Hi. Can the MyQ door opening trigger the alarm? I noticed recently that when in Away mode and opening door did not trigger.
Thanks
No. MyQ doors are not connected to the alarm system and cannot generate any alarm events. Notifications can be set up in Alarm.com for when they open.
For alarm events on an overhead door, you would need a sensor suited for the door that is compatible with your panel, tilt sensors are often used, however I usually don’t recommend setting garage overhead doors as alarm generating zones unless the door is very rigid and unmoved by wind. Tilt sensors are known to false alarm from vibration.
Thank you. This is what I had assumed. I had reed switches on them, but removed them. I will re-install.
