EyezOn Monitored Device Off-Line Alert

I got an "EyezOn Monitored Device Off-Line Alert" for my EVL4 this morning. Everything seems to be working fine. Then later today I received a "Security Event: Envisalarm FTC" and then 20 minutes later got a "Security Event: Envisalarm FTC Restoral" Normally I see "...

Re: EVL4+Sidekick Review

The cable length is limited due to the surge current used in CAT-M1, and all 5G for that matter, devices. If you need to extend the unit you can extend the antenna up to 30m (100ft) from the Sidekick.
Would decreasing the wire gauge allow EyezOn to offer a longer cable option?

EVL4+Sidekick Review

I recently upgraded my EVL3 to an EVL4 and added the Sidekick cellular backup device. I thought I would give a short review of the Sidekick and what I learned from my installation. I ordered the Sidekick and EVL4 directly from Eyezon. They shipped it to me in the U.S. from Canada, so I think that ac...

Re: EVL4 not connecting with router

Did you perhaps have a static IP set on the EVL and your new router is configured to a different subnet?

What do the green LEDs on the EVL tell you? These provide a pretty good indication as to what is going on.

Re: Sidekick Question

Before I purchase a Sidekick, I would like to see alarm-dude's questions fully answered and get some official assurance from EyezOn that a firmware fault or anomaly in the EVL would not leave me with an unlimited liability for cellular service costs. I trust EyezOn and have been a happy customer for...

Re: Cellular monitoring of EVL for $6 per month

As an alternative to the old Sprint USB modem dongle, an old phone with USB tethering turned on can be used as an LTE USB modem.

Cellular monitoring of EVL for $6 per month

I've been using my EVL3 for many years now. It's worked great, but I've always wanted cellular backup in addition to my cable Internet connection. I've got that working now for only $6 per month. It was actually fairly simple to set up. I added an old router to the LAN port of my existing router. Th...

Re: New Feature Requests

I got it working using a combination of HA-Bridge and envisakit which allows command line commands to poke the TPI.

Re: New Feature Requests

I'm using a Vista 20P panel. Does DscServer also work with Ademco?
