1. INTRODUCTION
The KNX interface module EVO-KNX is a KNX gateway for the Paradox EVO alarm systems. It enables
bidirectional communication with the alarm system using the RS232 communication module (PRT3)
from Paradox.
It allows integrators to take advantage of a fully integrated alarm system including KNX scenarios,
automatic lighting using the motion detectors, arming or monitoring the system using a KNX
visualization.
Main features:
•

By default, zone status is configured for zone 1 to 96 of the alarm system. A general parameter allows
to change for zone 97 to 192. Having then the possibility to use two gateways in the same installation to
cover the 192 zones of the alarm system.
In the same way, areas are configured for areas 1 to 4 of the alarm system but a parameter allows to
change the area number to cover the areas 5 to 8 if required.
