TB61_PC-
100 for AxiomV™
Paradox Alarm Panel Interface
This interface is designed to work with Digiplex EVO48 and EVO192 Alarm
panels manufactured by Paradox Security Systems. The protocol used for this
interface is the ASCII protocol designed for home automation. In order to use the
protocol an APR-PRT3 module must be installed and programmed into the alarm
panel.
The PC100 is used as a bridge between the Axiom Access Control System and
the APR-PRT3 interface for the Paradox alarm panel. To achieve this
functionality the PC100 emulates eight Safesuite
™ keypads and up to eight
sequentially addressed IOC‟s.

Whenever a partition is armed or disarmed by the Paradox system the
corresponding Safesuite
™ keypad will display the status. For example if keypad
number 102 reports that it is disarmed it really means that Partition 2 has been
disarmed.
For a Simple Set-up
The Safesuite™ keypads have 8 zones assigned to each keypad. Whenever an
alarm message is sent from the alarm panel it gets translated into two messages:
1. A keypad alarm message.
2. An IOC-16 input change message.
The keypad zone alarm message doesn‟t accurately reflect the actual input
address but instead translates the zone number into a modulo
–8 value. See
table below.
