Paradox
PARADOX® EVO48 and EVO192 are advanced, multi-area security systems integrated with a variety of wired and wireless sensors. The EVO48 supports up to 48 zones in 4 areas (partitions), while the EVO192 supports 192 zones in 8 areas. Both units support programmable outputs (PGM) and virtual inputs. The Paradox EVO driver in HSYCO supports the integration of more than one EVO unit within the same HSYCO interface. The integration with HSYCO can be accomplished via direct control through the RS-232 port on the PRT3 Integration Module.
Communication
Employ a DE-9 (often called DB-9) male-female RS-232 straight cable to connect the PRT3 to the serial port on HSYCO SERVER.
RS-232 parameters:
| Baud rate | same as defined on the PRT3 (default 9600) |
| Data bits | 8 |
| Stop bit | 1 |
| Parity | no parity |
| Flow control | none |
Using the software Winload (default user: Master; default password: 1234) set the PRT3 speed to the appropriate rate setting options 2 and 3 of section 016. You can use any of the speeds that the PRT3 supports. 9600 or higher is recommended. Enable serial communication and home automation protocol (Ascii protocol).
