Pairing a 2GIG SP1 with the 2GIG GC3e

In this video, Jarrett from Alarm Grid shows you how to pair a 2GIG SP1 Touchscreen Keypad with a 2GIG GC3e Security System. The 2GIG SP1 allows you to perform security and automation functions from a second on-site location besides the primary GC3e Alarm Panel. Many users will install a 2GIG SP1 by a garage door or a back door so that they can conveniently arm, disarm, and bypass sensors as they come and go. Another popular location for a 2GIG SP1 Keypad is in a master bedroom so that users can perform smart scenes from a convenient location. The SP1 is also useful for triggering emergency panic alarms in distress situations.

One notable thing about the 2GIG SP1 is that it will mimic the GC3e main screen almost perfectly once it has been paired. You can use the 2GIG SP1 Keypad to control multiple smart area partitions, as long as you have a valid code for the partition you want to control. You will assign the 2GIG SP1 to a partition as part of its programming process. However, this only determines which partition will display a trouble condition that directly affects the SP1, such as an AC loss condition where its transformer becomes unplugged.

The 2GIG SP1 is truly a very complete alarm system keypad. It offers more functionality than the 2GIG SP2, which can only be used to perform security functions, like arming and disarming. The SP1 can do everything that the SP2 can, and it also adds smart home automation capabilities. Additionally, only the SP1 shows the date and time and a five-day weather forecast. One other limitation of the 2GIG SP2 is that it can only control the partition that it has been assigned. The 2GIG SP1 can control any partition as long as you have a valid code.
