Does this Camera have the ability to be synced to an alarm system and work through the alarm system app or do I have to use it separately?

No but I have to reload the soft where it changes to Chinese all the time the color is not that good

I am very happy with it. I have two of them. The apps are kind of Chinesey (some syntax things), but the latest updates work great. I'd buy another. The colors may not be vibrant, but is good enough. The wifi range is good too.

It has an output contact that you could use to trigger an external system, but I have not tried it to see how it works.

Yes, the camera must be wireless and ON (transmitting) thanks! Sleuth Electronics LLCPS: to avoid false alarms you MUST turn OFF all electronic devices in the area such as cellphones, radios, TV, etc...because they transmit radio frequencies. It is important that you educate yourself on the proper way to use this item. In your case you may want to hire a PI that knows how to use this type of product.Good day.

Yes. Setup (including adding the extra camera to the system and getting synced to the app) was easy. I did not have the problem that another responder reported; my system works without being hard wired into the router. The app is a bit flaky, but it does allow you to toggle between cameras.

hello wendy, you can setup the alarm recording schedule . For example , if you are at home from 18:00 pm to 7:00 am and don't need alarm recordings, then you configure the camera detection working schedule range 7:00 am to 18:00pm. it means that the camera doesn't record at night. You can configure the 24 hours and also 7 days motion detection range .

I don't use it alone.I have a program called Blue Iris which this camera among others are connected to.I can access to Blue Iris program and look at individual cameras and control them through this program. It has to be a computer that the camera is connected to.Then you can access that program from the web and I have an app for blue Iris that I can control, listed to the cameras that have audio etc, from my smart phone or tablet - android both. but it also works on Iphone

No .. You have to use cell. This is not usable without alarm.com and it's app.

No the information that's sold with your alarm system is all you get. The security company's purposely don't give you any information. So you have to talk it a authorized installer. Return it and pay some one to install it

The camera is powered by a standard outlet. I am not sure if the camera can be triggered on by motion detection. We use it for a continuous live feed. It should work installed behind a glass window. You just might need to make sure to keep the glass clean for a clear image.

I don't think they work with anything but iOS. I own about 9 of these in all iterations (1st version, 2nd version, the one with night vision). They are okay... I also have tried "Foscam" which wa PC compatible, had 2 way speakers/microphones, but it was SO complicated to setup. And I have a few D-link cameras (also PC compatible, but I can't quite figure out interface to save motion alarms... It just texts me saying "motion detected" over and over). I use these IZon cameras as nanny cams and to monitor vacation homes. They're not 100%, but some UI changes have made life easier with them. For example, you can set all the cameras on one wifi network to send push notifications or turn them off (used to have to individually setup each camera). INSANE as it sounds, if I want to save a record, I just record it with my cellphone. Weird, but it works. A few years ago, they did more firmware updates and I had hope they were creating a subscription based 24/7 cloud based recording paradigm.... I don't think that is on the docket for this company anymore though.

I'm only using it as a camera connected to DVR. I have not used any other features that may be on the camera. I am unaware that it has motion detection built in. Regards

It has to be a surveillance camera, but I would say it probably works with most. Currently using Lorex cameras and works great

the camera has a smoke detector which you can setup with your alarm system...

I only have mine taking snap shot alarms. I'd call FOSCAM to see how you record the output. It would probably take a dedicated computer with LOTS of memory.

Yes, the Camera has motion detection built in. Works well with the ones I have. Set them up thru Nexia to send you a text every time the built in PIR is triggered.

Yes, you can get both, and also motion detection. The motion detection isn't perfect but 95% works. (it saves files of 5 minutes) Sometimes u get it recoring for a very little thing moving (an insect) and sometimes (few times) it starts "late" (when movement was already started earlier). Anyway, in my case, im very happy with the camera.

My experience with this is you have to use a 3rd party company, like alarm.com. They provide the app you download.

Others have answered your question..We installed the V721W model camera which setup is slightly different and this is the newer model camera..Still very easy to setup and use with the Alarm.com system..Hope this helps..Ken
