Using the IPCAM-WOC1 With a Lyric Security System

In this video, Jorge explains how you cannot view the IPCAM-WOC1 through the Lyric Alarm Panel. The Lyric only allows you to view legacy Total Connect IP Cameras through the panel itself. But the IPCAM-WOC1 is a newer Total Connect HD Camera. You can only view it from the Total Connect 2.0 platform.

The Honeywell IPCAM-WOC1 is an outdoor security camera designed for use with Total Connect 2.0. You cannot actually use this camera with the Lyric System itself. However, you can use it with the Total Connect 2.0 service that is commonly used with the Lyric System. The camera can be viewed at any time by logging into your Total Connect 2.0 account from the website or mobile app. By using the mobile app, you can view the camera from essentially anywhere. You can also have Total Connect 2.0 send you text and/or email alerts whenever the camera is activated so that you know when to check a new clip.

Remember that you will need an alarm monitoring plan that includes video service to use the IPCAM-WOC1. If you also have a Lyric Alarm System that you want to use for alarm monitoring, then you will want to get a Platinum Level Plan from Alarm Grid. This plan will include access to Total Connect 2.0 for interactive monitoring, smart home automation, and video surveillance service. You can choose between two (2) different Platinum Plans. One of these plans includes service from a central monitoring station, while the other does not. Both plans will include access to Total Connect 2.0 for all of the aforementioned services. But unfortunately, there is no way to view the IPCAM-WOC1 from the Lyric System itself.

Also keep in mind that the IPCAM-WOC1 is an IP Camera that connects with a local WIFI network to access the Total Connect 2.0 platform. As a result, there must be internet internet in the building to use this camera. You will also likely want to use the local WIFI network as the primary communication path for the Resideo Lyric Alarm System. We also recommend setting up a cellular communication path as backup for the system. This will require a cellular communicator. You can choose between the LYRICLTE-A and the LYRICLTE-V. Our Platinum Level Plans also include cellular connectivity for the Lyric.
