Honeywell L3000: Self Monitoring

In this video, Michael from Alarm Grid explains how you can self-monitor a Honeywell L3000 Security System. The term "self-monitoring" refers to the practice of connecting a security system with an interactive monitoring platform, but not with a central monitoring station. This monitoring platform will send the end user text and/or email alerts when system events occur. It will then be up to the user to contact emergency help when a text or email alert comes through. Since no central station is involved, it is the responsibility of the end user to request help on their own. Self-monitoring service is only recommended for users who feel comfortable and confident in their abilities to very quickly take action when they receive text and/or email alerts regarding system activity.

To use the Honeywell L3000 for self-monitoring service, the system must be set up with the AlarmNet servers and Total Connect 2.0. When the L3000 System goes into alarm, it will send an alert to AlarmNet. From there, AlarmNet will pass on the notification to Total Connect 2.0. The Total Connect 2.0 platform is designed to notify users via texts and/or email messages when this occurs. The user must set up notifications on Total Connect 2.0 so that alerts are sent out when alarm events are received by the platform. There is a specific process to follow when setting up Total Connect 2.0 notifications, so make sure that the notifications are set up properly.

Your Honeywell L3000 will need a compatible AlarmNet Communication to interface with AlarmNet and Total Connect 2.0. The most popular AlarmNet Communicators for use with the L3000 are the Honeywell LTE-L3A AT&T LTE Communicator and the Honeywell LTE-L3V Verizon LTE Communicator. Both use reliable cellular connectivity and will readily interface with Total Connect 2.0. The L3000 must be on Firmware Version 20.1 or higher to support Total Connect 2.0.
