Olarm Paradox EVO Adaptor Board

The Olarm Paradox EVO Adaptor Board (also known as Olarm EVO Adapter Board or Paradox EVO192 Adapter Board) is a dedicated interface module required to connect Olarm communicators (such as Olarm MAX, Olarm PRO 4G, Olarm PRO, or similar devices) to Paradox Digiplex EVO alarm panels, particularly the EVO192 (and some other EVO series models).

Key Details & Compatibility:

• Primary Use — Plugs directly into the panel's serial port to enable reliable communication for remote arm/disarm, real-time status monitoring, event reporting, push notifications, and full app control via the Olarm platform.
• Compatible Panels — Primarily designed for:
  • Paradox EVO192 (especially panels manufactured after March 2023 or with firmware version 7.7+; required for newer units)
  • Other Digiplex EVO series panels (e.g., EVO48, EVO96, EVOHD in some configurations—confirm exact model)
• Not Compatible With — Older Paradox panels (e.g., classic Digiplex DGP series) or non-EVO models without serial port support.
• Installation — Simple plug-and-play:
  • Plug the 4-pin side of the reversible Olarm peripheral cable into the adaptor board.
  • Insert the adaptor board into the panel's Serial port (often labeled as Com Port or PC Link).
  • Connect power (red wire to AUX+ for 12V).
  • Power up the panel and follow Olarm app setup (may require Master Code entry or location/PCID settings like 3011/3012 set to 1234 on EVO192).
• Why Needed — EVO panels use a specific serial interface that requires this adaptor for stable Olarm integration—direct connection without it often fails or is unreliable.
• Additional Notes — For EVO192 panels with firmware 7.5+, serial ports may be restricted to 3rd-party devices by default—contact your supplier for unlocking if needed. Check firmware version at location 4000. Olarm devices should be on recent firmware (e.g., 1.6+ for MAX).

This adaptor is a straightforward, essential accessory for adding smart remote features to your Paradox EVO system—widely used in professional installations.
