Paradox Security Systems has once-again redefined
the boundaries of the security industry and is proud
to introduce the Digiplex Control Panel. A new
generation in control panel technology, the Digiplex
Control Panel uses a quad-wire communication bus
(
DIGI
-
BUS
) which provides power and two-way
communication with up to 95 modules (keypads,
motion detectors, expander modules, etc.). This
combined with 4 true partitions, event call direction
and the zone numbering feature, simplifies the task
of installing or making changes to your security
system. The innovative new programming method
makes programming the control panel logical and
much simpler to execute. This new generation of
control panels offers increased capabilities with
countless new features without compromising its
user-friendliness. If anything, these new control
panels are easier to use and easier to install,
making the Digiplex Control Panel the ultimate in
reliable security protection.

Most features and options in the Digiplex
System can be independently set for each
partition such as event reporting, entry/exit
delay, bell squawk, quick arming, panics and
many more. All zones, keyswitches, user codes
and keypads are assigned to specific partitions,
making this a true partitioned system.
