Users with an alarm system and Alarm.com video service can now receive video events and thumbnails directly on their IQ Panel 4 screens for increased property awareness.
Previously, IQ4 panels only displayed motion detection and doorbell button press events. Now, with new Video Events and Thumbnails, users have instant access to more information with expanded event type support, including people, animal, and vehicle events and more. These thumbnail notifications appear directly on the panel, providing clear snapshots of activity and allowing for quick, informed decisions, whether that is responding to a visitor or monitoring the property. Additionally, the panel can verbally announce the notification, so residents always know what is happening, even when they are not near the panel. Requires firmware version 4.6.1 or later.
To enable, add the panel as a recipient on desired video analytics rules. Alarm.com website > Video > Recording Rules > + Add New Rule.
