Johnson Controls announced that its proven PowerManage service management platform and the ConnectAlarm mobile app now support the latest next-generation IQ alarm panels. This new integration delivers an all-in-one intrusion detection solution with hardware, software, service and technical support.
Installers and end users alike can benefit from the system’s simplified installation process, localised data management, intuitive remote access and Bluetooth disarming capability.
The IQ Panel 4 Family is the newest line of all-in-one, wireless smart home and security systems from Johnson Controls, now available to customers in EMEA regions. Home and small business owners can choose from three IQ panel models:
• The IQ Panel 4 goes beyond security, offering a complete smart home solution. Its premium features include an 8 MP camera with 120-degree wide-angle lens with Flex Tilt for high-quality disarm photos and alarm videos, three microphones with echo cancellation, two-way voice, built-in glass break detector, panel motion, and a compatible IQ base with QuadSound speakers.
• The IQ4 HUB shares some advanced features with the IQ Panel 4 like the built-in touchscreen, control of automation devices, music streaming and a photo frame screen saver.
• The IQ4 NS is a screen-free panel that offers affordable smart security. The panel is ideal for customers who prefer a smaller, sleek panel with all the essential security features, as well as the powerful benefits that come with PowerManage integration.
All three IQ panels include the unique Bluetooth disarming function, which allows users to disarm their security system hands-free using their mobile device. As the end user approaches the door from the outside, their mobile phone comes within range of the system’s Bluetooth and automatically disarms, without the need to enter a code on the outside panel. End users can give Bluetooth access to other authorised people, as well, so families can share access to the home and even grant access to other loved ones, if desired.
PowerManage is an all in-one receiver, technical management centre and interactive service platform that runs on standard professional server hardware and verified web technologies with stringent cybersecurity standards implemented. It can be installed on a local server or in the cloud, giving companies of all sizes greater flexibility and freedom to manage customer data in the way that works best for them.
IQ panels feature SmartMount installation systems, which allow panels to be quickly and easily mounted on a wall, table stand or IQ base. PowerManage also includes AlarmInstall, a mobile app that streamlines alarm panel installation and programming compared to keypads. Using AlarmInstall, technicians can quickly configure security systems, perform diagnostics and walk tests, enrol devices and more, from a mobile device.
When IQ panels are supported by PowerManage, home and small business owners can use the platform’s free, intuitive ConnectAlarm mobile app to remotely monitor and control intrusion alarm systems from a mobile device. Key ConnectAlarm capabilities include:
• Arming/disarming the system remotely.
• Performing visual verification and image on demand.
• Checking alarms and event histories.
• Using biometric authorisation instead of a password.
• Setting up alarms and alerts push notifications.
• Geofencing.
