Can this be used with an existing wireless alarm system? I was told my alarm.com system would support any z-wave devices and was wondering if this wou

Yes that should work fine as long as you can enroll into the z-wave network.
1836872
Yes, I installed it as part of an existing z-wave compatible alarm system, it immediately signed into the z-wave network and worked flawlessly.

According to Alarm.com site the other devices they support are Z-Wave so this should work as well. Z-Wave is pretty universal

It does show up at alarm.com in combination with my Panel. So if your panel supports zwave and alarm.com, then it probably works.

Yes, it can. This was my first install and I eventually figured it out. Not real intuitive but not impossible. If you have any experience with alarm systems then you will have no problem.

Yes, as long as you have a certified z-wave gateway such as a Raspberry Pi B+. My company utilizes all z-wave products for all of our clients that have second and third homes that want this extra security with HVAC, Water, Electric, Garage Doors, Fireplaces, Lighting and so on.

I don't think it should affect the Z-Wave...Make sure the path to the Z-Wave is unobstructed...I wanted one installed in my upstairs as well as downstairs..Upstairs wouldn't work...Downstairs worked like a charm..Signal couldn't get through walls, floor, etc...:-(

Technically it should as they are both z-wave and should be universal products. However, some items sold have a pre-set manufacture code and you would have to reset this to enable it to work. Also, if you bought this through an alarm or home automation company that did the complete install, you might run into a problem with the same pre-programming (ie Time Warner home automation buys a certain radio controller that is put into their z wave products which keeps a customer from only buying products from them but you can just change out the radio module on back). However with all that said, it is a great product and if it doesn't work Amazon is great at excepting returns, especially if you are prime. Hope this helps and good luck!

Yes. Www.z-wave.com has a lot of info. If you ever want to add alarm.com so you can control from outside the home I can set you up on a cheap plan with no contract.

It can be if you add a controller or controller software that can use the internet. I currently control my GE Z-wave devices by using HomeSeer HS2 software running on a PC. I use my iPhone to turn lights and my home security system on or off.

Hello, I'm not sure what your asking , your question is not very clear. Verizon FIOS is internet. What are you trying to do with the 2 gig alarm products? Zwave function is similar to blutooth, only its compantible with z-wave alarm products such as, z-wave door locks, z-wave thermostats etc..

sure. using a mobile app to control your z-wave system. its not a super impressive alarm. its pretty loud but not jump out of your skin loud.

Probably. It depends on the device. It will work with most Z Wave and Zigbee based devices. Wink supports these too and some additional types of wireless things that are not supported by ST.

Don't know- it works great with my Front point system, witch uses Alarm.com as and interface. If LiveWatch uses Alarm.com as well, then I would be sure that it would work. ANy kind of Z-wave system should work, but you never know.

WINK uses z-wave to communicate with its devices. Z-wave is a non-manufacturer specific technology, so the question isn't "Does it work with WINK?", but rather "Does WINK work with it?" That is to say, WINK may not have gotten around to building out the support for it yet, but the alarm does have the ability to communicate when they do. Do a search on the WINK site to see if it is a device that can be added. If it can't at the moment, it probably will be in time. I have this for my SmartThings Hub, and it works perfectly. So do my WINK-branded z-wave door locks. Hopefully that answers your question. WINK uses z-wave to communicate with its devices.

Unfortunately it will not. The problem is that myQ lacks any kind of zwave standard. Its a proprietary protocol. The only mechanisms that support myQ is their app and alarm.com (due to their partnership. I personally have alarm.com. I had some confusion with my security vendor as they wanted to charge me $300 for this. I found out I could just set it up myself. The setup is done completely through alarm.com. I simply press the myQ button on the garage door opener and the gateway when prompted online and that is it. Just wanted to give you an idea that it really doesn't use zwave standards. If you go for this, you will have to use a separate app unfortunately. Unfortunately it will not. The problem is that myQ lacks any kind of zwave standard. Its a proprietary protocol.

It will work with any Alarm.com based system. Vivint is one of those systems so it will work just fine.

I am unaware of capabilities to do so. It simply works on z-wave tech to deliver a chime at the main unit. The only drawback I have is that the chime is not very loud an can easily be missed if other sound is present in the home

Yes. Per the specs found on another site: "Repeats Z-Wave commands to other devices."

Yes, you have to enable z-wave under services and add the lock as a device. Once you do that, call up your service provider like Monitronics or ADT and have them enable it on Alarm.com. I did that and it works flawlessly from my smart phone.
