windows that stick or for
reducing false alarms.
6 User Guide
Access Codes
Programming Access Codes
Access codes are personal identification numbers that allow you to enter certain programming modes, arm or disarm your system as well
as activate or deactivate PGMs. The Magellan security system supports the following:
• 1 System Master Code
• 2 Master Codes
• 29 User Access Codes
For information on how each access code can arm or disarm the system refer to the System Checklist on page 16.
System Master Code (Default: 123456)
The System Master Code can arm or disarm any partition using any of the methods described in this section and can create, modify
or delete any user access code.
Master Codes
Master Code 1 is permanently assigned to Partition 1 and can be used to create, modify or delete user access codes that are
assigned to Partition 1.
Master Code 2 is permanently assigned to Partition 2 (Exception: When partitioning is disa bled, Master Code 2 will be assigned to
Partition 1) and can be used to create, modify or delete user access codes that are assigned to the same partition.
Master Codes cannot modify or delete user access codes assigned to both partitions. Only the System Master Code can modify or delete
user access codes assigned to both partitions.
Duress Code
If you are forced to arm or disarm your system, entering the access code with the duress option enabled will arm or disarm the
system and immediately transmit a silent alert (Duress Code) to the monitoring station.
Must be enabled by your installer.
Programming Access Codes
Your system can be programmed to use either 4- or 6-digit access codes, where each digit can be any value from 0 to 9. Six-digit
codes are considered more difficult to “crack” and therefore, more secure. Avoid programming simple or obvious access codes, such
as your telephone number, address or codes such as 1234. See Master Quick Menu on inside cover.

Arming & Disarming
Take full advantage of your Magellan system by familiarizing yourself with all the armi ng methods. If your system is not partitioned (see
Partitioning on page 5), everything is considered as belonging to Partition 1.
If you cannot arm because a zone is open, the system will enter in Bypass Programming. Enter the two digit zone you wish to bypass and press
[
ENTER], or press [ENTER] to bypass all open zones.
Regular Arming
This method will arm all the zones in the selected partition. Please note that Regular arming can also be activated using Auto-Arming (see
Auto-Arming on page 10) or One-Touch arming (see One-Touch Arming on page 9).
How do I Regular arm?
1. Close all zones in the desired partition.

Similar to Stay arming, Sleep arming allows users to remain in a protected ar ea, bu t provi des a h igh er level of prote ctio n. For example, in
a two-story house, the perimeter is protected with Stay arming. With Sleep arming, the perimeter as well as the main floor are protected
(motion detectors, etc.), allowing you to roam the second floor and sleeping quarters. Sleep zones are zones that are bypassed when
Sleep arming. For example, when you go to sleep at night, the entire premises except your bedroom is fully armed. Sleep arming can
also be activated using Auto-Arming (see Auto-Arming on page 10) or One-Touch arming (see One-Touch Arming on page 9).

Stay Arming
This method allows you to roam freely within the premises while the perimeter is fully armed. Stay zones are zones that are bypassed
when Stay arming. For example, if you plan on staying in for the night, doors and windows can be armed without arming other zones like
motion detectors. Stay arming can also be activated using Auto-Arming (see Auto-Arming on page 10) or One-Touch arming (see One-

Auto-Arming
The Magellan alarm system can be programmed to automatically arm upon the following two conditions.
Timed Auto Arming
The alarm system can automatically arm itself at a specified time every day. As with Regular arming (see Regular Arming on page 8),
the system will bypass any open zones. Your installer can enable this option, but you can program the time of day the system will
automatically arm.
How do I program the Auto-Arm Timer?
1. Press the [] ke y.
2. Enter [MASTER CODE].
3. Press the [BYP] key. The [BYP] key will flash to indicate you are in the System Options menu.
4. Press key [1] to set partition 1, or press key [2] to set partition 2.
5. Enter the desired time for auto arm (24 hour clock, e.g. 18:30).
6. Press key [1] to regular arm, key [2] to sleep arm, or key [3] to stay arm the partition.
No Movement Auto Arming
The alarm system can be programmed to arm the system and/or send a report if no zone activity occurs for a pre-programmed
amount of time. This is a particularly useful feature when supervising an individual with chronic health proble ms or a person who
lives alone. The system will bypass any open zones. This feature must be set by your installer.
Disarming & Deactivating an Alarm
To disarm an armed system or an alarm, press [OFF] and enter your [ACCESS CODE]. An entry point, like the front door, will be
programmed with one of two Entry Delay Timers. When an entry point is opened, the keypad will beep until you disarm the system.
Your alarm system will not generate an alarm until this timer elapses. Any user can disarm a partition they have been assigned to,
except users assigned with the Arm Only Option or PGM Only Option.To disarm alarms generated by a Delayed Fire Zone, refer to
Fire Alarms on page 12.
How do I disarm the system?
For a Stay or Sleep armed system, go to step 2.
1. Enter through a designated entry point (e.g. front door).

Manual Bypass Programming
Manual Bypass Programming allows you to program the alarm system to ignore (deactivate) specified zones the next time the
system is armed. For example, you may wish to bypass certain zones when workers are renovating part of your establishment. Once
the system is disarmed, the bypass entries are erased. Manual Bypass Programming can also be activated by using One-Touch
Bypass Programming (see the note below). To remove the Bypass feature from a zone, in step 3 enter the zone number again or

want to see the status of all zones, press the [] key. Zones that are open but have not trigge red an alarm will only be displayed after
pressing the [] key. The information will be displayed for 30 seconds, showing the status of all zones at the time the [] key was
pressed. The zone display will shut off after 30 seconds. For more information on the two display modes, contact your installer.
Alarm Display
If an alarm has occurred on a zone, the respective zone LED will flash, the [MEM] key will light up, and the zones will be stored in memory.
These respective LEDs will continue to flash until disarming even if the zones are restored. To exit this mode and switch to live display
mode before disarming, press the [
lit. Press the [MEM] key to illuminate the LEDs corresponding to the zones that were in alarm. The alarm memory will be erased when the
next alarm occurs and after a valid code is entered.
Fire Alarms
Upon a fire alarm, the bell/siren will emit three “squawks” at 2 second intervals until silenced or reset by entering a vali d access code. If
the zone is a Delayed Fire Zone, there is a delay before the system contacts the monitoring station. This will prevent unnecessary
reporting of false alarms. If there is no fire condition, contact your monitoring station immediately to avoid an unnecessary response.

Minimizing Fire Hazards
The three most common causes of fires:
• Cooking is the leading cause of home fires in the U.S. It's also the leading cause of fire injuries. Cooking fires often result from
unattended cooking and human error, rather than mechanical failure of stoves or ovens.
• Careless smoking is the leading cause of fire deaths. Smoke detectors and smolder-resistant bedding and upholstered furniture
are significant fire deterrents.
• Heating is the second leading cause of residential fires. However, heating fires are a larger problem in single family homes than in
apartments since the heating systems in single family homes are often not professionally maintained.
Fire Safety Tips
• In the event of a fire, escape first, then call for help. Develop a home fire escape plan and designate a meeting place outside. Make
sure everyone in the family knows two ways to escape from every room. Practice feeling your way out with your eyes closed. Never
stand up in a fire, always crawl low under the smoke and try to keep your mouth covered. Never return to a burning building for any
reason; it may cost you your life.
• Finally, having at least one working smoke alarm dramatically increases your chances of surviving a fire. And remember to practice
a home escape plan frequently with your family.
Providing a Fire Warning System
Household fires are especially dangerous at night. Fires produce smoke and deadly gases that can overcome occupants while they
sleep. To warn against fire, smoke detectors should be installed outside each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the
bedrooms and on each additional story of the family living unit, including basements.
Panic Alarms
In case of an emergency , the Magellan system can provide three panic alarms that can immediately generate an alarm after
simultaneously pressing and holding two specific keys for three seconds. Based on your needs, these panic alarms can generate audible
alarms (sirens or bells) or silent alarms and can communicate specific messages to your monitoring station. For instance, pressing [1]
and [3] can mean “call the police” or anything you require. This feature must be set by your installer.
Press and hold keys [1] and [3] for the police.
Press and hold keys [4] and [6] for a medical alarm.
Press and hold keys [7] and [9] for a fire alarm.
