Can I Use A Resideo IPCAM-WOC2 Without an Alarm System?
Yes, you can use the Resideo IPCAM-WOC2 without an alarm system. The camera works in conjunction with Total Connect 2.0. TC2 is often used with an alarm panel, but that is not a requirement. An end-user can choose to go with a stand-alone video plan that does not require a security panel.
The IPCAM-WOC2, which replaces the IPCAM-WOC1, is an outdoor rated 1080p camera. It connects to the internet using 2.4 GHz WIFI and has a new internal BlueTooth antenna and superior night-vision capabilities. It also offers intelligent sound detection with audio analytics. It comes with a 16 GB MicroSD card, which can be used for backup storage in the event the network connection is lost. It boasts a viewing angle of 117.0° and an IP66 rating.
As one of several HD cameras from Resideo and Honeywell Home, the IPCAM-WOC2 can be used in conjunction with an alarm panel and Total Connect 2.0. In fact, it can be viewed directly from the Honeywell Home PROA7PLUS, the Resideo PROA7PLUSC, and their touchscreen keypads the Honeywell Home PROWLTOUCH and the Resideo PROWLTOUCHC. In order to support local viewing, the panel must be on Firmware Version 03.591.92.0 or higher. Up to eight (8) HD Cameras can be viewed per panel. For full details, read this helpful FAQ.
If you don't have an alarm panel, never fear. You can still use up to eight (8) IPCAM-WOC2 cameras with a video-only monitoring plan. With this plan, there is no security system involved. Just sign up for the correct plan and once the account has been created by your alarm dealer, they will send the Total Connect 2.0 login credentials to you. You can then log in and begin adding your cameras to the account. Once the cameras have been added, the user can create notifications based on video analytics that can be configured per camera. If you don't want the cameras to send notifications 24/7, you can create schedules to determine when they are active and when they aren't.
