Installation
IP180
The IP180 should be installed in the panel metal box enclosure to be tamper-protected. Clip the IP180 to the top of the metal box, as shown in
Figure 3.
Serial to the Panel
Connect the serial output of the IP180 to the Serial port of the Paradox panels. If it is P Series, connect it to Serial1 as it is the main
reporting channel, as shown in Figure 2. If the panel is powered up, the on-board LEDs will illuminate to indicate the
IP180’s status.
Ethernet
If you are using an Ethernet cable connection, connect it to an active Ethernet socket and the left side of the IP180, as shown in
Figure 2. If you are using a Wi-Fi connection as well, you can configure the Wi-Fi via the application once ethernet is connected and the
internet is available.
Wi-Fi
The Antenna kit is sold separately. To use wifi, drill a
¼” hole on top or side of the metal box, pass the antenna extension wire through the hole and
secure the socket to the metal box. Secure the Wi-Fi antenna to the plug and connect the other side of the cable gently to the IP180; it uses a
“push and click” mechanism, as shown in Figure 4.
Note
: The Wi-Fi antenna is installed on the
outside
of the metal box and not inside the metal box. The antenna is not included and should be
purchased separately from the distributor. To register into the Wi-Fi network without ethernet please open BlueEye.
