Paradox alarm with IP150 interface integration

Plugins & Plugin Development General Plugin Discussion

May need to start a new thread here somewhere. There are at least five methods of connecting to these panels:

  1. interfacing to the panel 4 wire “combus” like this:

  2. direct connection to the serial interface eg:

  3. interfacing with the serial interface using an APR3-PRT3 (as per Guest’s Vera plugin)

  4. via an IP150 and the web interface it provides at http://Paradox_IP150_IP_address/login_page.html

    PGMs are not controllable using this method, excepting the two IP150 PGMs.

  5. using a socket connection on port 10000 to access the IP150, as used by the Paradox programs “Babyware” and “Winload”

My previous comments have been referring to method 5.
