The Paradox PH.GR.FIT.08 fire alarm control panel is a conventional system based on Bus technology, with operation via a three-level access menu. Zones and relay outputs can be expanded using boards connected via a four-wire Bus, while detectors receive power and communicate with the panel through the zone connection.

It supports cross-zoning and extinguishing operation, with up to 18 areas in a fully installed system. Each extinguishing area uses four zones and four relays. The LCD keypad supports monitoring, operation and programming, while the system offers Intellizone alarm verification, day/night mode, general evacuation, Walk Test and event logging.
