Paradox APR3 ZX8 Expansion Module Modules Programming Guide

The APR3 ZX8 is an 8-zone expansion module that can be used to add additional zones to your Paradox security system. It can be used to connect security devices such as door/window contacts, motion detectors, and smoke detectors. This enables you to expand the security coverage of your home or business. The module can be configured to activate a programmable output, or PGM, when a specific event occurs. This allows you to integrate other devices, such as lights or sirens, with your security system.

Frequently asked questions

The "Tamper Recognition" option allows you to configure Input 8 (Z8) as a tamper input. This means that if the module is physically tampered with, an alarm will be triggered.

The "PGM Deactivation After" option allows you to choose whether the PGM should deactivate after a specific event occurs or after a set period of time.

The "PGM Timer" allows you to configure the duration for which the PGM will remain active after being triggered. This can be configured in multiples of 15ms, 1 second, or 1 minute, and can be adjusted by using the [ENTER] button.

The PGM can be programmed using Event Groups and Feature Groups, which define the specific events that will trigger the PGM. The Event Group specifies the event that will activate the PGM, while the Feature Group identifies the source of the event. Refer to Appendix 1 on page 39 for detailed programming instructions.

The "Test PGM" function activates the PGM for 8 seconds, allowing you to verify that it is working correctly.

Utility Keys are used to generate Utility Key Events. These events can be triggered through a variety of actions, including pressing specific key combinations on the keypad, using keyswitch inputs, or by configuring remote control buttons. These events can then be used to trigger certain actions within the system, such as activating specific features or generating reports.
