Paradox Esprit 738 Express+ Operating instructions

SOFTWARE VERSION 3.10
HEXA PROGRAMMING:
Addresses 000 to 043 and 300 to 527 are programmed using the Hexa Programming method. In this mode, you can enter
any hexa-digit from 0-F where keys [1] to [9] represent digits 1 to 9 respectively; the other keys represent hexa digits A to
F as shown in figure 1. To program using the Hexa Programming method:
1) Press [ENTER] + Installer Code (default: 737373)
2) The [ENTER]key will flash indicating you are in programming mode
3) Enter the desired 3-digit address
4) The keypad will display the 2-digit data currently saved at this address as described in figure 2
5) Enter 2-digit data; after entering data you do not need to press [ENTER], the software will automatically save the data
into the selected address
6) Return to step 2 or press [CLEAR] to exit programming mode
STREAMLINED SECTION PROGRAMMING
This is an alternate method to Hexa Programming. The addresses (000-043 and 300-527) programmed in the Hexa
Programming method are grouped into 67 sections where each section contains four addresses (i.e. section 00 =
addresses 000-003). Using this method allows you to program 8 digits (4 addresses) without having to exit and re-enter
addresses. Note, the keypad will not display the current data in the Hexa Streamlined Programming method. To program
using the Hexa Streamlined Section method:
1) Press [ENTER]+Installer code (default: 737373)+ [7]
2) The [ENTER] and [2ND] keys will flash to indicate you are in programming mode
3) Enter 2-digit section (00-67)
4) The [ENTER] key will remain on while the [2ND] key will be off
5) Enter 8-digit data to program the section
6) The keypad will "beep" to indicate that the section has been programmed, data is saved and the software has
advanced to the next section
7) Return to step 4 or press [CLEAR]to exit programming mode
INSTALLER CODE (Default 737373)
Full access to programming, except user access codes. No access to arming/disarming. Use only numeric keys from [1]
to [10]. (key [10] = 0) 1
38EPEP-05

PANEL ANSWER OPTIONS
First digit disables “Answering Machine Override” (key [2ND]or key [1]), or determines period of time between first and
second call (see table below). Second digit determines number of rings required before panel will answer. If [2ND][2ND]is
entered, panel will not answer. (Default value is [2ND] [8].)
TELEPHONE AND ACCOUNT NUMBERS
If only one central station phone number is used, program the same number for telephone number 1 and 2. If only one
account number is required, the same number must be entered for both account "A" and "B". (No Default)
[10] = the number "0" [BYP]= switch from pulse to tone while dialing
[11] = *[MEM]= pause 4 seconds
[12] = # [TRBL]= end of number

REPORTING CODES: All digits from [1] to [F] are valid. [2ND]= digit will not be reported except for contact I.D.
programmable codes. For single digit reporting enter "skip" ([2ND]) as first digit. (Default = “empty" [2ND][2ND])
If CONTACT I.D. format (all codes) is selected, addresses 300 to 527 (sections 11- 67) do not have to be programmed.
(Select Contact I.D. (all codes) - key [10] for both central station numbers at section 09 - address 038.)

FEATURE SELECT PROGRAMMING
Addresses 062 to 126 are programmed using the Feature Select Programming method. In this method, every key on the
keypad in each address represents an option or feature. Pressing a key will display it on the keypad and pressing it again
will extinguish the key. The On/Off status of each key determines the selected feature. To program using the Feature Select
Programming method:
1) Press [ENTER]+ Installer Code (Default: 737373)
2) The [ENTER] key will flash to indicate you are in programming mode
3) Enter 3-digit address (062-126)
4) After entering the address, the keypad will display the feature selection status. Turn the keys On/Off by pressing the
appropriate key until the desired options are set. Then press the [ENTER]key to accept, there will be a confirmation
"beep" indicating the options have been accepted. The [ENTER] key will flash to indicate that the software is awaiting the
next address entry
5)
Return to step 3 to continue programming or press [CLEAR]to exit programming mode
Addresses 080 to 085 for future use.

Note: Do not use the Intellizone feature and an entry delay for the same zone, otherwise an alarm may occur as a user
tries to disarm the system.
KEY ACCESS PROGRAMMING
Programs features quickly, without entering addresses or section numbers.
To activate “key access programming”, press [ENTER], followed by installer, master or user code 1. (Code required depends
on the feature you wish to access - see below.) Press the key corresponding to the desired feature.
Press [ENTER]or [CLEAR]to exit.

[8] Installer test mode (installer code only)
In installer test mode, a confirmation beep (intermittent) indicates test is "on", a "rejection" beep (long) indicates
test is "off". The bell will squawk during walk testing to indicate opened, functional zones.
[9] "Auto arming" time program (all 3 codes)
Key [9] flashes. Enter two digits (00 to 23) for hours + 2 digits (00 to 59) for minutes.
[MEM]"Panel time" and clear "trouble 8" (all 3 codes)
Key [MEM]flashes. Enter two digits (00 to 23) for hours + 2 digits (00 to 59) for minutes.
[BYP]Test report (all 3 codes)
Reporting is enabled at address 086, keys [11], [12]. Avalue must be entered at address 512, and both telephone
and account numbers must be programmed.
