Has anyone connected this to an Alarm.com system? (In my case, Frontpoint Security.)

I use this thermostat with FrontPoint & Alarm.com and am very happy with the integration. I can set a schedule, view status, set alerts if the thermostat is changed or the temp hits a threshold. The only glitch I've had is that I occasionally receive alerts that the thermostat experienced a temporary malfunction. I have no idea what causes the alerts, but it is probably unrelated to FrontPoint and Alarm.com.Alarm.com supports Windows Phones with their app, which is really nice to have.

I used two of them with a GE Concord 4 Series, I also have two Z-Wave switches. I control all with Alarm.com it works fine.

I have connected mine to Vitex security system and access it through that and Alarm.com. It works fine.

I'm pretty certain this only works as a second control. But since most of the DYI alarms are keypad + system all in one box, it allows me to hide the main one in a closet and just use the touchpad near the door.

This will work pretty much universally. But, it is not plug and play. You will need to individually tap each wire. There are a lot of sites that provide model specific diagrams for adding alarm systems.

If it has an alarm then I have not used it. It is a bluetooth iPod speaker system. I use it for music; and excellent sound system!William Boon

I have a Watchdog system and the alarm can be heard clearly upstairs or install the alarm upstairs or link it to your Android or IPhone portable device. B

Yes, it can. This was my first install and I eventually figured it out. Not real intuitive but not impossible. If you have any experience with alarm systems then you will have no problem.

while i cant technically fully answer your question but i have yet to run into a device that doesn't work. I found that the lowes system (cant remember the name) does nit work as I suspect it is more proprietary. Zwave itself is an open design so there are many devices that work. BTW the zwave locks are great because they can disarm the alarm and vice a versa.

Don't know- it works great with my Front point system, witch uses Alarm.com as and interface. If LiveWatch uses Alarm.com as well, then I would be sure that it would work. ANy kind of Z-wave system should work, but you never know.

Yes Shelley P this system does work on the front point security system. Call up the 800 number and asked them to walk threw the setup with you. It's painless.

Yes.... The question you should be asking is what kind of alarm is installed already? and is the alarm compatible? This PA system is an "add on" to your alarm system.

I already had 1 of these units (set up by installer). I bought 3 more on amazon.com and self-installed and they just showed up on alarm.coms site after I configured the main panel. Don't know if this helps you or not.

I don't have this alarm but it should be able to do what you ask. Alarm just has to be programmed for those features to work. Just know that extra parts may be required.

It should work based upon you have wifi router and video monte ring service. Alarm.com equipment is made to be used as a universal add on for all newer systems. Follow the instructions you should be fine.

Some monitoring companies such as those aligned with Alarm.com can do a wireless firmware upgrade (mine did) which is required if your main control panel is on a different firmware than the TS-1. Likewise, the TS-1 and Control panel need to be on a more current version of the firmware - 1.9 I believe so requesting an update is advisable anyway.

Great question. Alarm.com have created a fantastic platform (currently the best - by far -on the market) to control your alarm system remotely via a great mobile app; to receive instant notification of alarms, arm/diarm, sensor-left-open, power-fail, etc; and to interface this app with other Z-wave devices such as thermostats, lights, locks and garage-door openners in your home. Alarm.com modules are cellular based. Cellular based connection is far safer than broadband connection since the module is power-backed-up by the alarm panel and the transmission/communication is not dependent on the functionality of the premiss gateway/router. The cellular connection - not unlike the cellular connection of your phone - cost money. (After buying a cellular phone you need to pay your carrier for service). Additionaly Alarm.com is - after all - a business so the ychare for their services. Our rates for the Alarm.com Interactive Services are extremely competitive (the lowest around as far as we know): $14.99/month when you pre-pay for 1-year. Also, unlike most other alarm companies we do not require a 2 or 3-year contract. Does this answer your question?

I went with AlarmSim, but as @LeppardQueen said, it will take a while to pay off.. I figure either way is less expensive than getting a new system.. I'll report back once I receive it an set up.
