Advanced Features of Alarm.com with Qolsys
Geo-Fencing and Location-Based Automation
Imagine your home preparing itself as you leave or return—without you lifting a finger. That’s exactly what Alarm.com’s geo-fencing feature offers when integrated with a Qolsys system. Geo-fencing uses your smartphone’s GPS to define virtual boundaries. When you cross those boundaries, your system can perform specific actions automatically.
Here are just a few examples of what geo-fencing can do:
-
Auto Arm/Disarm: Forget to arm your system? No problem. It can automatically arm when you leave your home zone and disarm when you return.
-
Smart Lighting: Your lights can turn on when you get close to home, providing both convenience and added security.
-
Thermostat Control: Save energy by setting your HVAC system to economy mode when you leave the area, then return to comfort as you approach.
-
Garage Door Reminders: Receive a prompt if you leave the garage door open after exiting the zone.
These features don’t just boost security—they simplify your daily routine and reduce energy costs. Geo-fencing truly transforms your alarm system into a responsive home manager.
Scenes, Schedules, and Automation
Alarm.com and Qolsys work together to create personalized, automated routines that adapt to your lifestyle. The power lies in the “Scenes” and “Schedules” functions:
Scenes: These are user-defined commands that control multiple devices at once. Some common ones include:
-
Good Morning: Disarm the system, turn on lights, and adjust the thermostat.
-
Good Night: Arm stay mode, lock doors, turn off lights.
-
Leaving Home: Turn off everything and arm the system.
-
Vacation: Enable extra notifications, video clip uploads, and lights-on schedules to simulate occupancy.
Schedules: With schedules, you can automate actions based on time. Set your porch lights to turn on at dusk, adjust thermostat settings during work hours, or ensure doors lock automatically at 10 p.m.
Together, these automation tools offer unmatched customization—making your Qolsys system smarter and more useful every day.
Video Surveillance and Cloud Storage
Adding video to your Qolsys + Alarm.com setup turns it from a monitoring system into a full-fledged surveillance solution. Alarm.com supports a wide range of indoor and outdoor cameras, doorbell cams, and even 2-way audio devices.
Key features of Alarm.com video:
-
Live Streaming: View real-time footage from anywhere using the mobile app.
-
Clip Storage: Record motion-triggered or manual clips and store them securely in the cloud.
-
Smart Video Alerts: Set zones and get notified only when specific areas are breached.
-
Doorbell Integration: Talk to visitors through your phone, even when you’re not home.
And since all footage is stored in the cloud, you never have to worry about SD cards or DVRs. It’s accessible, encrypted, and safely stored for review whenever you need it.
