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. ...
Sorry, the software release patch is 4.2, NOT 4.3...
Thank you for the details.
However, I just have one panel P/N - QS9208-5208-124
not sure how to proceed in that case.
I was unable to Google locate a panel QS9208-5208-124 but discovered QS9207-5208-124 which is a Qolsys panel 2/2+ which is manufacturer discontinued but the installation manual for it is at the Qolsys site. It appears that the master panel you have has similar technical specifications as the IQ4 master panel I have, part # IQP4020-TEL, but you would only know for sure if you could get it to connect via bluetooth to your TELUS modem then to their (TELUS) alarm control centre. To do that you'd need to get TELUS to try to connect using your existing control panel so a TELUS employee would have to be at your home to attempt this. If that didn't work then likely you'll be buying the TELUS IQ Panel 4. Unfortunately when moving to another alarm provider your equipment must be compatible or like me, you'll experience "sticker shock" and some other issues, likely because of employee unfamiliarity with your equipment vs the TELUS supplied/supported parts.
