Setting Up WIFI & Cell on a Qolsys IQ Panel 2
In this video, Jorge from Alarm Grid shows you how to set up WIFI and cellular communication for a Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Plus System. The system must have an active communication path for communicating with Alarm.com. Per Alarm.com requirements, a cellular communication path must be properly configured.
The Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Plus comes with both a WIFI card and an LTE cellular communicator built right in. This means that the system can be set up for dual-path communication right out of the box. Setting up the cellular communication path is required due to requirements mandated by Alarm.com. Getting the system connected with a WIFI network is technically optional, but most users will go ahead and do it because it does not cost extra to get the system connected through both cellular and WIFI. And since most users will have WIFI in their homes and businesses, it just makes sense to get the panel on both WIFI and cellular.
When a Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Plus System set up for dual-path communication needs to communicate with Alarm.com, it will send out signals across both communication paths. Whichever signal reaches the Alarm.com Servers first will automatically go through, while the other signal will be automatically discarded. This prevents the command from being triggered twice. As long as one signal reaches the Alarm.com Servers, the command will go through as intended. In most cases, the WIFI signal will reach the intended destination first. This is because WIFI is usually a little bit faster than cellular. However, cellular communication is typically seen as the more reliable and consistent option. This is because internet outages are relatively common, and an internet outage will take the system offline. But if the system has a cellular communication path set up, as is required for Alarm.com, then it will be okay because the system will still be able to successfully send out signals through a cellular network.
