     1== Hardware Installation  ==

     3The following section assumes you have a working Paradox Alarm Panel and have successfully connected, and configured, the Paradox Security PTR3 Printer Module.  
     4 
     5Each of these devices comes with instructions for wiring and basic configuration. If you are not comfortable with this type of Wiring and configuration then contact your Alarm installer ''before'' proceeding.  
     6 
     7Notes  
     8 
     9  * Configure the PTR3 Module Baud Rate 
     10 
     11  In Paradox EVO Alarm Panels this is Section `[016]` and in Spectra Alarm Panels this is Section `[553]` of the Alarm Panel configuration.  The Baud Settings should be configured to `57600` Baud by setting both Options `[2] & [3]` to `[ON]`.  You can use a lower Baud rate, but it will slow the communications between Vera and the Alarm Panel. 
     12 
     13  * Configure the PTR3 Module for Home Automation 
     14 
     15  In Paradox EVO Alarm Panels, this is Section `[016]`, Option `[4]`. It should be set to `[ON]` 
     16 
     17  * Set any Zone Labels '''after''' you connect the PRT3 Module to the Combus 
     18 
     19  Only Zone Labels changed/modified ''after'' PRT3 is attached will be correctly recorded in the PRT3 Module. If you set the Zone Labels prior to connecting the PRT3, it'll only list "Default" Labels for each Zone. The Vera-Luup Alarm interface code will skip over these as if they're ''unused'' Zones. Please use the Alarm Panel's Reference and Installation manuals to determine how to setup your Zone Labels. 
     20  If you've attached the PRT3 Module to an existing Alarm Panel, you can simply re-enter the Zone Labels to "trigger" it to get a copy of them. 
     21 
     22  * Attach Vera to the Paradox PRT3 Module using a USB Cable 
     23  After attaching Vera to the Paradox PRT3 Module, navigate to the following pane in Vera: 
     24    ''Toolbox'' >> ''MiOS Developers'' >> ''Serial Port configuration'' 
     25  which should show settings similar to these [[Image(ParadoxAlarm-VeraSerialConfig-UI4.png, align=right, 30%)]]  You can now change the Baud rate to `57600`, matching the Alarm Panel, and press '''(Save)'''.
