Transcript
Hey diy is george alarmgrid today we're gonna be going over what cameras are compatible with the lyric controller now if you have an existing old generation honeywell camera dole would be the honeywell ip cam wl - the ip cam wl any of the honeywell ip camp and tilts or the honeywell ip cam wl which is the outdoors those cameras should still work with the lyric controller you can get those activated by your existing monitoring company as long as you're under the correct plan however these will no longer be available in the near future honeywell will be discontinuing these pretty soon since they are releasing their brand-new releasing they have already released their brand new lyric generation cameras so these are gonna be honeywell's new cameras that they're trying to focus more on one of these we actually have here right now it's the lyric c1 do we also have a lyric outdoor one which is a bullet style camera i couldn't bring it in here it's already installed and the lyric c2 now these are honeywell's new generation cameras the c1 and the c2 are 720p cameras or the c1 the 720p the c2 is a 1080p and then the oc one which is the outdoor one is also 1080p now these cameras cannot be viewed directly through a lyric controller so what you would need to do is have your monitoring company set up a total connect account for you and then using the new total using the total connect account you can actually add these cameras so you can access them to view them all in the same application now you're able to control the lear controller with unlike the old generation cameras which actually stream to the lyric so you can actually if you go to lyric screen the way you used to be able to see the old generation cameras was by going to the primary screen go to video and well you would first be taken to the camera list it should have the ip mac it should have the ip mac of the ip camera if you just highlight it it'll turn green you can hit display and it'll display the image of that camera on the lyric screen to back out just at the back arrow key and you're at the lyrics primary screen which is where the video button is but that is for the old generation cameras which is the again just the wol 2wl we have the pan toe and the outdoor camera these were the ones that you can view directly on the lyric screen but like i said they're gonna be discontinued very soon so you will no longer have the option of doing that now i'm pretty sure since the lyric they're always releasing new firmware updates hopefully it is in the works that honeywell will be releasing some sort of firmware update that will eventually allow you to stream the lyric new generation cameras to the actual lyric controller so that you not only can view through total connect but if you're at home and you want to pull up your security system and go to the video screen you can view them through the actual panel itself again if you have any questions you can always email us at support at alarm grid comm if you found this video helpful hit like also don't forget to subscribe to this youtube channel and also hit done hit the alert button so that you get notified every time we upload a new video and again think you offer watching the video i hope to see you guys next time
