Introduction
Magellan is the first security system to combine security with popular consumer features and a stylish design. Magellan looks different
from anything else in the security industry. Install it anywhere in your home or small business–Magellan blends beautifully with any décor.
Listen to the radio, leave a message or use your system as a telephone, alarm clock or monitoring device.
Magellan consists of wireless detection devices installed at specific entry and exit points, as well as other vulnerable areas, such as
windows. These devices protect the premises and communicate with Magellan’s main console. If you have armed the system and a
device detects a breach, a siren will be activated and your monitoring station will immediately be notified by phone. Choose from wireless
motion detectors with pet immunity, door contacts, and remote controls that automate your most frequently used security functions.
With Magellan you have security and so much more:

Chapter 2: Arming / Disarming
This chapter will cover the multiple arming methods that Magellan employs such as Regular arming and Stay arming. This chapter will
also cover disarming the system, what to do during a fire alarm, fire safety tips and panic alarms.
Arming
When your system is armed, it can respond to any breach in the protected zones by generating an alarm and by transmitting a report to
your monitoring station. Though the arming methods explained in this section pertain to arming through Magellan’s keypad, the system
can also be armed using your remote control. See Remote Controls on page 7.
Exit Delay Timer
When you arm your system, it will trigger the Exit Delay Timer to provide you with enough time to exit the protected area before your
system is armed. You can program the Exit Delay Timer from 1 second to 255 seconds (default 45 seconds). Only the System
Master user can program the Exit Delay Timer. To program the Exit Delay Timer:
menu
next
next
System
Master code
ok
ok
Exit Delay from
001 to 255 secs.
next
ok
Press
until
desired
tone
If a Delay zone is opened and then closed while the system is in Exit Delay mode, the Exit Delay timer will be reduced to 10 seconds.
UL installations require a maximum exit delay of 60 seconds.
Regular Arming
This method is used for the everyday arming of your system. All
defined zones in the system must be closed (the green READY light
in ON) to Regular arm the system. To Regular arm your system:
Arming / Disarming
User code
Stay Arming
Stay arming will partially arm your system to permit you to remain
in your home by arming the outer zones of your system (e.g. doors
and windows) and ignoring interior zones (e.g. motion detectors).
All defined zones in the system must be closed (the green READY
light is ON) to Stay arm the system. To Stay arm your system:
User code
Instant Arming
This arming method is the same as Stay arming (page 10) except
that the Entry Delay Timer (see page 12) is ignored. Therefore,
any armed zone that is breached will immediately generate an
alarm. To Instant arm your system:
User code
Press &
hold for
3 secs.
Force Arming
Force arming ignores open zones allowing you to arm your system. Once the zone closes, the system will then arm that zone as
well. This feature is useful when a motion detector is protecting the area where your Magellan console is located. During Force
arming, the motion detector will remain unarmed until you exit the area. The system will then arm the motion detector. By default,
your system is programmed with this feature. You can also Force arm your system using your remote control (see page 7).
Please note that Force arming is not permitted in UL installations.
Bypass Programming
You can bypass certain zones when you arm the system. When a
zone is bypassed, it will be ignored the next time you arm the
system. Once the system is disarmed, the system will “unbypass”
the zone. Zones that can be bypassed are defined by your
installer. Fire zones cannot be bypassed. To bypass a zone:
10
menu
next
Press
until
desired
zone
byp
The light
will
turn ON whenever a
zone or multiple
zones are bypassed.
User Guide
One-Touch Arming
If enabled by your installer, you can arm your system with the following arming
methods simply by pressing and holding (for three seconds) the appropriate
function key. You do not have to enter your User code. See Figure 1 on page 6
for the location of the function keys. Table 1 shows what function keys can be
used for one-touch arming.
* To Instant arm your system using one-touch arming, press and hold the [STAY
ARM] key and then during Exit Delay mode, press and hold the [STAY ARM] key
once more.

Auto-Arming
You can set the time that the system will arm itself automatically. There are two methods of auto-arming:
Timed Auto-Arming
Your installer can set the Timed Auto-arming method to function in either Regular or Stay arming modes. A sixty-second Exit
Delay sequence will begin prior to your system automatically arming itself at the programmed time. To set the Timed Autoarming feature:
menu
ok
Program
time
No Movement Auto-Arming
Your system can be programmed to send a report to your monitoring station and/or arm the system if there is no activity in the
system during a specified period of time. Your installer can set No Movement Auto-arming to function in either Regular or Stay
arming modes. Talk to your installer for more information.
Please note that Auto-arming is not permitted in UL installations
Arming / Disarming
11
Disarming
When your system is disarmed, it deactivates any alarms in progress and it deactivates the zones so an alarm will not be triggered if
zones are breached.
Entry Delay Timer
Your installer will program designated entry points (i.e., the front door) with an Entry Delay timer. This delay gives you time to enter
the armed premises and enter your User code to disarm your system before the alarm is triggered. Up to two Entry Delay Timers can
be programmed in your Magellan console.
Please note that UL installations require a maximum entry delay of 45 seconds.
Programming the Entry Delay Timer
Program the Entry Delay Timer with a value that will give you ample time to disarm your system before the alarm is triggered.
Only the System Master user can program the Entry Delay Timer. To program the timer:
menu
ok

Disarming an Armed System
When an entry point, like the front door, is opened, Magellan will
produce a sound indicating that the system has started the Entry
Delay timer (page 12). If a valid User code is entered before the
Entry Delay timer elapses, your system will disarm and will not
generate an alarm. To disarm an armed system:

Disarming a System in Alarm
To disarm a system in alarm:
In the case of a burglar alarm, leave the premises immediately and call
the police from a safe location (i.e., neighbor’s).
User code
Alarm Memory Display
When an alarm has occurred in your system, the Magellan console will store that alarm in its alarm memory. All zones where alarms
have occurred will be stored in the alarm memory. The system will erase the contents of the alarm memory every time the system is
armed. The Magellan console will indicate that there is an alarm in memory by illuminating the
light and by displaying the
information symbol (see page 7) on the LCD screen. The alarm memory display can be viewed in two ways:
Through the Alarm Memory Menu

Fire Alarms
For complete coverage in residential units, smoke detectors should be installed in the following locations:
• In any hallway outside bedroom areas. Additional detectors should be installed for every bedroom area as shown in Figure 2 on page 14.
• On every floor of a multi-floor home or apartment.
• At both ends of a bedroom hallway if the hallway is more than 12m (40ft) long.
• At the bottom of a basement stairwell.
• At the top of the first to second floor stairwell and subsequent stairwells in multi-floored residential units.

User code
Call your monitoring station
quickly to advise them of the
false alarm.
User Guide
Delayed Fire Zones
If the zone is a Delayed Fire Zone, there is an automatic delay
before your system contacts your monitoring station. Refer to
Figure 3 on page 16 to prevent unnecessary reporting of false
alarms. To clear a fire alarm triggered by accident:
Press any
key within 30
seconds of
alarm
Clear problem
from area (i.e.
smoke around the
smoke detector).
If the problem
remains after
90 seconds,
the alarm will

delayed by
another 30
seconds
If you are unable to cancel the false alarm, your system will send
an alert. Call your monitoring station to advise them of the false alarm.
Fire Safety Tips
How should you prepare in case of a fire in your home or business?
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Remind everyone to escape first, and then call for help.
Develop a fire escape plan and designate a meeting place outside.
Practice the escape plan frequently.
Plan two ways to escape from every room, if possible.
Practice feeling the way out with eyes closed.
Instruct everyone never to stand up during a fire. Always crawl under the smoke and keep mouths covered.
Instruct everyone never to return to a burning building for any reason; it may cost them their life.
Check smoke detectors regularly. Working smoke detectors dramatically increase everyone's chance of surviving a fire.
Arming / Disarming

Minimizing Home Fire Hazards
Figure 3: Delayed Fire Zone
How can you avoid the three most common causes of fires at home?
•
•
•
Never leave cooking food unattended. It is the leading cause of
fire injuries. Cooking fires often result from unattended cooking
and human error, rather than mechanical failure.
Stay alert when smoking. Careless smoking is the leading cause
of fire deaths. Smoke detectors and smoulder-resistant bedding
and upholstered furniture are significant fire deterrents.
Maintain your heating system. Faulty heating systems are the
second leading cause of residential fires.
Panic Alarms
Your system can be programmed to send an alarm to your monitoring
station to request help from the police, a medical facility*, the fire
department or anyone you wish when you press a pre-determined
combination of keys on Magellan’s main keypad. To generate a panic
alarm, simultaneously press and hold the key combinations displayed in
Figure 4 on page 17. Your installer can program the alarm to be either
silent or audible.
* Programming your system to send an alarm to your Central Monitoring
Station requesting help from a medical facility is not permitted in UL
installations.

Chapter 4: Access System Features by Phone
This chapter covers Magellan’s remote access feature that transforms any external touch-tone telephone into a keypad. Through the
telephone, you will be able to arm/disarm your system, listen to any messages, activate outputs and more.
Access System Features by Phone
Due to Magellan’s voice-assisted remote features, any touch-tone telephone can be turned into a keypad. Arm/disarm Magellan,
activate/deactivate Magellan’s PGM outputs, record/listen to messages and even turn Magellan into a speakerphone all via your
telephone. Using detailed voice prompts to guide your way, remote access to Magellan is as easy as picking up the telephone.
Please note the following:
• The following instructions pertain to entering commands and/or data through your telephone’s keypad. Therefore, whenever you are
instructed to perform an action and/or enter data, do so on your telephone’s keypad.
• Magellan will automatically hang up if no action is performed after 2 minutes.
• Press the [*] key at any time to exit and have Magellan hang up.
• When Magellan is in speakerphone mode, key [PHONE] on the center keypad will flash rapidly.
Step 1: Call Magellan from any touch-tone telephone
Pick up your telephone and dial the number of the telephone line
that your Magellan console is connected to (usually your home
number). If the telephone line that Magellan is connected to is
shared with an answering service or answering machine, you
have to override the answering service or machine. To override
the answering service or machine:
Step 2: Enter your user code

Chapter 5: Advanced Features
This chapter pertains to features and functions that only the System Master user can access.
This chapter covers User code programming, such as programming new users into the system. This chapter also covers some zone
features as well as instructions on how to customize Magellan to suit your needs.
Programming User Codes
User codes allow access to the system. Magellan supports up to 16 User codes where:
• Every user from 002 to 016 is assigned a User code (user 001 is the System Master).
• Your installer can program User codes to be four or six digits in length.
• Each digit can be any value from 0 to 9.

It is recommended that you change the default System Master code to a code of your choosing. This will prevent unauthorized users from
accessing and modifying options.
Duress User Code
If enabled by your installer, User code 016 can be programmed as a Duress code. If you are forced to arm or disarm your system,
entering the user code for User 016 will arm or disarm your system and immediately transmit a silent alarm (Duress code) to your
monitoring station.
Deleting a User
When you delete a user, the remote control that is assigned to that user will also be deleted. To delete an existing user:

Disarm with user: Use this report type to program the Magellan console to call you when specific users disarm the system. After
entering the menu, select the desired user(s) that you wish reported. This feature is useful when you wish to know when specific
people disarm the system.
For example, you can program Magellan to call you whenever your children disarm your system thus informing you that they
have arrived home.
Panic: Choose which type of panics you want to report. All types can be selected: Emergency, auxiliary, fire, and duress.
System troubles: Use this report type to have the Magellan console call you when specific troubles occur. After entering the
menu, select the desired trouble(s) you wish to be notified about. This feature can be used to inform you of a power failure.
User Guide
•
Non-medical Emergency alarm: Use this report type to have the Magellan console call you when specific users require nonmedical emergency assistance. When the programmed users press the appropriate key on their remote controls (see Remote
Controls on page 7), the Magellan console will make a buzzing sound and then call one or both programmed telephone
numbers. After entering the menu, select the desired user(s) that you wish reported. For example, if there is an elderly parent
who lives in your home, you can program Magellan to call you whenever they require assistance. All they have to do is press the
appropriate button on their remote control.
One of the user’s remote control buttons must be programmed with the Non-medical Emergency alarm option in order for the Nonmedical Emergency alarm to function. Talk to your installer about this feature.
•
Zone activation: When a specified zone is breached or opened, the Magellan console will call one or both of the programmed
telephone numbers. After entering this menu, select the desired zones you wish affected. Use this feature to be informed when a
specific zone is breached. For example, if you have a gun closet at home, you can have Magellan call you whenever the gun
closet is opened or breached.

Limited Warranty
Paradox Security Systems Ltd. (“Seller”) warrants its products to be free from manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for one-year following the date of manufacture. Seller will, within this period, at its option, repair or replace any product
failing to operate correctly without charge to the original purchaser or user. This warranty will not apply to any equipment, or any parts thereof, which have been repaired by others, improperly installed, improperly used, abused, altered, damaged,
subjected to acts of God, or on which any serial numbers have been altered, defaced or removed. Seller will not be responsible for any dismantling or reinstallation charges.
THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BEYOND THE DESCRIPTION HEREIN. THERE IS NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR A WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES ON THE PART OF SELLER, ITS SUPPLIERS AND/OR AFFILIATES.
Any action for breach of warranty, including but not limited to any implied warranty of merchantability, must be brought within three months following the end of the warranty period. IN NO CASE WILL SELLER OR ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE TO
ANYONE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF THIS OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EVEN IF THE LOSS OR DAMAGE IS CAUSED BY THE SELLER’S OWN NEGLIGENCE OR
FAULT.
In case of defect, contact the security professional who installed and maintains your security system. In order to exercise the warranty, the product must be returned to the indicated RMA location by the security professional, shipping costs prepaid and
insured. After repair or replacement, Seller assumes the cost of returning products under warranty. Seller will have no obligation under this warranty, or otherwise, if the product has been repaired by others, improperly installed, improperly used, abused,
altered, damaged, subjected to accident, nuisance, flood, fire or acts of God, or on which any serial numbers have been altered, defaced or removed. Seller will not be responsible for any dismantling, reassembly or reinstallation charges.
This warranty contains the entire warranty. Any prior agreements or representations, whether oral or written, are either merged herein or are expressly cancelled. Seller neither assumes, nor authorizes any other person purporting to act on its behalf to
modify, to change, or to assume for it, any other warranty or liability concerning its products.
Notwithstanding anything herein, in no event shall Seller or its affiliates be liable for an amount in excess of Seller’s original selling price of the product, for any loss or damage, whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or otherwise arising out of
any failure of the product. Seller’s warranty, as hereinabove set forth, shall not be enlarged, diminished or affected by and no obligation or liability shall arise from Seller offering to render or rendering technical advice or services in connection with the
purchase of goods hereunder.
SELLER STRONGLY RECOMMENDS THAT THE ENTIRE SYSTEM BE COMPLETELY TESTED MONTHLY.
Warning: Despite frequent testing, and due to, but not limited to, any or all of the following: criminal tampering, electrical or communication disruption, or improper use, it is possible for the system to fail to perform as expected. Seller does not represent
that the product/system may not be compromised or circumvented or that the product or system will prevent any personal injury or property loss by burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise; nor that the product or system will in all cases provide adequate
warning or protection. A properly installed and maintained alarm may only reduce risk of burglary, robbery, fire or otherwise but it is not insurance or a guarantee that these events will not occur. CONSEQUENTLY, SELLER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY
FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR OTHER LOSS BASED ON A CLAIM THE PRODUCT FAILED TO GIVE WARNING. Therefore, the installer should in turn advise the consumer to take any and all precautions for his or her
safety including, but not limited to, fleeing the premises and calling 911, the police and/or fire department, in order to mitigate the possibilities of harm and/or damage.
Seller is not an insurer of either the property or safety of the user’s family or employees, and limits its liability for any loss or damage including incidental or consequential damages to Seller’s original selling price of the product in question, regardless of
the cause of such loss and/or damage.
Some locations do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or differentiate in their treatment of limitations of liabilities for ordinary or gross negligence,
therefore the above limitations may be reduced and/or not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have additional rights depending on the location.
Limitations of Alarm Systems
We strongly advise that you review and take into consideration the “Limitations of Alarm Systems” document available on our website at http://paradox.com/Terms/.
Warning for Connections to Non-Traditional Telephony (e.g. VoIP)
Paradox alarm equipment was designed to work effectively around traditional telephone systems. For those customers who are using a Paradox alarm panel connected to a non-traditional telephone system, such as "Voice Over Internet Protocol" (VoIP)
that converts the voice signal from your telephone to a digital signal traveling over the Internet, you should be aware that your alarm system may not function as effectively as with traditional telephone systems.
For example, if your VoIP equipment has no battery back-up, during a power failure your system's ability to transmit signals to the central station may be compromised. Or, if your VoIP connection becomes disabled, your telephone line monitoring feature
may also be compromised. Other concerns would include, without limitation, Internet connection failures which may be more frequent than regular telephone line outages.
We therefore strongly recommend that you discuss these and other limitations involved with operating an alarm system on a VoIP or other non-traditional telephone system with your installation company. They should be able to offer or recommend
measures to reduce the risks involved and give you a better understanding.
