Reuse existing QOLSYS panel with Telus Smart Home
Hi,
I have an existing QOLSYS panel with my last home security provider.
With my new plan with telus, I am not eligible for a panel as I am trying to reuse the existing sensors and cameras.
Is there a way That I can re-configure the Qolsys panel from the old provider to Telus.
Please advise.
Thanks

Only if your master control is an IQ4 and your remote wireless panels are the QW9104-840 then most likely yes! In order to be compatible, the IQ Remote must be a part number QW9104-840. The following instructions are copied from a previous post...
After correctly connecting power and following the instructions for IQ Panel 2 connecting you’ll likely find that your remote won’t connect to the IQ Panel 4, so here’s what I did to resolve the issue. You will need to access “Installer” mode
- In the WIFI “Advanced” menu turn off “Band Steering” after you enter your WIFI credentials and set WIFI to 2.4 GHz only.
- After you select the “IQ Remote Devices” select “TEST” button on the IQ Panel 4, then select “TEST” on the IQ 2 Remote.
- After “TEST” has run the devices are ready to “PAIR” so select “PAIR” on the IQ Panel 4 and then select “PAIR” on the IQ 2 Remote.
- They will start to synchronize and the IQ 2 Remote will start to download a patch to bring it up to the latest software (v 4.3 in my case) issue.
- It will take some time (about 15 minutes in my case) but the IQ 2 Remote will finally power off and then back on again, and when it stops rebooting, it will be connected (paired) with the IQ Panel 4
- In the WIFI “Advanced” menu on the IQ 2 Remote, turn off “Band Steering” and select 2.4 GHz, then return to the main menu, you are done with pairing!
- You can the change the name(s) for your remote(s) using the IQ Panel 4 in “Installer” mode.
