In this video, Jorge talks about the key fobs that are compatible with the Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Plus. The compatibility depends on which version of the IQ Panel 2 Plus is being used. There are three versions of the alarm panel. These include a 319.5 MHz version, a 345 MHz version and a 433 MHz version.

All versions of the Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Plus include a PowerG daughterboard. This allows them to support PowerG Key Fobs that operate at 915 MHz. You will be able to use these key fobs regardless of which version of the IQ Panel 2 Plus you are using. PowerG Key Fobs make a great selection, as they feature an extended wireless range and 128-bit AES encryption.

In addition to the PowerG daughterboard, an IQ Panel 2 Plus System will also include a single legacy daughterboard. This determines which types of legacy sensors can be used with the system, and it ultimately affects key fob compatibility. The three legacy options are 319.5 MHz, 345 MHz and 433 MHz. End users should consider which types of sensors they want to use with the system before purchasing an IQ Panel 2 Plus.

If you have a 319.5 MHz IQ Panel 2 Plus, then you can use key fobs made by Qolsys and Interlogix/GE. These key fobs operate at 319.5 MHz, which will allow them to work with the system. Qolsys offers an S-Line Key Fob that uses rolling code encryption for added security. Other than the PowerG Key Fobs, this is the only compatible key fob that offers encryption.

If you have a 345 MHz IQ Panel 2 Plus, then you can use key fobs manufactured by Honeywell and 2GIG. However, you will not be able to use the Honeywell SiXFOB. This is a key fob that operates at a different frequency from the usual 345 MHz frequency. It is designed exclusively for the Honeywell Lyric Controller, and it will not work with any version the IQ Panel 2 Plus. However, you will be able to use Honeywell 5800 Series Key Fobs and all non-encrypted 2GIG Key Fobs. Also note that the 433 MHz IQ Panel 2 Plus supports legacy DSC Key Fobs.
