Streaming Alarm.com Cameras to the Qolsys IQ Panel 2

In this video, Joe shows users how they can stream Alarm.com Security Cameras directly from an IQ Panel 2 System. This feature is available for select ADC Cameras on IQ Panel 2 Systems that are running Firmware Version 2.2.1 or greater. The IQ Panel 2 and ADC Camera must be on the same WIFI network.

Normally, a user would have to access the Alarm.com service if they wanted to view the live feed for their ADC Cameras. This is possible through a web browser or through the Alarm.com Mobile App. However, Qolsys has made it possible for users to stream the live feed directly from the IQ Panel 2 screen. This can be convenient if a user wants to take a quick peak at their camera while they are at their system.

It is important to note that the feature only works with certain ADC Cameras. These are mostly newer-style cameras that connect to the network via WIFI. We recommend checking to make sure your ADC camera supports the feature before attempting to perform a live stream through the IQ Panel 2. Additionally, some cameras can also be used for two-way voice through the IQ Panel 2. This way, the user can have a live conversation with whoever is in front of the camera. Again, the audio streaming feature is only available for select ADC Cameras.

If you want to use an ADC Camera for live panel streaming, you will need to first enable the feature from Alarm.com. It's possible that you may need to reboot the IQ Panel 2 System before the streaming option will appear. The menu should be accessible from the main screen after swiping to the "Live Video Cameras" Menu. Please keep in mind that you will need an alarm monitoring plan that includes both video surveillance and access to Alarm.com for this to be possible.
