Innovation has always been at the core of what we do at 2GIG. The original 2GIG security and automation panel changed the game in the security industry, by being the very first to include a touch screen and on board smart home control module, in an incredibly easy to install and program self-contained security system. 2GIG became the fastest growing security and control platform in history, with over three million installations worldwide.
Now Nortek Security and Control is proud to introduce the latest 2GIG self-contained security and control platform, GC3. GC3 is more than an upgrade to the current panel. Not just a larger screen over an older design. It is a complete redesign of the entire 2GIG panel platform Graphical User Interface and menu structure, created to be the easiest most intuitive experience of any security system in the industry.
The new GC3 panel offers a seven inch color, capacitive touchscreen with 800 by 480 pixel resolution. New, easier to read and streamlined Graphical User Interface, reducing installation time by 30%. 100 zones of wireless security. Two hardwire zones and two open collector outputs. Up to 100 unique users.
Both installers and end users will find the intuitive Graphical User Interface to be a huge advantage over other security products on the market. The menus are designed to be simple to use, with the absolute minimum number of steps to perform each function. True one-touch arming makes setting your system easier than any security panel in the industry.
Simply push the larger arm stay button, to arm the system while you're at home, protecting the outside of the home while allowing you to move freely inside the home. Or press the arm away but if you are leaving for the day. The easy to read time, date, and weather information let you know what kind of day to expect. And the easy to see countdown timer eliminates guesswork on how much time remains until the panel is armed.
Smart home control has been at the heart of all 2GIG panels, since the very beginning. The new GC3 panel makes working with your smartphone devices easier than ever before. Programming new smart home devices is a snap, with clear step-by-step menus, to give you simple control over lights, thermostats, door locks, and tons of other solutions.
The system can be controlled from the panel or from anywhere in the world using a mobile app. Home automation by definition should work automatically with the way you live. The GC3 allows you to establish scenes that can control multiple devices with the press of a button, making common activities, like leaving for work or going to bed, much easier. For instance, you could create a good night scene that will turn off the lights, lock the door, and set the thermostat to a comfortable temperature.
The innovative rooms feature is a first in the self-contained security panel market. This feature lets the user group together smart home devices and scenes, into a room where they can view all of the automation settings for that room.

These features make GC3 as simple to use as other consumer electronic devices. Providing full control with a simple touch of an easy to read button. Or automatically through no touch at all.
