FAQs

Which Qolsys IQ panel do I have?

Check label and installer paperwork — **IQ Panel 4, IQ Panel 5, IQ Pro, and IQ Hub use different modules, firmware, and screen layouts. IQ Panel 4/5 support PowerG; legacy sensors need matching IQ Card sensors.

Why does my panel show cell failure?

Usually inactive SIM, wrong module SKU, weak RSSI, or antenna fault — run installer cell test and verify Alarm.com/dealer activation.

Can I add sensors myself?

Wireless enrollment requires installer code on the panel for new zones — end users typically cannot add sensors without installer access.

Standard vs encrypted sensors?

PowerG S-Line sensors require IQ Panel or IQ Hub hosts. Legacy 319/345 MHz sensors require the matching IQ Card installed.

Where is official documentation?
How do I test after installation?

Use panel walk test, zone status, and (if monitored) central station test per dealer procedure.

Can I mix PowerG and 319/345 MHz legacy sensors?

PowerG needs IQ Panel/H hub; 319/345 needs IQ Card 319/345 installed transceiver hardware — they do not enroll on the standard 345 MHz receiver alone.
