PAI - Paradox Alarm Interface

Middleware that aims to connect to a Paradox Alarm panel, exposing the interface for monitoring and control via several technologies. With this interface it is possible to integrate Paradox panels with HomeAssistant, OpenHAB, Homebridge or other domotics system that supports MQTT, as well as several IM methods.

It supports MG/SP/EVO panels connected through a serial port, which is present in all panels (TTL 5V), or through a USB 307 module. It also supports connections using the IP150 module, both directly (firmware version <4.0), and through the SITE ID (firmware versions >4.0).

Support for Magellan, Spectra and EVO panels is very stable. If you find a bug, please report it.

For further information and detailed usage refer to the Wiki.

On Android, if you install MQTT Dash, and follow the instructions you will automatically get a panel like this: mqtt_dash

Things you need to have to be able to connect

We support two connection options: via Serial and via IP150 Module

For all connection methods

  • PC Password: 4 digit [0-9a-f] password. Can be looked up in Babyware (Right click on a panel ⇾ Properties ⇾ PC Communication (BabyWare) ⇾ PC Communication (BabyWare) ⇾ PC Password)

In case of IP150 you need additionally:

  • IP Module password: Default is paradox
For IP150 firmware > 4.0 if you connect via Paradox Cloud (SWAN)
  • SITE ID
  • Email registered in the site
