Figure 4 - DHCP Settings
If DHCP is enabled
, verify that the IP address range leaves at least one IP address available outside of
the range. The range shown in the above example would leave addresses 2 to 4 and 101 to 254 available
(all the numbers in an IP address are between 1 and 254). Record one of the addresses outside the
DHCP range as the one you will use for the IP150.
If DHCP is disabled
, the IP150 will use the default
address of 192.168.1.250. It is possible to change that address if needed using the Paradox IP Exploring
Tools software.
4) In the router’s configuration page, go to the Port Range Forwarding section (also known as “port
mapping” or “port redirection”).
Add a service/item, set the Port to 80 and enter the static IP address
selected in the previous step for the IP module. If port 80 is already used, you can use another one,
such as 81 or 82 but you will have to modify the IP150’s settings in step 2. Some Internet Service
Providers block port 80, therefore the IP150 may function locally using port 80 but not over the
Internet. If this is the case, change the port to another number. Repeat this step for port 10 000
(screenshot below may differ depending on type of router used). Also, repeat this step for port 443 if
using a secure connection (https).

Step 2: Configuring the IP150
1) Using a computer connected to the same network as the IP150, open the Paradox IP Exploring Tools.
2) Click
Find It
. Your IP150 appears in the list.
Figure 6 - IP Exploring Tools
3) Right-click your IP150 and select
Module setup
, refer to screen shot below. Enter the static IP
address you recorded in Step 1.3 or modify the address so that it corresponds to the one you have
selected for the IP150. Enter the IP150’s password (default: paradox) and click
OK
. If it indicates that
the IP address is already used, change it to another and modify it in the Port Forwarding of the router
(Step 1.4) and go back to Step 2.1.
4) Set any additional information such as port, subnet mask, etc. To find this information, click
Start >
Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt
. Enter command: IPCONFIG /ALL (with space after
IPCONFIG).
NOTE
: For increased communication security, please change the default PC password and Panel ID in
the control panel. Also, note that the IP150 supports SMTP/ESMTP/SSL/TLS protocols.

Step 3: Using a Web Browser to Access the System
Once the module is configured, it can be accessed either from the local network or through the internet
using the alarm system’s master code.
On-Site Access:
1) Enter the IP address assigned to the IP150 in the address bar of your Web browser. If you have used
a port other than port 80, you must add [: port number] at the end. (For example, if the port used is 81,
the IP address entered should look like this: http://192.168.1.250:81). For a secure connection, make
sure to write “https://...etc.”.
or
Use the Paradox IP Exploring Tools software, click
Refresh
and double-click on your
IP150
in the list.
2) Enter your alarm system’s
User Code
.
