IP150 Internet Module 

Installation Manual V1.3 - IP150-EI01
Printed in Canada 08/2013

Description

The IP150 Internet Module is an HTTPs-supported IP communication device that enables you to 
control and monitor your security system through any web browser (e.g., Google Chrome). The 
IP150 provides freedom to access your system and receive instant, SSL encrypted email notifica-
tions anywhere in the world when your system detects activity. So no matter where you are, you 
will have access to arm, 
disarm, and more. 

Before You Begin

Before you begin, make sure that you have web-enabled computer. You will also require the fol-
lowing system requirements in order to configure to your IP150 Internet Module. System require-
ments include:

Ethernet-compatible computer with internet access (required for remote access)

Router

4-pin serial cable (included)

CAT-5 Ethernet cable (maximum 90m (295 ft.), not included)

Paradox IP Exploring Tools Software (required for remote access). 

Software can be downloaded 

from our website (www.paradox.com/GSM/IP/Voice/IP).

Metal Box Installation

To connect and install the IP150:

1)

Connect the 4-pin serial cable between the panel’s serial connector and the IP150’s panel con-

nector (see 

Right Side View

 in Figure 2).

2)

Connect the Ethernet cable between the router and the IP150’s network connector (see

 Left 

Side View 

in Figure 2).

3)

The onboard LEDs will illuminate to indicate the IP150’s status (see 

Front View i

n Figure 2).

4)

Clip the IP150 to the top of the metal box 

(see

 Metal Box Installation 

in Figure 2).

LED Indicators

Reset IP150 to Default

To reset the IP150 module to its default settings, insert a pin/straightened paper clip (or similar) 
into the pin hole located between the two I/O LEDs. Press down gently until you feel some 
resistance; hold it down for approximately 5 seconds, release it when the I/O and RX/TX LEDs start 
flashing, and then press it again. The I/O and RX/TX LEDs will remain lit during the reset.

IP Reporting

When using IP reporting, the IP150 has the ability to poll the monitoring station. To enable IP 
reporting, the IP150 must first be registered to the monitoring station’s IP Receiver (IPR512). Tele-
phone reporting can be used in conjunction with, or as a backup to IP reporting. Before registering 
the IP150, the following information must be obtained from the monitoring station:

Account number(s) - One account number for each partition used. IP/GPRS reporting uses a 

different set of account numbers than those used for dialer reporting. 

IP address(es) - (12-digit number e.g., for 195.4.8.250 you must enter 195.004.008.250)

The IP address(es) indicate(s) which of the monitoring station’s IP Receivers will be used for IP 
reporting.

IP port(s) (5-digit number; for 4-digit numbers, enter 0 before the first digit). The IP port refers 
to the port used by the monitoring station’s IP Receiver.

Receiver password(s) (up to 32-digits)

The receiver password is used to encrypt the IP150 registration process.

Security profile(s) (2-digit number). The security profile indicates how frequently the monitoring 
station is polled by the IP150. Security profile numbers and polling frequency are defined by the 
monitoring station.

Setting Up IP Reporting

1)

Ensure that the panel’s report code format is set to Ademco Contact ID:
MG/SP/E: section [810]
EVO: section [3070]

2)

Enter the IP reporting account numbers (one for each partition):
MG/SP/E: section [918] / [919]
EVO: section [2976] to [2983]

3)

In the General IP Options section, set up IP line monitoring options and dialer options, and 
ensure IP reporting is enabled (see the following tables).

4)

Enter the monitoring station’s IP address(es), IP port(s), receiver password(s), and security 
profile(s) (information must be obtained from the monitoring station).

5)

Register the IP150 module with the monitoring station. To register, enter the sections below 
and press [

ARM

]. The registration status is displayed as well as any registration errors.

NOTE: An IP150 used with an MG/SP/E system will always poll using the partition 1 IP account 
number. When using an EVO system, the partition 1 IP account is used by default, but can be 
defined in section [3020]. All reported system events will originate from the partition selected in 
this section.

Remote Access

The IP150 provides remote access to control and monitor a security system via web browsers or 
PC 
software. This provides the user with the freedom to access the system from anywhere in the 
world. The following steps will guide you in setting up remote access.

Step 1: Setting up the Router

This step allows you to set up the router so that the IP150 module can function properly. 

1)

Ensure that the router is connected properly as indicated in the router’s instructions.

2)

Access your router’s configuration page. Refer to your router’s manual for the exact procedure. 

In most cases, this is done by entering the router’s static IP address in the address bar of your 

Web browser. For this instance, we will use 192.168.1.1 as an example.Your router’s IP address
