Menus
Menu-Driven Settings and Configuration
The NVX80 introduces a unique 4-button interface and full-color OLED display screen. The NVX80 is completely menudriven, making programming and configuration simple. There are no jumpers, trimmers or complex wiring to contend with.
The OLED screen displays a variety of icons which indicate the current state of the detector. Alarm, pre-alarm,
and anti-mask events as well as notifications are displayed on the OLED. The menus provide direct control of the
detectors operation, the sensitivity level settings, display characteristics and more.
To protect against malicious activity, the NVX80s menus and button interface are active only when the tamper
screw at the bottom of the unit is open. The menus and button interface become functional only after a tamper
event is issued.
Installation specific settings can be saved and restored if altered. Settings can also be reset to factory defaults, all
with the push of a button.
The following items are included in the NVX80 main menu: PIR, Microwave, Anti-Mask, Alarm Condition, Input,
Output, Diagnostics, Settings, About and Language. Via the menu these features can be activated, sensitivities set
and tested, input and outputs can be defined and product information can be viewed.

Paradox developed the NVX80 to provide superior anti-masking capabilities. The combined Active IR and MW
anti-mask technologies detect an extensive range of materials placed or sprayed on the lens, and object placed
in close proximity of the lens, movement within close range of the unit and the degradation of the lens by dirt or
dust by 50% from factory-set levels. The NVX80 anti-mask technology protects the detector from a wide range of
materials; including but not limited to clear lacquer, aluminum foil, cling wrap, clear adhesive tape, and spray paint.
If an obstruction is detected and remains for a predetermined time, an anti-mask event will be noted. If the object
causing the obstruction, masking or blocking, is removed before the predetermined time has been reached an
alarm will not be triggered or cause an effect on the relays.
Active IR detects any objects blocking the lens in close proximity of the unit; 0 30 mm / 0 - 11.8 in. The anti-mask
response time can be set at :30, :60, and :120 seconds. The response time will correspond to the time needed for
the masking to persist until an alarm is triggered. During the response relay time, 3-5 seconds after detection of an
obstruction, a blue frame will be displayed. This will allow for an object accidentally blocking the lens to be removed.
13
Anti-Mask Notification appears, only in the Operation Mode, 3-5 seconds after an
obstruction is detected or in rotation with the Active IR Anti-Mask indicator after the
response time is reached.
The NVX80 is built for harsh conditions, indoor or outdoor. Its anti-mask settings can be set to reduce sensitivity to
rain, wind and other inclement conditions.
The MW anti-mask feature detects motion within 0.5 m - 2 m / 1 ft 64 in - 6 ft 5 in from the unit.
The MW anti-mask is activated if a validated detection of movement has occurred during the 10 minutes prior to the
anti-mask detection. As the moving object nears the detector, the blue frame will appear on the OLED screen for 90
seconds. The MW anti-mask relay has not yet been activated. If an alarm is triggered as the result of the main lens
detection of an object, during that same period, the blue frame will disappear and a MW anti-mask event will not occur.
If no alarm is triggered by detection of the main lens in the 90 second period, a MW anti-mask relay will be activated
and the MW anti-mask logo will be displayed. The MW anti-mask relay and logo will be cleared by an Alarm event
triggered by the main lens.
An Active IR anti-mask has a higher display priority. If Active IR and MW anti-mask events occur simultaneously,
then the blue frame will appear instead of a green frame and the Active IR anti-mask logo will appear instead of the
MW anti-mask logo. The resulting relays are not affected by the display priority.
Display Icons
The NVX80 features an OLED screen on which colorful icons are used to display alarm status, alarm type,
and notifications.
Pre-Alarms
When a movement signal is detected by within a PIR or MW range, the corresponding pre-alarm is shown.
The detector waits for 16 seconds for the complementary technologys detection. If no additional movement is
detected during that time, the detector will return to its standby state.

The PIR detection and the microwave detection can be activated alone or in conjunction with the other capabilities.
When setting an output to microwave or PIR only, the relay delays may be as quick as 10 seconds. This should be
noted when performing walk tests, as the relay delay may extend to as long as you keep walking or a maximum of
30 seconds.
Pet Immunity
Pet Immunity
The NVX80s Pet Immunity can filter out the movement small and large animals, up to 20 kg / 44 lbs in both indoor
and outdoor environments. By ignoring the movement of the pets the detectors reliability increases.
17
Tamper
Tamper messages are triggered by when the tamper screw at the bottom of the unit is opened or the wall tamper
screws have been disengaged.
Appears when the tamper screw at the bottom of the unit is tightly closed.
It signifies that the unit has entered operation
Appears when the tamper screw at the bottom of the unit is open and that the
menus are not accessible. This message will also appear at the end of the power
up sequence.
Appears when the Wall Tamper screw has been disengaged. This message will
also appear after the Power Up sequence is finished, should the Wall Tamper
screw be open during power up. The detector will enter menu mode after the
power up sequence is over.
When any of the tampers are detected as open, a relay configured as a Tamper will trigger. The wall tamper switch
can be excluded from this relay sequence by disabling it in the Input menu.
18
Notifications
The following notifications appear when the functionality of the NVX80 unit is compromised. These indicators can
help troubleshoot during installation or during operation.
Appears in Operation Mode when the units voltage is below 10v. It may also appear
after an alarm or at the end of the power up sequence if the voltage was low.
The Test Bus tool, reached in the Diagnostics Menu, can be used to discern the
units current voltage.
Appears in Operation Mode when a strong light source is in front of the unit.
Appears in Operation Mode when the unit detects a reduction in lens transparency,
i.e., below 50% of factory-set levels. If this condition exists, this message will
appear at the end of the power up sequence.
Appears in Operation Mode if any of the Digiplex wires are disconnected or invalid.
This message will appear only once at the end of the power up sequence. Once the
Digiplex bus is connected properly, this message will only appear if it is once again
disconnected or invalid.
