Hardwire Zone Connections
Magellan comes with two on-board hardwire zones. You can
connect hardwire detection devices such as door contacts to
Magellan’s zone terminals. Connect the detection devices as
shown in Figure 6 on page 10. Please note the following:
• Only zones 15 and 16 can be programmed as hardwire
zones 1 and 2.
• Section [095] options [1] and [2] must be enabled in order to
use the two on-board hardwire zones. See Zones 15 and 16
become Hardwire Zones on page 18 for more information.
• After connecting the detection devices, the zones must be
defined. See Zone Programming on page 15 for more
information.
• The hardwire zones follow the console’s EOL and tamper
definitions.
Though any hardwire detection device can be connected to
Magellan’s on-board hardwire zone inputs, it is recommended
that only devices that do not require a power source (i.e.
standard door contacts) be connected. Since Magellan has no
power supply, an external power supply would have to be
connected in order to power hardwire detection devices that do
require a power source.

X10 Transmitter Connection
Magellan supports the X10 communication protocol. X10 is a
communication protocol for remote control of electrical devices
such as lamps and appliances. Communication is accomplished
through standard household electrical wiring using X10
transmitters and receivers. Configure Magellan, with the use of
an X10 transmitter, to automate a home. Connect the X10
transmitter as shown in Figure 7 on page 10.
Refer to the Magellan X10 Instructions on our website,
www.paradox.ca, for information on using and
configuring Magellan’s X10 feature.

Connecting a Paradox Memory Key (PMC-3)
When using a Paradox Memory Key with a Magellan console,
remove power (both AC and battery power), connect the memory
key to the 5-pin connector on the back of the Magellan console
as shown in Figure 8 on page 10. Once connected, re-apply
power to the console. For more information, see Programming
Using a Paradox Memory Key on page 13.
