Disabling Chime on a Qolsys IQ Panel 2

In this video, Jarrett demonstrates how to disable the Chime for an IQ Panel 2. Normally, any zone where the chime is enabled will have the system produce a Chime if the function is activated. By disabling the Chime option, the system will not produce a Chime tone, even if a Chime zone is activated.

The Qolsys has a menu for disabling sensor Chimes and muting the system. If you only want to disable the Chime for certain sensors, then you should individually configure the option for each zone. But if you want to turn-off chimes altogether, then that is possible as well. You can also adjust voice annunciations as needed. Please note that you have the option of setting the type of chime for any particular system zone.

If you want to disable all Chimes for the system, you will need to provide the Installer Code to access the Advanced Settings Menu. From there, there is a Sounders menu where system Chimes can be turned on or off. If you turn Chimes from that menu, then the system will no longer produce Chimes when programmed sensors are faulted. Keep in mind that Voice Annunciations will still be produced as normal.

If you want to configure the Chime settings for a unique sensor, you must access Sensor Programming. Again, this is found within the Advanced Settings Menu. You will be able to find all the sensors within the Security Sensors option. If you select Edit Sensor, you will see all the sensors enrolled with the system. You can then press the pencil icon next to a zone to edit that zone's sensors. If you se the Chime Type to None, then the system will no longer produce a Chime when that sensor is activated. Make sure to save the changes when finished. This will not affect the Chime settings for any other system zones.
