Agility 4 Wireless Home Alarm

Wireless Indoor and Outdoor CCTV

The eyeWAVE Wireless PIR Camera Detector is battery powered and comes with an integrated camera. The detectors capture a sequence of images using the CCTV camera in the detector. You can set the number of images to capture along with how many frames per second (FPS) you want.

The detectors will store the captured images on the detectors until they are transmitted to iRisco through the alarm control panel. The homeowner is notified when the alarm is activated and they can see the captured evidence through the Risco Cloud website or the iRISCO Smartphone App.

The security camera used in the detectors is a VGA or QVGA camera with an 85° field-of-view. The Passive Infra-red (PIR) coverage is 12 meters in daylight and 10 meters at night. When taking photos the PIR uses a discreet Infra-red flash that means it can get good quality images in total darkness.

Peace of mind wherever you are

The iRISCO Smartphone App gives you full access to control your home alarm, connected detectors and home automation features. The app is available on Android and iOS devices and can be installed on tablets and smartphones.

The home alarm can send a notification to your phone or tablet when movement is detected. It will allow you to see an image taken from the detectors. If it’s a false alarm you can tell the alarm to deactivate so you don’t annoy your neighbours’.

Full Set and Part Set the alarm system

You can arm your security alarm when you go out, go to bed or even all day long to protect your house and loved ones. One of the Agility 4’s advantages is its ability to divide the system into 3 logical partitions. Each one can be managed (set/unset) as a separate part of your property.

This alarm gives you the option of arming or disarming specific partitions or you can arm and disarm all partitions at once. For example, you could arm the upstairs and downstairs partitions when you’re at work and leave the garage unset.

Partitions Example: House (Partition 1), Garage (Partition 2) and Shed (Partition 3), these can be set/unset individually or as a whole.

For the house partition, you can fully arm the system or it can set up to be partially armed. This means that certain detectors are omitted when you perform the part-set.

Home Automation

Burglar Detection and Prevention – The Agility 4 comes with pre-installed scenarios to automatically enhance your home security. The security system can be set up to turn devices on (like the radio, TV or lights) to discourage opportunistic burglars.

• Turning lights on/off at certain times can make the premises seem lived in when you are away on holiday. This often deters burglars from attempting a break in.
• You can control your central heating automatically or through the smartphone app. Please note that a Gas Safe central heating engineer will be required to assist with the installation.

Alarm Communication Options

The Agility 4 now supports 2G, IP, GSM and PSTN through optional modules if required. The home security system can be connected to your phone line using the PSTN module so a monitoring centre or guarding company can be alerted to any activity.

The home alarm supports multiple methods of communication for resiliency and redundancy. If an intruder cuts your phone line then the Agility 4 will use the 2G mobile network to raise the alarm.

Please Note: You can use any mobile network that supports 2G as this is what is used by the GSM module. Where 3 Mobile has dropped support for 2G on their network, you will be unable to use a SIM card from Three Mobile in this alarm. There are plenty of supported mobile networks that we can use as a backup phone line.

What Can the Agility 4 Security System Do?

Two-Way Voice Communication – You can talk into your phone or tablet and your voice is played through speakers on the agility 4 control panel. This will often take the burglar by surprise and they may flee without taking anything. Everything is captured on CCTV using the built-in camera within the detectors. Any footage is transmitted up to Risco Cloud for safe keeping.

Manual Activation – You can combine a range of automatic actions for when you leave the house in the morning, including turning off the lights, arming the system, and managing climate control – all from the touch of a button on your smartphone app.

Scheduled Activation – The alarm can be set to mimic regular activity, like turning the lights on/off. When you are away on vacation, this is a great way to dissuade potential burglars from targeting your home. Nobody wants the stress and embarrassment that follows after a break-in!

Alarm Notifications – Risco have made it really simple for you to customise alarm notifications. They can be triggered in response to certain events, like instant video verification in the case of burglary or turning on the lights when the alarm is activated.

Detector Masking Protection – If a burglar attempts to cover or obscure the detector then a signal is sent to the alarm control panel and you are alerted through the app. You can then decide if the alarm should be activated. You can log in to the Risco Cloud website to view and download the footage to give it to police if required.

Non-Activity Detection – If you are worried about an elderly member of the family, then this feature is a lifesaver. The agility 4 can use the cameras in the detectors to monitor and send an alert if no movement has occurred in a certain time-frame. This allows you to respond quickly in the event that your loved one has a fall or knocks themselves unconscious.

Agility 4 Home Alarm Review

As we have seen the agility 4 alarm is a very capable home alarm system that utilises the best of wireless technology. One of the greatest things we’d like about this alarm is the ease at which we can upgrade anyone who has an older agility three system installed.

With a range of different cameras detectors and accessories there is no question as to why this is one of the best home alarm systems you can have. The alarm allows you to have 32 devices connected to the control panel and is more are required we can simply extend the amount of devices you can have with additional hardware.

Being able to control the alarm is something risk oh have clearly thought about. They understand that the products may be used by people of all ages and abilities. You can control the alarm through the Risco smartphone app, a key fob or by entering in your deactivation code.
