The Paradox MG5050+ Hybrid Wireless Alarm Kit with 2x PMD2P PIR Detectors and Weatherproof Siren/Strobe (PK-MG5+PM2X) is a versatile security alarm solution designed for residential and commercial properties across Australia and New Zealand. Featuring the expandable MG5050+ hybrid alarm controller, two PMD2P wireless motion detectors with 18kg pet immunity, a weatherproof external siren and blue strobe, metal enclosure and backup battery, this security kit provides reliable intrusion detection, flexible installation and audible and visual alarm notification.

At the heart of the system is the Paradox MG5050+ Hybrid Alarm Controller, offering eight onboard wired zones, expandable to 32 security zones through compatible expansion configurations. The controller supports up to 32 user codes, two independent alarm areas and programmable outputs expandable to 16, providing flexible security management for homes, offices, retail shops and other properties.

The MG5050+ combines hardwired alarm functionality with integrated wireless communication, allowing compatible Paradox wireless security devices to be incorporated without requiring dedicated alarm cabling to every detector.

For indoor intrusion detection, the kit includes two Paradox PMD2P Wireless Analogue Single-Optic PIR Motion Detectors, operating at 433MHz and featuring pet immunity for animals weighing up to 18kg. Each detector provides an 11m × 11m detection area, with centre beams extending up to 15m and an 88.5-degree viewing angle. Automatic temperature compensation and energy-saving technology help maintain dependable detection while supporting battery-powered operation.

The included CSD-1000 Weatherproof Siren and Strobe Kit provides external audible and visual alarm indication. This assembly incorporates a horn speaker/siren, blue strobe light, tamper switch, UV-treated weatherproof cover and additional top-hat screamer. Its pre-wired terminal block and mounting template help simplify installation.

The Paradox base kit includes a metal alarm enclosure, 12V 7Ah sealed lead-acid backup battery, 16V AC plug pack and cabinet tamper switch, providing essential housing and power components for the control panel.

With its expandable hybrid architecture, pet-friendly wireless motion detection and external alarm notification, the Paradox MG5050+ Alarm Kit PK-MG5+PM2X provides a practical foundation for professionally installed residential and commercial security systems.

Important: This kit does not include a keypad, remote control, internet communication module or cellular communicator. A compatible keypad or other supported user control method must be purchased separately.

The PMD2P motion detectors communicate wirelessly with the alarm controller. However, the included CSD-1000 weatherproof siren/strobe assembly is a wired alarm notification device, not a wireless siren.

Its expandable architecture allows security professionals to configure the system around different property layouts and protection requirements.

2. Two PMD2P Wireless Pet-Immune PIR Detectors

The kit includes two Paradox PMD2P Wireless Motion Detectors, incorporating analogue single-optic PIR technology and dual-element sensing.

Designed for indoor intrusion detection, the PMD2P offers pet immunity for animals weighing up to 18kg when correctly installed.

Key detector features:

• 433MHz wireless communication

• Dual-element PIR sensor

• Pet immunity up to 18kg

• 11m × 11m standard coverage

• Centre-beam range up to 15m

• 88.5-degree viewing angle

• Automatic temperature compensation

• Alive software for alarm LED functionality

• Energy-saving mode

• Compatible with the optional PDX-SB469 swivel bracket

Pet immunity is dependent on correct mounting, animal characteristics and environmental conditions.

3. Flexible Wireless Motion Detection

The PMD2P detectors communicate with the MG5050+ controller through compatible wireless communication, reducing the need to run dedicated detector cables.

This is particularly useful for existing homes, finished interiors and properties where additional security wiring may be difficult to install.

Typical wireless range with compatible MG5050 equipment is approximately 70m under suitable residential conditions.

Actual wireless coverage depends on building materials, installation positions and radio-frequency interference.

4. Weatherproof External Siren and Blue Strobe

The included CSD-1000 Siren/Strobe Kit provides audible and visual alarm notification.

It features a traditional external siren cover with an integrated blue strobe, high-quality siren/horn components and a pre-assembled connection arrangement.

Key features:

• Weatherproof, UV-treated plastic housing

• Blue warning strobe

• Audible siren/horn assembly

• Pre-wired terminal block

• Reed tamper switch

• Mounting template

• Separate top-hat piezo screamer

• Compact external design

The CSD-1000 is intended for wired connection to the alarm system.

5. Additional Top-Hat Audible Screamer

The CSD-1000 assembly includes a top-hat piezo screamer, providing an additional audible notification device.

The screamer operates from 12V DC and is rated at approximately 105dB/m according to the supplier's technical documentation.

This allows installers to incorporate further local audible alarm indication into the overall security configuration.

6. Two Independent Security Areas

The MG5050+ supports two partitions, allowing separate sections of a property to be managed independently.

This can be beneficial for:

• Homes with separate workspaces

• Offices with designated security areas

• Retail premises with back-of-house areas

• Small businesses with independently managed sections

Partition operation requires appropriate alarm programming and a compatible user control method.

7. Backup Battery Protection

The included 12V 7Ah sealed lead-acid battery provides backup power to the alarm control system during interruptions to mains power.

The system's backup duration depends on battery condition and the combined current consumption of connected equipment.

8. Expandable Wired and Wireless Security

The MG5050+ hybrid controller can be expanded with compatible security devices, including:

• Additional wired PIR detectors

• Compatible wireless motion detectors

• Magnetic door and window contacts

• Supported alarm keypads

• Compatible wireless accessories

• Optional communication modules

Additional devices are sold separately.

9. 512-Event Security History

The MG5050+ provides memory for up to 512 system events, helping authorised users and security technicians review recorded alarm activity and supported system conditions.

10. Optional Remote Alarm Connectivity

The MG5050+ supports compatible communication accessories for additional remote security functions.

Depending on the selected module, firmware and applicable services, compatible internet communication may provide remote alarm management and reporting.

No IP or cellular communication module is included with PK-MG5+PM2X.
