Paradigm
This menu is used to set the properties of Paradigm sensors. These properties define the
performance characteristics of each sensor, and are selected according to the location of the
sensor, and the type of response required from a fire, as well as the sensors resistance to false
alarms. See the section on "Sensor response settings" for details on how to choose appropriate
settings for each sensor.
The menu path is: Setup/Paradigm. The paradigm sensor setup options are provided in Table 17.

Option Description
Panel mode
Define whether the panel is to operate in standard or day/night mode. In standard mode, all
functions remain the same regardless of the time of day. In day/night mode, functions and
alarms operate differently during day and night hours.
Panel number
Each fire panel must be given a unique number 001 to 255 that is embedded in the 4-field IP
style address AAA-BBB-CCC-DDD, where:
A = domain address
B = site address
C = host address
D = panel number
The Domain address, Site address and Host address are fixed for a particular site, i.e. for all
panels in a Planner project.
The menu displays the following information:
Enter local panel number – When entering the Panel number menu the cursor will default to
the local panel number field. The IP address is entered in the same style as the date, with
digits added continuously from left to right.
Address – The 4-field “IP-style” panel address currently allocated will be displayed in this field.
New – The panel number selected in “Enter local panel number” is displayed.
Note:
When enter is pressed to save the data and any one of the 3-digit fields exceed 255, an
error message is displayed in the bottom right of the menu. The error message is cleared
once a value less than or equal to 255 is entered. Press <ESC> to cancel any changes.

Day/Night panels change to night mode each evening at a preset time. This menu sets the
changeover times for each day of the week.
