There isn’t any issues using the same wire however you should change the power supply where it is plugged into an outlet.
You can learn them in manually or you can perform a back up of the IQ Panel 2 and restore them on the IQ Panel 4. There shouldn’t be any issues with learning them into the new panel but they all will need to be tampered(cover opened and then closed).
A backup/restore can be run to apply RF sensor programming, User Codes, and panel programming to the new panel. This process can be performed during normal business hours.
The process for the backup restore is as follows:
Run a backup
Once the new panel is received and you are ready to start the process:
Do not program the new panel
Power down the old panel power supply first, then internal battery
Private Messsage us with the new panel’s 15-digit IMEI number and confirm the old panel is powered down
We will send commands to begin the restoral process and confirm this has been sent.
The restoral can take 20-30 mintues. During this time, do not add any devices to the new panel or send any arming disarming commands or make any programming changes to the new panel.
You will know the process is nearing completion once the last of the sensors populates at the panel. Wait an additional 5 minutes or so for User codes to populate, if applicable.
