Spectra SP Series

Description
Spectra SP control panels (SP4000, SP5500, SP6000, SP65,
and SP7000) offer a combination of innovative features and
an advanced communication bus for a uniquely expandable
security system. Through its communication bus, all Spectra
SP panels can be expanded via wireless and hardwired
expansion modules and a variety of accessory modules.
With their in-field firmware upgrade capability, the Spectra
SP series allows installers to upgrade their system without
hassle – quickly, easily, and on-site. To further facilitate
installation, every Spectra SP panel can be configured
using easy-to-follow, menu-driven programming.
 
Spectra SP also features multipath communication; this
enables your system to communicate through multiple
channels, including telephony with its built-in landline
dialer, IP with the IP100 Internet Module, IP/GPRS/GSM with
the PCS series module, and voice with the VDMP3 Plug-In
Voice Module.
 
With its reliable communication technology, flexible
expansion and user-friendly keypads, Spectra SP is the
complete residential or commercial security solution.

Feature Details
Internet Communication (IP100)
The IP100 Internet Module allows you to control and monitor your security system remotely
through any web browser. It allows for email notifications of important system events such as
alarms, arm/disarm events, and troubles. For example, receive an email at work when your kids
get back from school. Also, view the live status of your system and arm/disarm it. For instance,
you have just left your office for the weekend but are unsure whether you armed the system.
Simply check the status of your system from a laptop and arm it.

Wireless Communication (PCS Series)
The PCS series modules provide the Spectra SP control panels with wireless communication
capabilities to report system events via IP, GPRS, and/or GSM. Whether it be uploading/
downloading via IP or GPRS, receiving system status and events by voice or text message,
or reporting to the monitoring station via IP, GPRS, or GSM, the PCS series enhances the
communication capabilities of any Spectra SP installation.

Voice Communication (VDMP3)
The VDMP3 is a plug-in, voice-assisted module that can be programmed to call up to five
telephone numbers in the event of an alarm. For example, when an alarm occurs at your store
during off-hours, every employee can receive notification via telephone. You can also call the
VDMP3 from an outside line, enabling you to arm or disarm the system as well as activate PGMs.
The VDMP3 essentially turns any outside telephone into a keypad. The VDMP3 is easy to install;
plug it in directly onto the panel, set the phone numbers, and select the activation event.

StayD
StayD resolves all issues with common security systems and represents the only solution for
secure living. The revolutionary StayD feature represents a completely reversed philosophy
compared to all other security systems made today. Traditional systems share the same principle
- in order to provide security, users must remember to arm the system; otherwise the system is
disarmed and does not provide security. A StayD system is always armed, and needs only to be
partly disarmed when an entry or exit is needed. With StayD, you can truly have peace of mind
knowing, that you are always protected.

In-field Upgradable
Spectra SP is not only easy to install, but is also fully in-field upgradable, allowing for simple
on-site updates. The process is effortless; connect the PC to the panel and you are a few clicks
away from performing a complete system upgrade within minutes. No need to change panels or
hardware; all the updates are performed using Paradox’s InField Firmware Upgrade Software.
