For latest manual updates, please refer to

Thank you for choosing Paradox Security Systems products. The following manual describes the connections and programming for the IP180
Internet Module. For any comments or suggestions, send an email to [email protected].
Introduction
The IP180 Internet Module provides access to Paradox systems and replaces the previous IP150 reporting devices. The IP180 has built-in
Wi-Fi, a Wi-Fi Antenna kit may be purchased separately. The IP180 reports only to the IPC10 Paradox receiver/converter, BabyWare, and
communicates with the BlueEye application. IP180 uses an encrypted supervised connection with the IPC10 PC and BlueEye, based on MQTT
technology making it stable, fast, and reliable. The IP180 is remotely upgradable from InField and the BlueEye application. The IP180 supports
all P panels and should operate with most Paradox panels produced after 2012.
THING YOU SHOULD KNOW, PLEASE READ:
While the IP180 programming is similar to the IP150, there are some differences you should know:
•
IP180 does
not support “Combo” mode, there is no serial output. A system with a combo connection cannot be upgraded to IP180
without upgrading the panel to + with two serial outputs.
•
The IP180, due to its nature, cannot support local closed networks. Paradox will offer future local solutions for closed networks.
•
For Beta testing, static IP is not supported.
•
IP180 reports in Contact ID format only to the IPC10 (make sure the panel is set to Contact ID reporting), and from IPC10 to CMS
MLR2-DG or Ademco 685.
•
IP180 Beta supports and supervises up to three IPC10 reporting receivers and upon release will support up to four receivers (IP150+
Future MQTT version supports only two receivers).
•
When IP180 is connected, only the BlueEye application will connect; Insite Gold will not connect to the IP180.
•
When connected to a + panel, it is recommended to connect the IP180 to Serial-1 (main channel) and PCS265 V8 (MQTT version) to
Serial-2. It is not possible to mix MQTT reporting devices and previous reporting devices on the same panel.
FOR BETA:
If you upgraded/installed the IP180 and wish to revert to IP150, please see the
“Reverting to Classic” section in this manual.
Programming of the IP180 can be only from a keypad and BabyWare. BlueEye can now configure emails, and upon beta completion all
programming can be made from the BlueEye app as well.
NOTE: The IPC10 can only receive CONTACT ID format. Please make sure the reporting format is set to CID.
