In this video, Jorge shows users how to enroll a Versa GE Sensor into a Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Plus. You can auto-enroll the sensor by putting the system into its auto-enrollment mode and then activating the sensor's tamper cover. The system will recognize the sensor and allow you to adjust its settings.

Note: The Interlogix and similar sensors have a TX ID and a DL Code. Both are often shown on the sticker on the box. The DL Code is what is transmitted by the sensor to the Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Plus. The TX ID reverses the first two (2) digits and the last two (2) digits of the DL Code, so if you're looking at the TX ID, and comparing that to the number learned into the panel, it will appear jumbled.

The Versa GE Sensor is a door and window contact sensor that operates at 319.5 MHz. It is a very versatile sensor, and it will work with nearly any alarm system that accepts this sensor frequency. It is important to note that not all versions of the Qolsys IQ Panel 2 Plus accept the 319.5 MHz frequency. There also versions of the IQ Panel 2 Plus that accept 345 MHz signals or 433 MHz signals instead of 319.5 MHz signals.

If you are wanting to use a Versa GE Sensor with an IQ Panel 2 Plus, you must make sure it is a 319.5 MHz version. This is also sometimes referred to as the "legacy Interlogix" model. Interlogix/GE Sensors, as well as wireless sensors manufactured by Qolsys also operate at the same 319.5 MHz frequency. You can use any of these sensors with a 319.5 MHz IQ Panel 2 Plus. There are a few different ways to determine if your IQ Panel 2 Plus is a 319.5 MHz version. The easiest way is to check the box. A 319.5 MHz IQ2+ will have a gold and white box.

If you have a different version of the IQ Panel 2 Plus, then there are nearly identical sensors you can use with the system. VERSA manufacturers door and window contacts across most popular alarm system frequencies. There is an available option for all versions of the IQ Panel 2 Plus. For the 345 MHz version, you can get a VERSA-2GIG Sensor. And for the 433 MHz version, you can get a VERSA-DSC Sensor. The VERSA-GE, the VERSA-2GIG, and the VERSA-DSC are all the same sensors, the only difference is the operating frequency for enrollment.
