Paradox Magellan Systems   7InstallationAC PowerMagellan requires a 12Vac (1A) or 16.5Vac (1A) transformer (not included) to supply power to the console. Connect the transformer to the AC terminals as shown in Figure 1 on page 7.Magellan can also be powered through a DC power supply. Connect a 12Vdc to 18Vdc (1A) power supply to the AC terminals to power the console. The alternate DC power supply is not for use in UL installations.Do not connect to a receptacle controlled by a switch.Figure 1: Connecting the TransformerDC PowerMagellan can also be powered through a DC power supply. Connect a 12Vdc to 18Vdc (1A) power supply to the AC terminals to power the console. Connect the transformer to the AC terminals as shown in Figure 2 on page 7.Figure 2: Connecting the DC Power SupplyBackup Battery PackMagellan uses a backup battery pack to provide power during a power loss. A 7.2Vdc 1.8Ah NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) rechargeable battery pack is included with the Magellan console. Connect the battery pack as shown in Figure 3 on page 7. Connect the backup battery pack after applying AC power.Figure 3: Connecting the Backup BatteryTo order a battery pack, the battery pack’s part number is: Paradox# 0780100178. The backup battery can support Magellan during an AC failure for 24 hours when in standby mode.Auxiliary OutputThe auxiliary power supply terminals can be used to power motion detectors. The combined current consumption of devices connected to the auxiliary power supply should not exceed 200mA. If the auxiliary output is overloaded and is shut down, you must disconnect all loads from the output for at least 10 seconds before reconnecting any load back to the auxiliary output.12Vac (1A) to 16Vac (1A) transformerDo not use any switch-controlled outlets.Back view of the Magellan console.Insert the transformer’s wires into the AC terminals.12Vdc to 18Vdc 1ADC Power SupplyInsert the transformer’s wires into the AC terminals.Back view of the Magellan console.Slide in the battery pack horizontally, tilt the battery pack downward and then tuck it in Magellan’s battery compartment.2.3.

8  Reference & Installation ManualFigure 4: Auxiliary Output ConnectionTelephone Line ConnectionsThe 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 ConnectConnect the telephone line through a RJ31X jack as shown in Figure 5 on page 8.Figure 5: Telephone Line Direct ConnectFor UL compliant installations, the Magellan console must be able to seize the telephone line and place a call in a non-medical 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 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 ConnectThe Magellan console can also be connected to a telephone line via its on-board LINE plug. See Figure 6 on page 8 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 Monitoring Station. It is recommended that the Direct Connect method (see page 8) be used to connect the telephone line.Figure 6: Line Plug ConnectionProgrammable Outputs (PGMs)Magellan comes equipped with one 100mA solid-state PGM output and one low powered open-collector; Max. handling current 50mA. 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 34 for more information on programming PGMs.Connect Magellan’s PGM outputs as shown in Method 1 in Figure 7 on page 9. 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 Insert the device’s wires into the AUX AND C terminals.Devices such as a light, etc.To connect the telephone line:1. Connect a RJ31X to the R-1, T-1, RING and TIP terminals as shown at right. 2. Connect the telephone company wires and the home telephone to the RJ31X.Back view of the Magellan console.4-pin RJ-11 cableBack view of the Magellan console. 121. Insert one end of the 4-pin RJ-11 cable into the LINE plug of the Magellan console. 2. Insert the other end of the RJ-11 cable into a standard telephone wall plug.
Paradox Magellan Systems   9Normally Closed (N.C.) as detailed in PGM Normal State (Onboard Only) on page 35.If the current draw on the PGMs is to exceed 100mA, we recommend using an external relay as shown in Method 2 in Figure 7 on page 9. For connecting PGM2, see Figure 8.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.Figure 7: PGM1 ConnectionsFigure 8: PGM2 ConnectionsHardwire Zone ConnectionsMagellan 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 9 on page 9. 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 31 and 32 Become Hardwire Zones on page 18 for more information.• After connecting the detection devices, the zones must be defined. See Zone Programming on page 15 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 9: Hardwire Zone ConnectionsExternal DC Power Supply Devices such as a light, etc.Devices such as a light, etc.External DC Power SupplyMethod 1(less than 50mA)Method 2(> 50mA)Back view of the Magellan console.External relayExternal DC Power Supply Devices such as a light, etc.Devices such as a light, etc.External DC Power SupplyMethod 1(less than 100mA)Method 2(exceeds 100mA)Back view of the Magellan console.External relay

For more information, see Programming Using a Paradox Memory Key on page 13.Figure 13: Connecting a Paradox Memory Key (PMC-3)The installer should verify the proper installation of the memory key.Location and MountingLocationThe 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 breaker 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 PlateMagellan 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 11), mount the wall plate onto the Magellan console with two screws as described in Mounting Magellan on the Wall on page 11 or Tabletop Mounting on page 12. Figure 14: Wall PlateFigure 15: Mounting Magellan onto the Wall PlateFigure 16: Magellan’s Back PlateMounting Magellan on the WallMagellan can be mounted on a wall by first securing the wall plate (see The Wall Plate on page 11) to the wall and then mounting the Magellan console on the secured wall plate as shown in Figure 15 on page 11 and Figure 16 on page 11. 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 14 on page 11.3. Place the console back plate flush against the mounted wall plate.Jumper ON:Read from and/or write to memory keyJumper OFF:Write protected (read from memory key only)A (x7)BCBCDDE
12  Reference & Installation Manual4. Slide the Magellan’s open slots labeled D (see Figure 16 on page 11) onto the wall plate’s tabs labeled B (see Figure 15 on page 11).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 15 on page 11 and Figure 16 on page 11) in the Magellan back plate. This will secure the console to the wall.Tabletop MountingMagellan 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 16 on page 11) onto the wall plate’s tabs labeled B (see Figure 15 on page 11).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 16 on page 11) in the Magellan back plate.5. Attach the plastic feet and rubber stops as shown in Figure 17 on page 12. Figure 17: Mounting Magellan on a TabletopTabletop 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 (MG-6160 only)If the radio’s reception is not very good, connect the supplied radio antenna to the ANT terminal on the back of the Magellan console as shown in Figure 18 on page 12. Move the antenna around until the spot with the best reception is found.Figure 18: Connecting the Radio AntennaTabletopPlastic feet (x2)Rubber stops (x2)Wall plateRadio AntennaBack view of the Magellan console.

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 explained on page 38.Please refer to WinLoad’s Online Help for more information on using WinLoad.Programming Using the Built-in KeypadUse the built-in keypad to access Magellan’s programming mode. Use the supplied Magellan Programming Guide to keep track of which sections were programmed and how. To access programming mode:1. Press and hold the [0] key.2. Enter your [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.Single Digit Data Entry MethodAfter 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 in a section, Magellan will automatically save and advance to the next section. Table 1 (see below) shows the keys and their equivalent decimal and/or hexadecimal value.Table 1: Decimal and Hexadecimal Values* CK = Center keypadFeature Select Programming MethodAfter entering certain sections, eight options will be displayed whereby each option from [1] to [8] represents a specific feature or option. To manipulate the options: • Press the key corresponding to the desired option and the option number will appear in the LCD display. This means the option is ON. Press the key again to remove the digit from the LCD display, thereby, turning OFF the option. • Press the [*] key to set all eight options to OFF. Press the keys until the current section’s options are set. When the options are set, press the [#] key to save and advance to the next section.• Press the [*] key twice to exit without changing any data.Programming Using a Paradox Memory KeyThe 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 ConsoleTo 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 13 on page 11).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 ConsoleTo 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 13 on page 11).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 is 111111. In order to download the contents of memory key B into the Magellan console C, the Installer code programmed in console C must also be 111111.Key Value Key Value[1] 1[9] 9[2] 2[0] 0 (decimal)Space (Hexadecimal)[3] 3[1] CK*A (Hexadecimal only)[4] 4[2] CK*B (Hexadecimal only)[5] 5[3] CK*C (Hexadecimal only)[6] 6[4] CK*D (Hexadecimal only)[7] 7[5] CK*E (Hexadecimal only)[8] 8[6] CK*F (Hexadecimal only)
14  Reference & Installation ManualUser CodesA 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 LengthSection [090]: Option [1]Option [1] OFF = 6-digit User codesOption [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 CodeSection [181]; Default = 000000The Installer code is used to enter the console's programming mode (see Programming Using the Built-in Keypad on page 13), 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 14) where each digit can be any value from 0 to 9. The Installer code cannot be used to program any User code.

Paradox Magellan Systems   15Zone ProgrammingMagellan supports up to 32 wireless zones whereby 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 OverviewAfter 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 19 on page 15.Figure 19: Magellan Zone Programming OverviewZone DefinitionsSections [001] to [032] represent zones 1 through 32 respectively, whereby 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 1Sections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32, 3-digit # = 001When 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 another entry point.Entry Delay 1 TimerSection [060]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default = 45 secondsEnter the desired 3-digit delay value from 000 to 255 seconds into section [060] to program the Entry Delay 1 Timer.Entry Delay 2Sections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32, 3-digit # = 002Entry Delay 2 zones are identical to the Entry Delay 1 zones (see Entry Delay 1 on page 15), except it uses a separate Entry Delay Timer.Entry Delay 2 TimerSection [061]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default = 45 secondsEnter the desired 3-digit delay value from 000 to 255 seconds into section [061] to program the Entry Delay 2 Timer.Follow ZonesSections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32, 3-digit # = 003When 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.Press and hold the [0] keyEnter your [INSTALLER CODE] or [MAINTENANCE CODE]Enter 3-digit [SECTION][001] = Zone 1[002] = Zone 2[003] = Zone 3[004] = Zone 4[005] = Zone 5[006] = Zone 6[007] = Zone 7[008] = Zone 8[009] = Zone 9[010] = Zone 10[011] = Zone 11[012] = Zone 12[013] = Zone 13[014] = Zone 14[015] = Zone 15[016] = Zone 16[017] = Zone 17[018] = Zone 18[019] = Zone 19[020] = Zone 20[021] = Zone 21[022] = Zone 22[023] = Zone 23[024] = Zone 24[025] = Zone 25[026] = Zone 26[027] = Zone 27[028] = Zone 28[029] = Zone 29[030] = Zone 30[031] = Zone 31[032] = Zone 32Zone Definition000 = Zone disabled001 = Entry Delay 1002 = Entry Delay 2003 = Follow004 = Follow / Stay005 = Instant006 = Instant / Stay007 = Instant Fire008 = Delayed Fire Zone009 = 24Hr.

Instant zones are commonly used for windows, patio doors, skylights and other perimeter type zones.Instant/Stay ZonesSections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32, 3-digit # = 006Instant/Stay zones function as follows:• All zones defined as Instant/Stay zones become Instant zones (refer to Instant Zones on page 16) 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 ZonesSections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32, 3-digit # = 007Whenever 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 [131] to [138]. • Alarms are always audible regardless of other settings. Fire alarms generate an intermittent (pulsed) bell/siren output signal as shown in Figure 20 on page 16.Figure 20: Bell/Siren Output during a Fire AlarmDelayed Fire ZonesSections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32, 3-digit # = 008When a Delayed 24Hr. Fire zone opens, whether it is armed or disarmed, the console will react as shown in Figure 21 on page 16. Delayed 24Hr. Fire zones are commonly used in residential homes where a smoke detector often generates false alarms (i.e., burning bread, etc.).This feature is not for use in UL installations.Figure 21: Delayed Fire Zone24Hr. Burglary ZonesSections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32, 3-digit # = 009Whenever a 24Hr.

After entering the 3-digit Zone Definition (see Zone Definitions on page 15), select one or more of the following Zone Options by using the Feature Select Programming Method (see page 13).Auto-zone ShutdownSections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32; Option [1]Option [1] OFF = Auto-zone Shutdown disabledOption [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 CounterSection [067]: 001 to 015 alarms; 000 = Disabled; Default = 5 alarmsEnter the desired limit into section [067] to program the Auto-zone Shutdown Counter.Bypass OptionSection [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32; Option [2]Option [2] OFF = Bypass option disabledOption [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 TypesSections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32; Options [4] and [5]When an alarm condition occurs, the console can be programmed to react as shown in Table 2 on page 17.Table 2: Alarm Type OptionsThe Alarm Type options cannot be programmed for Fire zones. Fire zones are automatically programmed with an audible pulsed alarm. This cannot be altered.IntellizoneSections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32; option [6]Option [6] OFF = Intellizone disabled (default)Option [6] ON = Intellizone enabledThis 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: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 27) and provides a steady output for the on-board siren.OFF ON Audible pulsed alarmWhen the conditions for an alarm have been met, Magellan can transmit the appropriate Zone Alarm report code (see page 27) and provides a pulsed output (see Figure 20 on page 16) for the on-board siren.ON OFF Silent alarmWhen the conditions for an alarm are met, the control panel can transmit the appropriate Zone Alarm report code (see page 27) 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 onlyWhen the conditions for an alarm have been met, the control panel can transmit the appropriate Zone Alarm report code (see page 27). The system will not have to be disarmed.
18  Reference & Installation Manual• 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.This feature is not for use in UL installations.Intellizone Delay TimerSection [065]: 010 to 255 seconds; Default = 45 secondsEnter the desired 3-digit value into section [065] to program the Intellizone Delay Timer.Delay Before Alarm Report Code TransmissionSections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32; option [7]Option [7] OFF = Delay alarm transmission disabled (default)Option [7] ON = Delay alarm transmission enabledThis 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 monitoring station until the end of the Alarm Transmission Delay. • During this period, disarming the system disables the bell/siren output and cancels the report code transmission. This feature is not for use in UL installations.Alarm Transmission DelaySection [075]: 001 to 255 seconds; 000 = Disabled; Default = 0 secondsEnter the desired 3-digit delay value into section [075] to program the Alarm Transmission Delay.Force ZonesSections [001] to [032]: Zones 1 to 32; Option [8]Option [8] OFF = Force zone disabledOption [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.This feature is not for use in UL installations.Stay Delay ZonesSection [094]: Options [1]Option [1] OFF = Stay Delay zone disabled (default)Option [1] ON = Stay Delay zone enabledWhen a Follow/Stay or Instant/Stay zone is armed using the Stay or Instant arming methods, with this option enabled and the zone is triggered, an alarm will not generate until the programmed Stay Delay elapses. A zone defined as Stay Delay follows the Entry Delay 1 Timer. To program the Entry Delay Timers, refer to Entry Delay 1 on page 15. This feature is not for use in UL installations.Zones 31 and 32 Become Hardwire ZonesSection [095]: Options [1] and [2]Option [1] OFF = Wireless zone 31 remains unchanged (default)Option [1] ON = Wireless zone 31 uses the on-board hardwire zone input 1Option [2] OFF = Wireless zone 32 remains unchanged (default)Option [2] ON = Wireless zone 32 uses the on-board hardwire zone input 2The 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 31 and 32 from wireless to hardwire by allowing you to connect hardwire detection devices (i.e., door contacts) to zone inputs 1 and 2.• With section [095] option [1] ON, zone 31 is connected to zone input 1. • With section [095] option [2] ON, zone 32 is connected to zone input 2.EOL (End-Of-Line) ZonesSection [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 resistorsThis feature only applies to Magellan’s on-board zone inputs. Section [095] options [1] and/or [2] (see Zones 31 and 32 Become Hardwire Zones on page 18) 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 9.When hardwired zones are used, the EOL Resistor Option must be enabled for UL installations.Wireless ProgrammingThe Magellan system supports up to 32 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.

38  Reference & Installation ManualWinLoad Software SettingsPanel Answer OptionsThe following two options define how Magellan answers an incoming call from a computer using the WinLoad Installer Upload/Download Software.Answering Machine OverrideSection [074]: 010 to 255 seconds; 000 = disabled; Default = disabledWhen 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 RingsSection [072]: 001 to 015 rings; 000 = disabled; Default = 008This 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 IdentifierSection [108]: 4-digit Hexadecimal number from 0000 to FFFFThis 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 PasswordSection [109]: 4-digit Hexadecimal number from 0000 to FFFFThis 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 NumberSection [115]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 7 on page 29) up to a maximum of 32 digits.Call Back FeatureSection [098]: Option [4]Option [4] OFF = Call Back Feature disabled (default)Option [4] ON = Call Back Feature enabledThe Call Back feature provides additional security. When section [098] option [4] in ON and a computer using WinLoad attempts to communicate with Magellan, the console hangs up and calls the computer back to re-verify identification codes and re-establish communication. When Magellan hangs up, WinLoad automatically goes into Wait for Call mode, ready to answer when the console calls back. The PC Telephone number must be programmed (see PC Telephone Number on page 38).

Except as specifically stated herein, all express or implied warranties whatsoever, statutory or otherwise, including without limitation, any implied warranty of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are expressly excluded. Because Seller does not install or connect the products and because the products may be used in conjunction with products not manufactured by Seller, Seller cannot guarantee the performance of the security system and shall not be responsible for circumstances resulting from the product’s inability to operate. Seller obligation and liability under this warranty is expressly limited to repairing or replacing, at Seller's option, any product not meeting the specifications. Returns must include proof of purchase and be within the warranty period. In no event shall the Seller be liable to the buyer or any other person for any loss or damages whether direct or indirect or consequential or incidental, including without limitation, any damages for lost profits stolen goods, or claims by any other party, caused by defective goods or otherwise arising from the improper, incorrect or otherwise faulty installation or use of the merchandise sold. Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, the Seller’s maximum liability will be strictly limited to the purchase price of the defective product. Your use of this product signifies your acceptance of this warranty.BEWARE: Dealers, installers and/or others selling the product are not authorized to modify this warranty or make additional warranties that are binding on the Seller.© 2006 Paradox Security Systems Ltd. All rights reserved.Magellan is a trademark or registered trademark of Paradox Security Systems Ltd. or its affiliates in Canada, the United States and/or other countries. Windows® is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. Specifications may change without prior notice.FCC WARNINGSIMPORTANT INFORMATIONThis 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.NOTIFICATION TO TELEPHONE COMPANYUpon request, customer shall notify telephone company of particular line to which the connection will be made, and provide the FCC registration number and the ringer equivalence of the protective circuit.FCC REGISTRATION NUMBER:5A7AL01BMG-61606130RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER:0.1B (U.S. & Canada)USOC JACK:RJ31X (USA), CA31A (CANADA)TELEPHONE CONNECTION REQUIREMENTSExcept 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 HARMShould 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 FACILITIESThe 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.GENERALThis 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.EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE FACILITYIf you experience trouble with this telephone equipment, please contact facility indicated below for information on obtaining service or repairs. The telephone company may ask that you disconnect this equipment from network until problem is corrected or until you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.FCC PART 15, WARNINGSINFORMATION TO USERThis equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B digital devices, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy, and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to equipment intermittently, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: (1) re orient or relocate the receiving antenna; (2) increase the separation between the equipment and receiver; (3) connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit other than the one to which the receiver is connected, or (4) consult the dealer or an experienced radio/tv technician for assistance. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.CAUTION: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by PARADOX SECURITY SYSTEMS could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.UL WARNINGSIMPORTANT INFORMATIONThis equipment should be installed in accordance with Chapter 11 of the National Fire Alarm Code, ANSI/NFPA 72, (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269).Each console is intended to be checked by a technician at least once every three years.LIMITATIONS OF ALARM SYSTEMSIt must be understood that while your Paradox alarm system is highly advanced and secure, it does not offer any guaranteed protection against burglary, fire or other emergency (fire and emergency options are only available on certain Paradox models). This is due to a number of reasons, including by not limited to inadequate or improper installation/positioning, sensor limitations, battery performance, wireless signal interruption, inadequate maintenance or the potential for the system or telephone lines to be compromised or circumvented. As a result, Paradox does not represent that the alarm system will prevent personal injury 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 maintain your security systems and stay aware of new and improved Paradox products and developments.WARNINGS 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.
