Programming the VISTA-21iP To Use IP Only
In this video, Jorge from Alarm Grid discusses how you can program a Honeywell VISTA-21iP Panel to use IP communication only. This is as opposed to dual-path communication, in which the system would have both cellular and IP communication paths available. An IP monitoring plan is needed to activate.
The Honeywell VISTA-21iP has a built-in P communicator for this exact purpose. The communicator allows the system to maintain connectivity with the Resideo AlarmNet360 Servers. This is necessary for alarm monitoring service and for using the system with Total Connect 2.0. Just remember that you will need an alarm monitoring plan to activate the communicator. If you choose to receive monitoring service from Alarm Grid, then you can choose from any of our monitoring plans. All of our monitoring plans include IP connectivity.
In order to program the IP communicator, you will need to enter programming. This requires entering the Installer Code for the system. Remember that the default system Installer Code is 4112. It is strongly recommended that you use an Alphanumeric Keypad when programming the system. Trying to use a Fixed English Keypad will result in you operating blindly, and it is very likely that you might make a programming mistake. Please note that the built-in IP communicator for the 21iP allows for connectivity using a hardwired ethernet connection. There is no way to add WIFI functionality to a VISTA-21iP.
It is recommended that you add a cellular communicator to the system if possible. This is because using IP-only communication will result in a loss of connectivity with the AlarmNet Servers whenever the internet goes down. Having cellular backup will allow the system to maintain connectivity in these situations. Some of the best dual-path communicators to use with the VISTA-21iP include the Honeywell LTE-IA and the Honeywell LTE-IV. Remember, you will need a monitoring plan that includes cellular service to use cellular communication with the system. This could be a Gold or Platinum Level Plan from Alarm Grid.
