Installation
AC Power
Magellan requires a 9Vac (1A/9VA) or 16.5Vac (20VA)
transformer (not included) to supply power to the console.
Connect the transformer to the
AC
terminals as shown in Figure 1
on page 6.
Magellan can also be powered through a DC power supply.
Connect a 12Vdc to 18Vdc to the
AC
terminals to power the
console.
Do not use any switch-controlled outlets to power the
transformer.
Figure 1: Connecting the Transformer
Backup Battery Pack
Magellan uses a backup battery pack to provide power during a
power loss. A 7.2Vdc 1.8 to 2.0Ah NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride)
rechargeable battery pack is included with the Magellan console.
Connect the battery pack as shown in Figure 2 on page 6.
Connect the backup battery pack after applying AC power.
Figure 2: Connecting the Backup Battery
Figure 2: Connecting the Backup Battery (cont’d)
Telephone Line Connections
The Magellan console can be connected to a telephone line by
connecting the telephone company’s wires directly to Magellan’s
dialer or by connecting a standard 4-pin RJ-11 cable between
the
LINE
plug of the console to a standard telephone wall jack.
Direct Connect
Connect the telephone line through an RJ31X jack as shown in
Figure 3 on page 6.

Paradox Magellan Systems 7
For UL compliant installations, the Magellan console must
be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in an
emergency situation. It must be able to do this even if other
equipment (telephones, answering machines, computer
modems, etc.) already has the line in use. To do so, the
Magellan console must be connected to a properly installed
RJ31X jack that is electronically in series with and ahead of
all other equipment attached to the same telephone line.
Proper installation is depicted in the diagram below. If you
have any questions concerning these instructions, you
should consult your telephone company about installing
the RJ31X jack and the Magellan console for you.
Line Plug Connect
The Magellan console can also be connected to a telephone line
via its on-board
LINE
plug. See Figure 4 on page 7 for more
information on connecting the telephone line using this method.
When connecting via the
LINE
plug, if the telephone line is
shared and it is busy (i.e. someone is talking on the
telephone) the console will be unable to communicate with
the Central Monitoring Station. It is recommended that the
Direct Connect method (page 6) be used to connect the
telephone line.
Figure 4: Line Plug Connection
Programmable Outputs (PGMs)
Magellan comes equipped with two 50mA solid-state PGM
outputs. When a specific event occurs in the system, a PGM can
be programmed to activate lights, garage door openers, etc. See
Programmable Outputs on page 30 for more information on
programming PGMs.
Connect Magellan’s PGM outputs as shown in Method 1 in
Figure 5 on page 7. Since Magellan does not come with a power
supply, an external power supply must be employed to power the
circuit. The PGM outputs can be either Normally Open (N.O.) or
Normally Closed (N.C.) as detailed in PGM Normal State on
page 30.
If the current draw on the PGMs is to exceed 50mA, we
recommend using an external relay as shown in Method 2 in
Figure 5 on page 7.
Using Method 2, connect the device to the output terminal of the
external relay that matches the normal state of Magellan’s PGM
output. For example, if PGM1’s normal state is Normally Open
(N.O.), connect the device to the
N
.
O
. terminal of the external
relay.

8 Reference & Installation Manual
Hardwire Zone Connections
Magellan comes with two on-board hardwire zones. You can
connect hardwire detection devices such as door contacts to
Magellan’s zone terminals. Connect the detection devices as
shown in Figure 6 on page 8. Please note the following:
• Section [095] options [1] and [2] must be enabled in order to
use the two on-board hardwire zones. See Zones 15 and 16
become Hardwire Zones on page 16 for more information.
• After connecting the detection devices, the zones must be
defined. See Zone Programming on page 13 for more
information.
• The hardwire zones follow the console’s EOL and tamper
definitions.
Though any hardwire detection device can be connected to
Magellan’s on-board hardwire zone inputs, it is recommended
that only devices that do not require a power source (i.e.
standard door contacts) be connected. Since Magellan has no
power supply, an external power supply would have to be
connected in order to power hardwire detection devices that do
require a power source.
Figure 6: Hardwire Zone Connections
WinLoad Connection
The Magellan console can be programmed and monitored
through the WinLoad Installer Upload/Download Software for
Windows®. WinLoad allows for remote or on-site uploading and
downloading using most standard modems. It also allows for
advanced printing of reports and supports several languages
simultaneously. Connect Magellan to a computer containing the
WinLoad software as shown in Figure 7 on page 8.
Refer to the WinLoad’s Online Help for more information
on WinLoad.

X10 Transmitter Connection
Magellan supports the X10 communication protocol. X10 is a
communication protocol for remote control of electrical devices
such as lamps and appliances. Communication is accomplished
through standard household electrical wiring using X10
transmitters and receivers. Configure Magellan, with the use of
an X10 transmitter, to automate a home. Connect the X10
transmitter as shown in Figure 9 on page 9.
Refer to the Magellan X10 Instructions on our website,
www.paradox.ca, for information on using and
configuring Magellan’s X10 feature.

Connecting a Paradox Memory Key (PMC-3)
When using a Paradox Memory Key with a Magellan console,
remove power (both AC and battery power), connect the memory
key to the 5-pin connector on the back of the Magellan console
as shown in Figure 10 on page 9. Once connected, re-apply
power to the console. For more information, see Programming
Using a Paradox Memory Key on page 11.
Figure 10: Connecting a Paradox Memory Key (PMC-3)
Location and Mounting
Location
The locations of Magellan and its wireless transmitters affect the
overall performance of the wireless system. To ensure the best
signal reception, the following list of location criteria should be
respected whenever possible:
• Select an installation site that is free of obstacles that reflect
and absorb radio frequency (RF) signals, as well as
interference that may distort signals. Avoid installation near
or in the path of strong RF fields (i.e. neon lights,
computers), and on or near metal objects, circuit breakers
boxes, air conditioners and heater ducts since they may
cause interference and reduce the console’s sensitivity.
• Select a site that is not susceptible to drastic temperature
changes.
• Mount the Magellan console as central as possible to the
proposed placement of the wireless transmitters.
• Mount the Magellan console as high as possible.
• Avoid installing Magellan in the basement as the range of
the console is reduced when installed below ground level.
However, if it is absolutely necessary to install the console in
the basement, install the console as high as possible.
• Install the Magellan console on a wall allowing at least 5cm
(2”) around the console to permit adequate ventilation and
heat dissipation.
The Wall Plate
Magellan uses a plastic wall plate to stay mounted on a wall. The
wall plate is also used for tabletop mounting to cover the back of
the console as well as keep any wires within their respective wire
slots. After choosing an appropriate location (see Location on
page 9), mount the wall plate onto the Magellan console with two
screws as described in Mounting Magellan on the Wall on page
10 or Tabletop Mounting on page 10.

Figure 12: Mounting Magellan onto the Wall Plate
Figure 13: Magellan’s Back Plate
Mounting Magellan on the Wall
Magellan can be mounted on a wall by first securing the wall
plate (see The Wall Plate on page 9) to the wall and then
mounting the Magellan console on the secured wall plate as
shown in Figure 12 on page 10 and Figure 13 on page 10. To do
so:
1. Place the wall plate on the desired spot of the wall.
2. Drill and insert screws into holes labeled A as shown in
Figure 11 on page 9.
3. Place the console back plate flush against the mounted wall
plate.
4. Slide the Magellan’s open slots labeled D (see Figure 13 on
page 10) onto the wall plate’s tabs labeled B (see Figure 12
on page 10).
5. Gently apply downward pressure to insert the wall plate’s
tabs into Magellan’s open slots.
6. Insert two screws through the wall plate’s screw holes
labeled C and into holes labeled E (see Figure 12 on page 10
and Figure 13 on page 10) in the Magellan back plate. This
will secure the console to the wall.
Tabletop Mounting
Magellan can also be mounted on a tabletop. This is a useful
convenience that allows Magellan to be situated on a nightstand,
desk, kitchen counter, etc. Included with Magellan are two plastic
feet as well as two rubber stops. The plastic feet raise the
Magellan console to a slight angle for easy viewing while the
rubber stops prevent the console from sliding when Magellan is
being used. To do so:
1. Place the console back plate flush against the wall plate.
2. Slide the Magellan’s open slots labeled D (see Figure 13 on
page 10) onto the wall plate’s tabs labeled B (see Figure 12
on page 10).
3. Gently apply downward pressure to insert the wall plate’s
tabs into Magellan’s open slots.
4. Insert two screws through the wall plate’s screw holes
labeled C and into holes labeled E (see Figure 13 on page
10) in the Magellan back plate.
5. Attach the plastic feet and rubber stops as shown in Figure
14 on page 10.
Figure 14: Mounting Magellan on a Tabletop
Tabletop mounting may not be an approved installation
method by local regulations. It is recommended that the
local regulations be verified prior to installing the Magellan
console using this method.
Connecting the Radio Antenna
If the radio’s reception is not very good, connect the supplied
radio antenna to the

INSTALLER
CODE
] or [
MAINTENANCE
CODE
].
3. Enter the 3-digit [
SECTION
] you wish to program.
4. Enter the required [
DATA
].
There are two methods that can be used to enter data when in
programming mode; Single Digit Data Entry and Feature Select
Programming methods.
Single Digit Data Entry Method
After entering programming mode, some sections will require
that you enter decimal values from 000 to 255. Other sections
will require that you enter hexadecimal values from 0 to F. The
required data will be clearly indicated in this manual as well as in
the Magellan Programming Guide. When entering the final digit

next section.
•Press the [*] key twice to exit without changing any data.
Programming Using a Paradox Memory Key
The Paradox Memory Keys (PMC-3) are very useful when
multiple Magellan consoles are to be programmed identically.
Rather then programming each console by entering its
programming mode and then scrolling through programming
sections, use a memory key to program each console. The
programming of a console with a memory key takes
approximately three seconds.
There are two actions that can be performed with a memory key.
Download Data to Destination Console
To download the data of a memory key into a console:
1. Remove power from the Magellan console (AC and battery)
and connect the memory key to the 5-pin connector on the
left side of the back of the console (see Figure 10 on page 9).
2. Re-apply both AC and battery power to the console.
3. Press the [
OK
] key and Magellan will begin downloading the
data from the memory key.
Copy Data to Memory Key from Source Console
To copy the contents of a console into the memory key.
1. Remove power from the Magellan console (AC and battery)
and connect the memory key to the 5-pin connector on the
left side of the back of the console (see Figure 10 on page 9).
2. Re-apply both AC and battery power to the console.
3. Press the [
NEXT
] key and then the [
OK
] key. Magellan will
begin copying its data into the memory key.
The installer code of the Magellan console used to
download data to the memory key must be the same
installer code programmed in the Magellan console that is
to download the contents from the same memory key. If the
installer codes do not match, the contents of the memory
key cannot be downloaded into the receiving console.
Example: The contents of the Magellan console A will be
copied into memory key B. The installer code for console A

User Codes
A person must be assigned to a user code in order to have
access to Magellan. A user code defines the extent of a user’s
access to the system and consists of a code # (PIN) and user
options. Magellan supports one Installer code, one Maintenance
code and up to 16 user codes (one System Master code and 15
User codes).
User Code Length
Section [090]: Option [1]
Option [1] OFF = 6-digit user codes
Option [1] ON = 4-digit user codes (default)
All user 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 User Code Length is changed from 4 digits to 6 digits
when user codes have already been programmed, the
console 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
to 6-digit access codes. When switching from 6 digits to 4
digits, the console will simply remove the final 2 digits of
the access code. For example, 123456 will become 1234.
Installer Code
Section [181]; Default = 000000
The Installer code is used to enter the console's programming
mode (see Programming Using the Built-in Keypad on page 11),
which allows you to program all the features, options and
commands of the Magellan console. The Installer code can be 4-
or 6-digits in length (see User Code Length on page 12) where
each digit can be any value from 0 to 9. The Installer code
cannot be used to program any user code.
To change the Installer code:

Zone Programming
Magellan supports up to 16 wireless zones where each zone can
be configured with a different zone definition and option. Each
zone can also have a voice label recorded for it. Magellan’s
zones can be programmed using section programming or
through the Installer menu.
See Quick Setup on page 4 for more information on zone
programming using the Installer menu.
Zone Programming Overview
After assigning and setting up your wireless transmitters, define
the associated zone's parameters. The zone parameters define
the type of zone and how the control panel will react when an
alarm condition occurs on that zone. These zone parameters are
programmed into one section as detailed in Figure 16 on page
13.
Figure 16: Magellan Zone Programming Overview
Zone Definitions
Sections [001] to [016] represent zones 1 through 16
respectively, where the first three digits in each of these sections
represents the zone's definition. To disable a zone, enter 000
and then press the [#] key. There are 15 available Zone
Definitions, which are described as follows:
Entry Delay 1
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 001
When the system is armed and a zone defined with Entry Delay
1 opens, the console will generate an alarm after the
programmed Entry Delay 1 Timer elapses. This is to provide
users with enough time to enter the protected area and disarm
the system. Entry Delay zones are commonly used at the entry/
exit points of the protected area (i.e. front/back door, garage,
etc.). Using different Entry Delays (see Entry Delay 2 below) is
useful when, for example, one entry point requires a longer delay
than the other entry point.
Entry Delay 1 Timer
Section [060]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default
= 45 seconds
Enter the desired 3-digit delay value from 000 to 255
seconds into section [060] to program the Entry Delay 1
Timer.
Entry Delay 2
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 002
Entry Delay 2 zones are identical to the Entry Delay 1 zones (see
Entry Delay 1 on page 13), except it uses a separate Entry Delay
Timer.
Entry Delay 2 Timer
Section [061]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default
= 45 seconds
Enter the desired 3-digit delay value from 000 to 255
seconds into section [061] to program the Entry Delay 2
Timer.
Follow Zones
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 003
When an armed Follow zone opens, the console will immediately
generate an alarm unless an Entry Delay zone opens first as
described in the situations below:
• If an armed Follow zone opens after an Entry Delay zone
opens, the console waits until the Entry Delay Timer has
elapsed before generating an alarm.
• If an armed Follow zone opens after more than one Entry
Delay zone opens, the console will wait until the Entry Delay
Timer of the zone that opened first has elapsed.
This feature is commonly used when a motion detector is
protecting the area occupied by the entry point keypad. This will
prevent the motion detector from causing an alarm when a user
enters through the entry point to disarm the system.

14 Reference & Installation Manual
Follow/Stay Zones
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 004
Follow/Stay zones function as follows:
• All zones defined as Follow/Stay zones become Follow
zones (refer to Follow Zones on page 13) when the
Magellan system is Regular armed.
• All zones defined as Follow/Stay zones become Stay zones
when the Magellan system is Stay or Instant armed.
Instant Zones
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 005
When an armed Instant zone opens, the console immediately
generates an alarm. Instant zones are commonly used for
windows, patio doors, skylights and other perimeter type zones.
Instant/Stay Zones
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 006
Instant/Stay zones function as follows:
• All zones defined as Instant/Stay zones become Instant
zones (refer to Instant Zones on page 14) when the
Magellan system is Regular armed.
• All zones defined as Instant/Stay zones become Stay zones
when the Magellan system is Stay or Instant armed.
Standard 24Hr. Fire Zones
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 007
Whenever a Standard 24Hr. Fire Zone opens, whether it is
armed or disarmed, the console will generate the following:
• The console can send the corresponding Alarm Report
Code from sections [187] to [190].
• Alarms are always audible regardless of other settings. Fire
alarms generate an intermittent (pulsed) bell/siren output
signal as shown in Figure 17 on page 14.
Figure 17: Bell/Siren Output during a Fire Alarm
Delayed Fire Zones
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 008
When a Delayed 24Hr. Fire Zone opens, whether it is armed or
disarmed, the console will react as shown in Figure 18 on page
14. Delayed 24Hr. Fire Zones are commonly used in residential
homes where a smoke detector often generates false alarms (i.e.
burning bread, etc.).
Figure 18: Delayed Fire Zone
24Hr. Burglary Zones
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 009
Whenever a 24Hr. Burglary Zone opens, whether the system is
armed or disarmed, the console will immediately generate an
alarm.
24Hr. Hold-up Zones
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 010
When a 24Hr. Hold-up zone opens, whether it is armed or
disarmed, the console will immediately generate an alarm. The
SIA FSK reporting format includes specific report codes to
identify the alarm as a Hold-up alarm.
24Hr. Buzzer Zones
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16, 3-digit # = 011
This zone definition is particularly useful when a user wishes to
be notified when something such as a safe or locker within the
home has been accessed (i.e. a child accessing a valuable
collection). This zone definition functions as follows:
• Whenever a 24Hr. Buzzer Zone opens, whether the console
is armed or disarmed, the console sets off the keypads’
buzzers to indicate that the zone was breached.
• The console will report the alarm, but will not enable the bell/
siren output.
• Enter any valid access code on the keypad to stop the
buzzer.

respectively as demonstrated in Figure 16 on page 13. After
entering the 3-digit Zone Definition (see Zone Definitions on
page 13), select one or more of the following Zone Options by
using the Feature Select Programming Method (see page 11):
Auto-zone Shutdown
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16; Option [1]
Option [1] OFF =Auto-zone Shutdown disabled
Option [1] ON =Auto-zone Shutdown enabled (default)
If, in a single armed period, the number of alarms generated by a
zone with the Auto Zone Shutdown option enabled exceeds the
number defined by the Auto Zone Shutdown Counter, the
console will no longer generate an alarm for that zone. The Auto
Zone Shutdown Counter resets every time the system is armed.
Auto-zone Shutdown Counter
Section [067]: 001 to 015 alarms; 000 = Disabled; Default =
5 alarms
Enter the desired limit into section [067] to program the
Auto-zone Shutdown Counter.
Bypass Option
Section [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16; Option [2]
Option [2] OFF =Bypass option disabled
Option [2] ON =Selected zone is bypass enabled (default)
When a user uses the Bypass Programming feature, only zones
with the Bypass option enabled can be programmed as
bypassed.
Fire zones cannot be programmed with the Bypass option
because the console will not bypass a Fire zone.
Alarm Types
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16; Options [4] and [5]
When an alarm condition occurs, the console can be
programmed to react as shown in Table 2 on page 15.
Table 2: Alarm Type Options
The Alarm Type options cannot be programmed for Fire
zones. Fire zones are automatically programmed with an
audible pulsed alarm. This cannot be altered.
Intellizone
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16; option [6]
Option [6] OFF =Intellizone disabled (default)
Option [6] ON =Intellizone enabled
This feature reduces the possibility of false alarms. When a zone
with the Intellizone option opens, the console does not
immediately generate an alarm. First it triggers the Intellizone
Delay Timer. If any of the following conditions occur during this
period, the panel will generate an alarm:
• During the Intellizone Delay, a second zone has caused an
alarm.
• During the Intellizone Delay, the zone in alarm has restored
(closed) and re-occurred (opened).
• The zone in alarm is still open after the Intellizone Delay has
elapsed.
Options Description
[4] [5]
OFF OFF Audible steady alarm (default)
When the conditions for an alarm have been
met, the control panel can transmit the
appropriate Zone Alarm report code (see
page 24) and provides a steady output for the
on-board siren.
OFF ON Audible pulsed alarm
When the conditions for an alarm have been
met, Magellan can transmit the appropriate Zone
Alarm report code (see page 24) and provides a
pulsed output (see Figure 17 on page 14) for the
on-board siren.
ON OFF Silent alarm
When the conditions for an alarm are met, the
control panel can transmit the appropriate Zone
Alarm report code (see page 24) and will not
activate the control panel’s bell output. The
appropriate
ARM
or
STATUS
LED on the keypads
will flash to indicate an alarm and the user will
still have to disarm the system.
ON ON Report only
When the conditions for an alarm have been
met, the control panel can transmit the
appropriate Zone Alarm report code (see
page 24). The system will not have to be
disarmed.

Delay Before Alarm Report Code Transmission
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16; option [7]
Option [7] OFF =Delay alarm transmission disabled (default)
Option [7] ON =Delay alarm transmission enabled
This feature is commonly used with Entry Delay zones to reduce
false alarms created by new users who may not disarm the
system in time. This feature works as follows:
• When an alarm condition occurs on a zone with this option
enabled, the console enables the bell/siren output, but does
not report the alarm to the central station until the end of the
Alarm Before Transmission Delay.
• During this period, disarming the system disables the bell/
siren output and cancels the report code transmission.
Alarm Transmission Delay
Section [075]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default = 0
seconds
Enter the desired 3-digit delay value into section [075] to
program the Alarm Transmission Delay.
Remote Panic Disarm Lock Delay
Section [078]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default = 20
seconds
When a panic alarm is generated through the use of a remote
control, the system cannot be disarmed by remote control during
the Remote Panic Disarm Lock Delay.
Enter the desired 3-digit delay value into section [078] to
program the Remote Panic Disarm Lock Delay.
Force Zones
Sections [001] to [016]: Zones 1 to 16; Option [8]
Option [8] OFF =Force zone disabled
Option [8] ON =Selected zone is Force enabled (default)
Any open Force zones at the time of arming will be considered
deactivated by the console. If during this period a deactivated
zone is closed, the console will revert that zone to active status.
Consequently, the console will generate an alarm if the zone is
breached.
Fire zones cannot be programmed with the Force Zone
option because the console will not bypass a Fire zone when
the system is being Force armed.
Stay Delay Zones
Section [094]: Options [1]
Option [1] OFF =Stay Delay zone disabled (default)
Option [1] ON =Stay Delay zone enabled
When a Stay Delay zone is armed using the Stay or Instant
arming methods and the zone is triggered, an alarm will not
generate until the programmed Stay Delay elapses. A zone
defined as Stay Delay 1 follows the Entry Delay 1 Timer of its
assigned partition. Likewise, a zone defined as Stay Delay 2
follows the Entry Delay 2 Timer of its assigned partition. To
program the Entry Delay Timers, refer to Entry Delay 1 and Entry
Delay 2 on page 13.
Zones 15 and 16 become Hardwire Zones
Section [095]: Options [1] and [2]
Option [1] OFF = Wireless zone 15 remains unchanged (default)
Option [1] ON = Wireless zone 15 uses the on-board hardwire
zone input 1
Option [2] OFF = Wireless zone 16 remains unchanged (default)
Option [2] ON = Wireless zone 16 uses the on-board hardwire
zone input 2
The Magellan console comes with two on-board zone inputs,
hardwire zone inputs 1 and 2. Section [095] options [1] and [2]
allow you to convert zones 15 and 16 from wireless to hardwire
by allowing you to connect hardwire detection devices (i.e. door
contact) to zone inputs 1 and 2.
• With section [095] option [1] ON, zone 15 is connected to
zone input 1.
• With section [095] option [2] ON, zone 16 is connected to
zone input 2.
EOL (End-Of-Line) Zones
Section [095]: Option [3]
Option [3] OFF = Hardwire zones 1 & 2 do not require EOL
resistors (default)
Option [3] ON = Hardwire zones 1 & 2 require EOL resistors
This feature only applies to Magellan’s on-board zone
inputs. Section [095] options [1] and/or [2] (see Zones 15
and 16 become Hardwire Zones on page 16) must be ON in
order to use this feature.
If the hardwire detection devices connected to Magellan’s zone
inputs 1 and 2 have input terminals that require 1K9 end of line
resistors, enable (ON) section [095] option [3]. For details on
using EOL resistors, refer to page 8.

Wireless Programming
The Magellan system supports up to 16 wireless zones and two
wireless doorbells. These wireless zones are monitored using
transmitters such as wireless detectors and door contacts. The
Magellan console only supports the Paradox Magellan series of
wireless transmitters. The programming of the transmitters is
accomplished in two steps:
1. Assign the wireless transmitter to Magellan.
2. Program the wireless zone.
Assigning Wireless Zone Transmitters
Sections [021] to [036]: Zones 1-16; Wireless Transmitters 1-16
Sections [021] to [036] represent zones 1 to 16. A wireless
transmitter assigned to a section ([021] to [036]) will be assigned
to the zone represented by the section.
For example, a wireless transmitter assigned to section [025] will
be assigned to zone 5.
To assign a wireless transmitter:
1. Access the installer programming mode (page 11).
2. Enter the [
SECTION
] corresponding to the desired zone.
3. Enter the 6-digit [
SERIAL
NUMBER
] of the wireless transmitter.
The serial number is located on the inside of the wireless
transmitter.
The wireless transmitters must be activated once having been
assigned to the Magellan console. To activate a transmitter,
insert the batteries and close the cover. To ensure proper
synchronization between the console and the transmitter, open
and close the zone corresponding to the transmitter.
Are the zones that have wireless transmitters assigned to them
programmed? See Zone Definitions on page 13 and Zone
Options on page 15.
Wireless transmitters can also be assigned through the Installer
menu. Press [
MENU

Table 8: Special Keys for Telephone Numbers
Central Station Telephone Numbers (CSTNs)
Section [111] = Central Station Telephone Number 1
Section [112] = Central Station Telephone Number 2
The Magellan console uses the CSTNs (Central Station
Telephone Numbers) programmed in sections [111] and/or [112]
to connect and communicate with the central monitoring station.
The following situations also apply:
• If after eight attempts of calling one central station telephone
number have failed, the console will then dial the backup
telephone number (if section [099] option [1] is enabled. See
CSTN 2 as Backup Number on page 26).
• If the Alternate Dial option (page 28) is enabled, the console
will dial the programmed backup telephone number after
every failed attempt (if section [099] option [1] is enabled.
See CSTN 2 as Backup Number on page 26).
• If no backup telephone number is programmed, the console
will never report to the backup telephone number.
For more information on how these telephone numbers are
used, please refer to Event Call Direction on page 27 and
Reporting Formats on page 27. Also refer to Delay Between
Dialing Attempts on page 28.
CSTN 2 as Backup Number
Section [099]: Option [1]
Option [1] OFF =Use CSTN 2 as a central station telephone
number only
Option [1] ON = CSTN 2 can be used a backup telephone
number (default)
CSTN 2 can also be used as a backup telephone number. If
section [099] option [1] is enabled (ON) the console will use
CSTN 2 as a backup telephone number.
For more information, please refer to Central Station
Telephone Numbers (CSTNs) on page 26 and Alternate
Dial Option on page 28.
Pager Telephone Number
Section [113]
The Magellan console uses the Pager telephone number
programmed in section [113] to connect and communicate the
numeric pager message programmed in section [114] (see
Pager Reporting Message on page 26) to a pager.
Pager Reporting Message
Section [114]: 32-digit decimal number (0 to 9 as well as [*]
and [#])
Program the desired numeric message you wish to send
whenever the console dials the Pager telephone number in
section [114]. If the message is less than 32 digits, press the
left [
ACTION
] key (ok) to save the message.
Voice Message Telephone Numbers
The Magellan console will use the Voice Message telephone
numbers (which are programmed in the Installer menu. Refer to
the Magellan Quick Setup Guide for more information) to play a
pre-recorded message to an external telephone or cellular
telephone. Please note the following when programming and
using this feature:
• The console will only dial a Voice Message telephone
number when the system is in alarm. The console begins
with the first programmed Voice Message telephone
number.
• When the call is connected, the console will play the pre-
recorded message and the zone labels of all the zones that
are in alarm.
• The person at the other end of the telephone must
acknowledge the call by pressing the [#] key on their
telephone.
• The console will repeat the message a programmed amount
of times (see Voice Message Repetitions on page 26) if no
acknowledgement is immediately received.
• If no acknowledgement is received before the number of
repetitions has elapsed, the console will then call the next
programmed Voice Message telephone number and repeat
the process.
• After calling the last programmed Voice Message telephone
number without an acknowledgement, the console will once
again call the first Voice Message telephone number and
repeat the process a maximum of three times.
• If no acknowledgement is received after the third time, the
console will generate a Fail to Comm. event and trouble.
Voice Message Repetitions
Section [079]: 001 to 255 repetitions; Default = 3 repetitions
This feature determines the amount of times the console will
repeat the pre-recorded message played with the Voice
Message telephone number without receiving an
acknowledgement. Enter any 3-digit number from 001 to
255 into section [079] to program the Voice Message
Repetitions feature.
Service Telephone Number
Section [119]
When there is a trouble in the system that requires servicing from
your installer, the console will offer you the option of calling the
telephone number programmed in section [119]. After selecting
the option, the console becomes a speaker-phone.

returns to tone/DTMF dialing and will once again switch to pulse
dialing on the fifth attempt.
Telephone Line Monitoring (TLM)
Section [098]: Options [1] and [2]
When enabled, the system verifies the existence of a telephone
line once every second. A line test failure occurs when the TLM
detects less than 3 volts for the period defined by the TLM Fail
Timer (page 28). If the line test fails, the Magellan console
generates one or more conditions as defined by the TLM settings
below. These will be restored when the console detects the
telephone line again.
Table 10: Telephone Line Monitoring Options
Please note that when the dialer detects an incoming call, the
TLM test will stop for 1 minute.
TLM Fail Timer
Section [073]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default = 32
seconds
If TLM does not detect the existence of a telephone line for the
duration of this period, the control panel will generate the
condition(s) defined by the TLM options (see Telephone Line
Monitoring (TLM) on page 28).
Recent Close Delay
Section [066]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled;

30 Reference & Installation Manual
Programmable Outputs
A PGM is a programmable output that toggles to its opposite
state (i.e. a normally open PGM will close) when a specific event
has occurred in the system. For example, a PGM can be used to
activate bells or strobe lights, open/close garage doors and
much more. When a PGM closes, the control panel supplies a
ground to the PGM activating any device or relay connected to it.
When a PGM opens, the circuit opens from ground, therefore,
cutting power to any devices connected to it.
PGM Activation Event
Section [086] = PGM1 Activation Event
Section [088] = PGM2 Activation Event
This feature allows you to program the Magellan console to
activate a PGM when a specific event occurs in the system. The
PGM will remain in its active state until the programmed PGM
Deactivation Event (see page 30) occurs or when the PGM
Delay (see page 30) elapses. To program a PGM Activation
Event:
1. Enter the section that corresponds to the desired PGM;
PGM1 = [086], PGM2 = [088].
2. Enter the [
EVENT
GROUP
#].
3. Enter the [
SUB
-
GROUP
#].
The “AC Loss” PGM event (Event Group #28, Event Sub-group
#01) will only occur after the Power Failure Report Delay
elapses (see page 29).
For the Event List, see the PGM Table in the Magellan
Programming Guide.
PGM Deactivation Event
Section [087] = PGM1
Section [089] = PGM2
After PGM activation (see PGM Activation Event on page 30),
the PGM will return to its normal state (deactivate) when the
programmed PGM Deactivation Event occurs. To program a
Deactivation Event:
1. Enter section that represents the desired PGM; PGM1 =
[087], PGM2 = [089].
2. Enter the [
EVENT
GROUP
#].
3. Enter the [
SUB
-
GROUP
#].
A PGM can also be set to deactivate after a programmed period
elapses (see PGM Delay on page 30). If using the PGM Delay,
sections [087] and [089] can be used as a second PGM
Activation Event.
For the Event List, see the PGM Table in the Magellan
Programming Guide.
PGM Delay
Section [068] = PGM1, Section [069] = PGM2
001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Follow Deactivation Event;
Default = 5 seconds
Instead of deactivating the PGM on the occurrence of a specific
event, the PGM will deactivate after the period programmed in
here has elapsed. Enter 000 to have the PGMs deactivate with a
PGM Deactivation Event (see page 30).
If a PGM Delay is programmed, the PGM Deactivation Event
can be used as a second PGM Activation Event.
PGM Normal State
Section [090]: Options [7] (PGM1) and [8] (PGM2)
Option [7] OFF = PGM1 Normally Open (default)
Option [7] ON = PGM1 Normally Closed
Option [8] OFF = PGM2 Normally Open (default)
Option [8] ON = PGM2 Normally Closed
A PGM toggles to its opposite state (i.e. a normally open PGM
will close) when a specific event has occurred in the system. You
can program each PGM output to be normally open (N.O.) or
normally closed (N.C.) by enabling or disabling options [7] and
[8] in section [090].
PGM X10 Option
Section [091]: Options [7] (PGM1) and [8] (PGM2)
Option [7] OFF = PGM1 used as programmable output (default)
Option [7] ON = PGM1 used as X10 output 7
Option [8] OFF = PGM2 used as programmable output (default)
Option [8] ON = PGM2 used as X10 output 8
With section [091] options [7] and [8] enabled (ON), PGMs 1 and
2 will follow the ON/OFF state of X10 outputs 7 and 8. Therefore
the PGMs will function as follows:
• When X10 output 7 is enabled, PGM1 will activate. When
X10 output 7 is disabled, PGM1 will deactivate.
• When X10 output 8 is enabled, PGM2 will activate. When
X10 output 8 is disabled, PGM2 will deactivate.
When section [091] options [7] and [8] are enabled, the PGM
outputs will disregard their PGM activation and deactivation
events (sections [086] to [089]).

WinLoad Software Settings
Panel Answer Options
The following two options define how Magellan answers an
incoming call from a computer using the WinLoad Installer
Upload/Download Software.
Answering Machine Override
Section [074]: 010 to 255 seconds; 000 = disabled; Default =
disabled
When using WinLoad to communicate remotely with an
installation site that uses an answering machine or service, the
answering machine override must be programmed. Using
WinLoad, you will call Magellan, hang up, then call back. If the
installation site is called back within the delay programmed in
section [074], the console will override the answering machine or
service by picking-up the line after the first ring on the second
call. You must wait at least 10 seconds before attempting the
second call, otherwise, the console will think it is the same call.
For details on how to use WinLoad, refer to the WinLoad
On-line Help.
Example: A security installation is using an answering machine
set to answer after three rings. If section [074] has been
programmed with 040 (40 seconds) and the second call is made
within 40 seconds, Magellan will pick up the line on the first ring.
If it takes more than 40 seconds, the console will not answer on
the first ring and the answering machine will answer after three
rings.
Number of Rings
Section [072]: 001 to 015 rings; 000 = disabled; Default = 008
This value represents the number of rings Magellan will wait
before picking-up the line. If the line is not answered after the
number of programmed rings, the console will answer the call.
You must wait at least 10 seconds before attempting the second
call or Magellan will think it is the same call.
Panel Identifier
Section [108]: 4-digit Hexa-decimal number from 0000 to FFFF
This 4-digit code identifies the console to WinLoad before
initiating communication. Magellan will verify that the Panel
Identifier in the WinLoad software is the same as the code
programmed in section [108]. If the codes do not match, the
console will not establish communication. Therefore, be sure to
program the same panel identifier code into both Magellan and
WinLoad.
PC Password
Section [109]: 4-digit Hexa-decimal number from 0000 to FFFF
This 4-digit password identifies the PC to Magellan before
establishing communication. Program the same PC password
into both the console and WinLoad. If the passwords do not
match, WinLoad will not establish communication.
PC Telephone Number
Section [118]
Magellan will dial the number programmed in section [118] when
trying to initiate communication with a computer using WinLoad.
You can enter any digit from 0 to 9 and any special keys or
functions (see Table 8 on page 26) up to a maximum of 32 digits.
Call Back Feature
Section [098]: Option [4]
Option [4] OFF = Call Back feature disabled (default)
Option [4] ON = Call Back feature enabled
The Call Back feature provides additional security. When section

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules subpart D and
CS-03. Inside the cover of this equipment is a label that contains, among
other information, the FCC registration number of this equipment.

number and the ringer equivalence of the protective circuit.
FCC REGISTRATION NUMBER:5A7AL01BMG-6060
RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER:0.1B (U.S. & Canada)
USOC JACK:RJ31X (USA), CA31A (CANADA)
TELEPHONE CONNECTION REQUIREMENTS
Except for telephone company provided ringers, all connections to the
telephone network shall be made through standard plugs and telephone
company provided jacks, or equivalent, in such a manner as to allow for
easy, immediate disconnection of terminal equipment. Standard jacks
shall be so arranged that, if plug connected thereto is withdrawn, no
interference to operation of equipment at customer's premises which
remains connected to telephone network shall occur by reason of such
withdrawal.
INCIDENCE OF HARM
Should terminal equipment/protective circuitry cause harm to telephone
network, telephone company shall, where practicable, notify customer
that temporary disconnection of service may be required; however,
where prior notice is not practicable, the telephone company may
temporarily discontinue service if action is deemed reasonable in
circumstances. In case of temporary discontinuance, telephone
company shall promptly notify customer and will be given opportunity to
correct the situation.
CHANGES IN TELEPHONE COMPANY EQUIPMENT OR FACILITIES
The telephone company may make changes in its communication
facilities, equipment operations or procedures, where such actions are
reasonably required and proper in its business. Should any such
changes render customer's terminal equipment incompatible with the
telephone company facilities, the customer shall be given adequate
notice to effect the modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.
GENERAL
This equipment shall not be used on coin telephone lines. Connection to
party line service is subject to state tariffs.
RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER (REN)
The ren is useful to determine the quantity of devices that you may
connect to your telephone line and still have all of those devices ring
when your telephone number is called. In most, but not all areas, sum of
the ren's of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five
(5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that you may connect to
your line, you may want to contact your local telephone company.
