INTRODUCTIONThe PARAKEY is a wireless remote control system thatconsists of a receiving module and up to eight 2 or 4-buttonremote controls (transmitters). When used in conjunctionwith any Paradox Esprit Series Control Panel, remotecontrols can perform actions such as remote arming anddisarming, communicating panic alarms and/or activatingprogrammable outputs (PGMs). Each remote control isassigned to a specific user and therefore, identifies the userto the control panel when used. If desired, it can be used asa stand-alone system where the remote controls will onlyactivate the on-board PGM outputs. When a button on theremote control is pressed, it will transmit an RF signal.When the PARAKEY receives this signal, it then processesthe request and performs the programmed action(s).• Simple, user-friendly programming.• Supports 8 User Codes, each linked to a unique RFCode (2 or 4-button remote control).• Encrypted RF codes for additional security. Does notuse DIP switch programming.• 4 programmable outputs (PGMs). • Stand-alone operation (trigger PGMs only) or inconjunction with a Paradox Esprit Series Control Panel(arm/disarm, panic & PGM activation).• Programming keypad connects directly to the ParakeyReceiving Module.• Programmable Installer Code.• Software reset.1.2.1 Receiver:Compatible Programming Keypads: (616 V4.2A & up)(626 V4.1A & up)DC input: 12VDCPGM outputs: 4PGM Output 1-3 Current Rating: 30mA max.PGM Output 4 Current Rating: 5A relayMax Transmission Range: 53.34m (175 ft.)Operating Conditions: 0°C to 50°COperating Humidity: 85%Operating Frequency: 318 or 433.92MHzSensitivity: -110dbm1.2.2 Remote Control:Water ResistantBattery:Lithium 3V (CR2032)Battery Life: Apprx. 2 yearsPower Transmission: 7mWCurrent Consumption:6mA (transmission)1.2 Technical Specifications1.1 Features2 3
INSTALLATIONWe recommend installing the receiver in a centralizedlocation on the main floor. Avoid installing the receiver inthe basement. Although, if desired, it can be installed inproximity of the control panel. When selecting aninstallation site please take into consideration that themaximum reception distance of the receiver isapproximately 54 meters (175 feet) line of sight. The circuitis static sensitive, thus take great care during handling.Avoid installing the receiving module near or inthe path of strong RF fields, such as neon lightsor computers. Also avoid installing the receiveron or near metal objects, circuit breaker boxes,air conditioners and heater ducts. These devicesmay cause interference, reducing the receiver'ssensitivity.If installing the Parakey away from the control panel, mountthe Parakey Receiver Module on a wall, leaving at least 2"around the panel box to permit adequate ventilation/heatdissipation. Selecting a site that is not susceptible todrastic changes in temperature and humidity.2.2.1 With Esprit Control PanelWhen used in conjunction with any Paradox Esprit SeriesControl Panel, the auxiliary terminals (12VDC) of thecontrol panel may power the Parakey Receiving Moduleas shown in figure 3. If using an external power sourceplease ensure that the "GND" of the receiver and thepower source are connected to the "AUX-" terminal of thecontrol panel.The "GRN" and "YEL" terminals of the control panel mustbe connected to the "GRN" and "YEL" terminals of theParakey Receiving Module in order to providecommunication between the modules. Alternatively, youcan use a 4-pin serial connector between the controlpanel's "SERVICE KEYPAD" connector and the ParakeyModule's "PANEL" connector.2.2.2 Stand AloneWhen used as a stand-alone system, you will need aParadox 12VDC 801 Power Supplyand a 12VDC backupbattery. Connect the power supply and the backupbattery as shown in figure 4.The Parakey Receiving Module is programmed using a616 or 626 Esprit LED Keypad. Connect the keypad asshown in figure 3 or 4. Alternatively, you can connect thekeypad to the Parakey Module's "PROGRAM" connectorusing a 4-pin serial connector.The Parakey can only be programmed using:616 keypad version 4.2A and up or 626 keypad version 4.1A and up. 2.3 Keypad2.2 Power & Communication2.1 Location & Mounting4 5
Firmly screw the vertical and horizontal antennas to thecorresponding "ANT" connections on the ReceivingModule as shown in figure 3 or 4. Use of the horizontalantenna is optional, but is recommended for best results.Do not cut, bend or alter the antenna in any way, asthis may reduce the receiver's sensitivity (range).The Parakey provides four programmable outputs (OUT1 toOUT4) each of which can be programmed for a variety ofhome/office automation applications, such as opening agarage door when button 1 is pressed on the remote control.Please refer to figure 1 and section 4 for more information.There are two types of hand-held PARAKEY remotecontrols. There is a 2-button RF transmitter and a 4-button RF transmitter. Each button can perform differentactions depending on how the system is programmed.These remote controls can transmit a signal up to amaximum of 54 meters (175ft). The remote controls arepowered by a 3V lithium battery. Occasionally this batterymust be changed as shown in figure 2. References tobutton 3 and button 4 indicate keys on the 4-buttonremote control only.2.6 Hand-Held Remote Control2.5 Programmable Outputs (PGMs)2.4 Antenna6 7
Performing a system reset will set the Parakey to defaultsettings. Please note that if connected to a control panel,the reset sequence of the Parakey will not cause thecontrol panel to reset and vice versa. To execute asystem reset perform the following:1) Remove the power connections ("+12" & "GND") fromthe receiver.2) Press and hold the “PROG” button and re-connect thepower connections to the receiver.3) Wait approximately 2 seconds and release the “PROG“button. The red LED will flash for 15 seconds, thekeypad will beep, and all system settings will be resetto factory default.2.7 System Reset8 9

4.3.1 User Access CodesSections [01] to [08] - Access Code ProgrammingWhen a user presses a button, the Parakey determineswhich user the remote control belongs to and transmits thecorresponding User Access Code to the control panel. Toarm/disarm the system, the Paradox Esprit Series ControlPanelmust receive a valid access code. Therefore, theprogrammed User Access Code must be the same as aUser Access Code programmed in the Paradox EspritSeries Control Panel. If no access code is programmed,only the programmed PGMs will be activated. The UserAccess Codes can be 4 or 6 digits in length (see section 4.1)with each digit being any value from 0 to 9. Program theUser Access Code into the section corresponding to thedesired user, where sections [01] to [08] represent users 1through 8 respectively (figure 5).The User Access Code programmed in theParakey must be the same as a User AccessCode programmed in the Paradox Esprit SeriesControl Panel. 4.3.2 Remote Control AssignmentSections [09] to [16] - RF ProgrammingEvery time a button is pressed on the remote control, ittransmits its RF code to the Parakey, identifying it as a userin the system. Therefore, each remote control in thesystem must be assigned to a user. After entering thesection corresponding to the desired user (see figure 5),press the [ENTER] key and the “READY” and “ARM” lights willilluminate. Then press button 1 on the remote control once,the Parakey will beep once. Press button 1 again forconfirmation, the Parakey will beep twice to indicate thatthe remote control was successfully assigned.
