Can you sign up alarm.com's basic monitoring service, but buy the video camera attachments to do video streaming yourself over the internet?

Yeah but you still gotta pay monthly service on top of that if you add camera to it it will be like $10 more

Good idea, i know this system is used by alarm.com but I am not sure if they let you use video service. I should also check with them

If you're already set up to have Video on your Pulse system, then no. If not... you need to "upgrade" your system, which in our case required having the tech come out and install an indoor camera for $50. ADT didn't have any process for activating video support without having a tech working on the iHub and adding a camera. Annoying, but we ended up putting the indoor camera in the garage, and these outside.

For the initial installation you'll need to plug up the Camera directly to an outlet and your router or modem with a cat 5 cable. Then log into your alarm.com account and to search and set up the cameras Ethernet connection. Once the settings have been programed you can successful unplug the camera and place it around your house. When it powers on it will automatically connect to your internet connection. The setup is easy and alarm.com does a good job of walking you through the process.

Dear John, Thank you for contacting us. If you decide not to get the monitoring service, you will still get all of the alarm features. Nothing is lost. If you have any other questions, let me know. Sincerely, Andrew

You can but why spent the extra cash for wireless? I would not buy any of the alarm.com cameras... Very poor quality.

If you are going through Alarm.com or one of their dealers you should be able to. That's what I have and it works great.

Sure as long as you have a DVR or some type of recording and data to your computer

Yes, you can monitor your videos from your Android Phone. You will need a static IP for this!

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.

Can this camera be used standalone, or must it be part of a security system? I am looking for a camera to watch two pieces of property (two cameras) and alert me via text/email, so I can decide whether to call police or not. Both locations have access to router

Yes. You will need a special DVR card in your computer or a computer based DVR. The DVR card will also need to accept BNC video connection which is common for surveillance camera.

No, the system is good for monitoring, but it has no alert alarm or anything. It is basically plug in and watch through your computer. I bought the system for monitoring my fence line. It allows you to play back video so you can see what went on while you were out. Overall, its a good system for the price.

You can set it up locally to control z-wave, but without a monthly service z-wave devices are only controlled by the keypad. There is no remote access without alarm.com

Brite View offers a PC Utility on their web site that will allow remote monitoring.I just spoke to their Tech Support staff just 10 minutes ago.

You would need a capture card that has the proper video inputs on it for a desktop system or one of those USB connection devices they make for laptops.Honestly, though, if that's really your goal, get an IP camera that lets you log into it with your computer, tablet or smart phone through your internet connection. Otherwise, just hook it up to an old VCR or get one of those security DVRs, which would let you add additional cameras to it.

It is only a sound/motion detector that will e mail you a picture once triggered. If you have wifi you can stream live to your computer or phone and talk to somebody at your front door. I am very satisfied with this product as others requires a monthly payment.
