Good afternoon and thanks for all of the great info!
Similar to “andunn” (#51659) I am signed up through Livewatch, but looking to get additional components because I do not like the aesthetics of what Livewatch sent.
I currently use AT&T, installed 4/2014, and was told it was not compatible with the Qolsys panel (no biggie). That said, I like the no profile door contacts, pure white dome glass breaks and the thinner profile of the window contacts.
Livewatch sent me the glassbreak that you recommended to “andunn”, but I was hoping there was a dome / pure white model you might recommend, along with no profile door contacts and window sensors (example links below).
The Qolsys site has been down all day, but I was also wondering if there was a list of compatible / supported devices? I want to ensure my Yale lock is compatible because I am having trouble connecting it.
That’s strange about AT&T. One of my friends has them and his Qolsys system works fine through live watch.
I agree with you though. I’d like to replace the window/door sensors they sent me that I’m using for my doors and go with recessed ones. Then move the existing door sensors to my windows because those won’t be very noticeable.
I could be wrong, but I thought GE Interlogix would work on the Simon or qolsys system. I know they have recessed door sensors. I could be wrong though and will wait to see what surety knows about this.
sorry about the website being down yesterday, but should be back up now.
We are working on a recessed door sensor and should have that available in the coming months, which should help hide the sensor inside door frames.
Because the IQ panel is compatible with almost any radio frequency 319.5 sensor, you should be able to find a variety of these devices in the marketplace and have them work with your platform.
I’m not aware of a dome shaped glass break though. All the compatible models I know of use the same housing. Here’s a GE one.
The Yale lock is compatible. You may need to perform a clear device function on it first, and keep in mind it should be within a few feet of the panel when learned in. See Z-wave installation instructions here.
