Expanding Qolsys IQ 4 Panel With External Curtain, Smoke, Internal Curtain Sensors.

Expanding Qolsys IQ 4 Panel – SEN’s editor installed a Qolsys IQ 4 panel supplied by BGW Technologies in 2023 and after living with the system for a couple of years, has decided to expand its capabilities.

The existing solution, which is managed by the highly capable Qolsys touchscreen interface and the Alarm.com app, has proved highly reliable, performing flawlessly over the period save for a couple of local network outs entirely unrelated to the security system’s internal operation.

Of note, this Qolsys IQ 4 system with its DSC sensors has generated precisely zero false alarms for the period and some of its key features continue to greatly please from an end user point of view.

These features include its ability to deactivate by geolocation – that reassuring notification bell as you pull up never gets tiring – as well as the holistic nature of its Alarm.com app home screen, which gives the surety of site-wide movement assessment at a glance.

The expansion we’re planning involves installing smoke sensors to 3 levels, along with an internal curtain sensor on the second floor landing and external curtain sensor outside – it’s the external curtain sensor that has the most work to do in this application.

The plan is that this sensor will cover movement at 2 vulnerable door entries, one external gate and one carport door and entry way, all the while ignoring a triffid-like bougainvillea adjacent to line of sight, and handling a north-north-west facing courtyard that bakes on summer afternoons. 

Stand by for our Qolsys IQ 4 upgrade coming soon – you can contact BGW Technologies to find out more about Qolsys IQ 4 and DSC sensors here, find our original Qolsys IQ 4 review here, or read more SEN news here.
