Limitations of Alarm Systems

It must be understood that whil e your Paradox alarm system is highly advanced and secure, it does not
offer any guaranteed protection against burgla ry, fire or other emergency (fire and emergency
options are only available on certain Paradox models). This is due to a number of reasons, in cluding by
not limited to inadequate or improper i nstallation/positioning, sensor limitations, battery
performance, wireless signa l interruption, inadequate maintenance or the potential for th e system or
telephone lines to be compromised or circumvented. As a result, Paradox does not represent that the
alarm system will prevent personal inju ry or property damage, or in all cases provide adequate
warning or protection.

Your security system should therefore be considered as one of many tools available to reduce risk and/
or damage of burglary, fire or other emergencies, such other tools include but are not limited to
insurance coverage, fire prevention and extinguish devices, and sprinkler systems.
We also strongly recommend that you regularly maintai n your security systems and stay aware of new
and improved Paradox products and developments.
TBR-21: In order to comply with TBR-21, standard force dialing must be enabled.

Reference & Installation Manual

1.1 Features

• 32 zones (any of which can be wireless or keypad zones).

• 32 users and 32 remote controls (one per user).

• In-field upgrades: Update the panel’s firmware by connecting it to a PC via a 307USB Interface and then using the Winload
software (V2.80 or higher).

• Menu-driven programming for the Installer, Master, and Maintenance codes. This enables you to program the panel through a
simple and easy to use interface, without the use of section numbers.

• Multiple telephone numbers for event reporting: Three for the monitoring station, five for personal dialling and one for pager
reporting. Up to five persons can now be contacted by the panel in case of alarm.

• Calendar with daylight savings time (enable section [730], option [1] and choose section [731] to put in the Country Code):
You can now select 1 out of 18 different country groups each with its own pre-programmed local daylight savings time. You can
also customize the daylight saving time by programming sections [732] and [733].

• New Sleep arming method: Similar to Stay arming, Sleep arming allows users to remain in a protected area, but provides a
higher level of protection. 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 is protected (motion detectors, etc.), allowing you to roam the second floor and sleeping
quarters.

• Connect up to 15 hardwire keypads on the 4-wire communication bus.

• Push button power reset: Convenient reset button saves time when a momentary powerdown is required as opposed to having
to physically disconnect the control panel’s power cables. Press and hold the RESET switch for five seconds. The STATUS
LED will start flashing. Within 2 seconds of this flashing, press the reset switch again. The panel will reset to default and
restart. Also, you can reset all programmable sections to factory default values in section [950].

Partial PCB view

Before mounting the cabinet, push the five white nylon mounting studs into the back of the cabinet. Pull all cables into the cabinet
and prepare them for connection before mounting the circuit board into the back of the cabinet. Select a centralized installation
site on the main floor that isn't easily accessible to intruders and leave at least 5cm (2in) around the panel box to permit adequate
ventilation and heat dissipation. The installation site should be dry and close to an AC source, ground connection and telephone
line connection. Avoid installation near or in the path of strong RF fields (i.e. neon lights, computers), on or near metal objects,
circuit breaker boxes, air conditioners and heater ducts since they may cause interference and reduce sensitivity. Avoid installing
the control panel in the basement. IMPORTANT: To comply to EN 50131 requirements, unit must be installed in an

approved tamper enclosure.

Do not cut, bend or alter the antennas and ensure that electrical wires do not cross over the antennae as these
may affect the signal reception.

2.2 EN 50131 Compliancy

In order to meet with EN 50131 compliancy you will require the following:

•EN Metal Box

• Tamper Antenna

• Tamper Kit (TK278)

• Firmware version 4.96

2.3 Earth Ground

Connect the zone and dialer ground terminals from the control panel to the metallic enclosure and cold water pipe or grounding
rod as per local electrical codes.

For maximum lightning protection, use separate earth grounds for the zone and dialer grounds as shown in the
PCB Layouts for each respective panel. For UL installations, the metallic enclosure must be grounded to the
cold water pipe.

Part 2: Installation

2.4 AC Power

Do not use any switch-controlled outlets to power the transformer in order to avoid accidental user AC shut off. Connect the
transformer as shown in Figure 1. Use Table 1 for appropriate transformer.

Use only safety approved Transformer with rated output voltage of 16.5Vac and rated power of 40 VA maximum.

Transformer:
(use only one of the following)

Battery Charge Currents 350mA 350mA/700mA (programmable via panel)

2.5 Backup Battery

To provide power during a power loss, connect a 12Vdc 4Ah rechargeable acid/lead or gel cell backup battery as shown in Figure 1
below. Use a 7Ah battery to comply with UL fire requirements. Connect the backup battery after applying AC power. When installing,
verify proper polarity as reversed connections will blow the battery fuse.

Use only safety approved rechargeable battery with rated voltage of 12Vdc and rated current of 7A maximum.

2.5.1Battery Test

If the battery is disconnected or if the battery fuse is blown, a No/Low Battery failure will appear in the keypad’s trouble
display (see Trouble Display on page 53). This trouble will also appear if the battery’s capacity is too low or if the voltage
drops to 10.5V or lower while the control panel is running on the backup battery. At 8.5V or lower, the panel shuts down
and all outputs close.

2.8 Telephone Line Connection

In order to report system events to the monitoring station, you must connect the incoming telephone company wires into the TIP
and RING connections of the control panel and then run the wires from T1 and R1 to the telephone or telephone system as
shown in PCB Layouts for each respective panel.

2.9 Bell Connection

The BELL+ and BELL- terminals power bells, sirens and other warning devices requiring a steady voltage output during an alarm.
The bell terminal supplies 12Vdc upon alarm and can support one 30-watt or two 20-watt sirens. The bell connection uses a
fuseless circuit and will automatically shut down if the current exceeds 3A. When this occurs the Maximum Bell Current failure will
only appear in the keypad’s trouble display (see Trouble Display on page 53) during an alarm. If the load on the BELL terminals
returns to normal, the control panel will re-instate power to the BELL terminals during the next alarm. When connecting sirens,
please verify correct polarity. Connect the positive lead to the BELL+ terminal and the negative lead to the BELL- terminal of the
control panel as shown in PCB Layouts for each respective panel.

If the BELL connection is not being used, the Bell Disconnected failure will remain in the keypad’s trouble
display (see Trouble Display on page 53). To avoid this connect a 1K resistor across the BELL terminals.

For connection of a self-contained bell/siren, see PCB Layouts for each respective panel.

Program the control panels remotely or on-site using the WinLoad Software (V2.80 or higher) for Windows®. For more
information, contact your local Paradox Distributor or visit our web site at paradox.com. If you are using the WinLoad software,
you must program the features (see Settings for WinLoad Software on page 51). Update the panel’s firmware by connecting it to
a PC via a 307 Direct Connect Interface and then using the Winload software. (Not investigated by UL).

3.2 Programming Using a Keypad

Use the supplied programming guide to keep track of which sections were programmed and how. We recommend you read the
entire manual before you begin programming.

Part 5: Access Codes

The control panel supports the following access codes:

Installer Code [397]: Used to program all control panel settings except user access codes.

Maintenance Code [398]: The Maintenance code is similar to the Installer code. It can be used to enter programming mode, which

allows you to program all the features, options and commands except
settings. The maintenance code is empty by default.

System Master Code [399]: Provides full access. Arm and disarm using any method described in the User Code Options below as

well as program the user access codes.

Master Code 1: Permanently assigned to partition 1. Same as a regular user code except it can also program access

codes for user codes assigned to partition 1.

Master Code 2: Permanently assigned to partition 2. Same as a regular user code except it can program access codes

for user codes assigned to partition 2. If the system is not partitioned Master Code 2 will be assigned to
partition 1.

29 User Codes: Can arm and disarm as per User Code Options on page 14.

5.1 Access Code Length

Section [701]: System Options
Option [1] OFF = 6-Digit Access Codes
Option [1] ON = 4-Digit Access Codes (default)

All access codes can be set to lengths of either 4- or 6-digits. When the 4-digit option is selected, entering a 4-digit code will allow
access. Using the 6-digit option, entering 6 digits is required to allow access.

If the access code length is changed from four digits to six digits when access codes have already been
programmed, the control panel will automatically add the last 2 digits by using the first 2 digits. For example, if
the access code is 1234 and you switch to 6 digits, the code will become 123412. Be sure to verify the access
codes after switching from 4-digit access codes to 6-digit codes. When switching from six digits to four digits, the
control panel will simply remove the final two digits of the access code. For example, 123456 will become 1234.

for the panel’s communication

5.2 Installer Code (Default: 0000 / 000000)

The Installer Code is used to enter the system‘s programming mode, which allows you to program all the features, options and
commands of the control panel. The Installer Code can be 4- or 6-digits in length (see Access Code Length on page 14) where
each digit can be any value from 0 to 9. The Installer Code cannot be used to program Master Code 1, Master Code 2 or user
access codes. To program the Installer Code press:

ENTER]+ [CURRENT INSTALLER CODE] + [397] + new 4- or 6-digit Installer Code

[

5.3 Maintenance Code (Default: Empty)

The Maintenance code is similar to the Installer code. It can be used to enter programming mode, which allows you to program all
the features, options and commands except for the system’s communication settings (sections [395], [397], [398], [815], [816],
[817], [910], and [911]) as well as any user codes. The Maintenance code can be 4 or 6 digits in length where each digit can be
any value from 0 to 9. The Maintenance code is empty by default. Set the Maintenance in section [398].

ENTER]+ [INSTALLER CODE] + [398] + new 4- or 6-digit Maintenance Code

[

5.4 System Master Code (Default: 1234 / 123456)

The Installer Code can be used to program the System Master Code. With the System Master Code a user can use any arming
method and can program any user access code, but not the User Code Options. The System Master Code can be 4 or 6 digits in
length, where each digit can be any digit from 0 to 9. The System Master Code can be modified but cannot be erased. To change
the System Master Code press:

[ENTER]+ [INSTALLER CODE] + [399] + new 4- or 6-digit System Master Code

5.5 User Code Options

Sections [404] to [432]: Options [1] to [8]

The User Code Options define which arming methods each user can use to arm or disarm the system. Regardless of these
settings, all users can Regular arm assigned partitions and all users except those with the Arm Only option can disarm an
assigned partition, regardless of how it is armed. Select one or more of the options described on the following pages for each
user access code, where sections [404] to [432] represent user access codes 004 to 032.

5.5.1 Partition 1 Assignment
