Honeywell ACU Posts

Resideo, in a February 17, 2025, announcement, declared the end-of-life (EOL) for its first-generation Total Connect 2.0-compatible cameras. These cameras will no longer function with the TC2 platform after July 31, 2025. Resideo recommends replacing them promptly for uninterrupted service.

The following cameras and accessories are affected by this notice:

The VX Series cameras from Resideo are now available for use with Total Connect 2.0, providing a significant upgrade in performance and features. Improvements include enhanced image resolution and quality, sophisticated AI event detection (allowing for more precise alerts), and integrated two-way audio functionality.

The VX Series doesn't directly replace some older camera equipment. Specifically, it lacks replacements for the first-generation pan-tilt camera, the ACU (analog converter unit), and the WAP-Plus access point. If you need to replace these older devices, Resideo suggests using one or more VX5 indoor cameras in place of the IP-CAM PT/IP-CAM PT2. Cameras currently connected to ACUs should also be replaced with the appropriate VX Series camera.

It's true what they say: all good things must come to an end. And while the original Total Connect 2.0 cameras were mediocre by today's standards, they served a vital purpose in a market with few options at the time. They were especially useful for DIYers looking to add integrated video to their alarm systems without a lot of extra complexity.

The VX Series cameras offer the modern features customers expect, integrating seamlessly with Total Connect 2.0, PROSeries panels, and the VISTAH3 (via its touchscreen keypad). For now, Resideo is keeping it simple, offering one (1) indoor camera, one (1) outdoor camera, and one (1) video doorbell option in the VX Series.
