When it comes to a security system for your either home or business in Clearwater, know it entails so much more than just intrusion alert. The Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Plus is a robust security suite perfectly designed to give you everything you need to effectively manage your home’s entire security, both while you’re there or away.
Qolys IQ Panel Dual Radio Frequencies
If you already have a security system installed, it can seem like a waste to replace every sensor and camera when you upgrade. To ease this burden, the Qolsys IQ Panel works with dual radio frequencies, featuring both PowerG and the legacy 319.5 MHz channels. This allows you to keep any current sensors on the older channel while adding new ones or replacing those that are malfunctioning or old.
Qolys IQ Panel 2 PowerG
PowerG is the latest technology in two-way communication for security systems. Not only does it boast 128-bit AES encryption to ward off digital attacks, but offers the end-user some bonuses too. Take for instance the Adaptive Transmission Power, which extends the batter life for the system’s devices and sensors to up to eight years. It also extends transmission ranges by 4 times, reducing the need for repeaters around larger properties.
Front Camera
It’s nice to know that the people you’ve given a code to are the ones actually using the code. The Qolsys IQ Panel has a built-in front camera and records a picture of the person manually disarming the system. It also records photos when an invalid code is entered, or a video if an alarm is triggered.
Thermostat Control
The Qolsys IQ security system helps not only maintain security, but streamline some of your smart devices. With this panel, you can connect up to six different thermostats throughout your building. You can then manage those thermostats locally on the panel or through the alarm.com mobile app.
Lock Control
The Qolsys IQ also allows you to connect up to six Z-Wave locks, giving you unparalleled control over your doors. This is especially helpful if you’re expecting someone and don’t necessarily want to give them permanent access. You can easily unlock one or all doors from both the panel or the alarm.com app.
Light Control
Lights can be an incredible asset when you’re trying to deter nefarious activities or just feel safe when entering your home. The Qolsys IQ allows you to pair up to 80 Z-Wave lights, lamp modules, and bulbs to the panel. This mean you can easily turn lights on and off around your building from the main control panel or your smartphone.
Garage Door
Forget about trying to keep track of your garage door opener or keep the batteries good. With the IQ Panel, you can open and lose up to 10 different Z-Wave garage door controllers directly from the panel or the alarm.com app.
Live View & Answer
Many people like the convenience of video doorbells offer, allowing them to see who’s at the door before ever approaching it. When you pair the supported Skybell or alarm.com doorbells with the IQ Panel, you bring this convenience right to the large 7” HD control panel. This means if your kids are home alone, or you have a sitter, they can see what’s happening at the front door without putting themselves in harm’s way.
Zone Groups
When you’re securing a large property, sometimes it’s helpful to arm some system, but leave others unarmed. The IQ panel allows you to create up to four of these groups, called partitions. This is a very helpful feature for when you’re entertaining at home, and want to keep people out of certain parts of the house or just need a single office open in your building.
In addition to the arming and disarming feature, you can also set up groups of devices to turn them on and off with a single button. Want to turn off all the lights in the living room and entertaining spaces and night, simple put them in the same group.
Photo Frame
Your control panel is no longer limited to the mundane one off look with the Qolsys IQ Panel. Rather, choose to turn it into a photo frame with pictures you provide, or you can select a weather clock. You can also set it to automatically turn off in the evening to reduce light and save power.
User Levels
The IQ Panel allows for up to 242 users with three different levels. The “master” level allows full access to all functions. The “user” level provides access to panel function, the camera, but not system settings. Finally, the “guest” level is for temporary access to arm and disarm the system.
Care Service Features
It’s unfortunate when someone in your household must depend on someone to come in to care for them. However, when you’re in the situation, you want to know your security system isn’t going to get in the way. The IQ Panel has a wellness page, which replaces the main security and arming page. From here, there is a simple check in and check out feature so that you know when the caregiver has been by.
Easy Install Wizard
The Qolys IQ Panel also comes with the simple and intuitive Install Wizard. This takes the already simple install process and makes it consistent for the installer to make the process simple and consistent. This means less time troubleshooting during the install process, allowing your installer to complete the job more quickly so that you can get on with your day.
