Panel Compatibility Guide for Security Installers

If you're a security dealer or installer, the first question you ask about any new sensor is: will it work with my panels? Frequency, encryption, and supervision requirements vary across manufacturers, and wiring the wrong device into a job costs time, reputation, and callbacks.

This guide covers every Versa Wireless sensor and which panels it's compatible with — so you can spec the right device before you leave the shop.

Quick Reference: Versa Sensors by Frequency

LAMP-ZW2	Z-Wave 800 LR	2GIG Edge, Qolsys IQ Hub, SmartThings, Hubitat, Home Assistant, Ring Alarm Pro

Qolsys IQ Panel 4 and IQ Panel 2+

Qolsys panels run on 319.5 MHz for their native sensor ecosystem. All three Versa 319.5 MHz sensors — the MINI-319, SHOCK-319, and PIR-319 — drop directly into Qolsys IQ Panel 4 and IQ Panel 2+ installations without translator modules or special programming.

They program as standard supervised zones — perimeter contact for the MINI-319, perimeter contact + shock for the SHOCK-319, and interior motion for the PIR-319. No custom device types, no workarounds.

The IQ Panel 4 also supports a PowerG transceiver module and a 345 MHz daughtercard, which means a single panel can run multiple frequencies. If you're on a mixed install, the PIR-DUAL covers both 319.5 MHz and 345 MHz in one SKU — set the DIP switch before installation and it talks to whichever receiver is in the panel.

Versa sensors for Qolsys:

MINI-319 — door/window contact, 319.5 MHz
SHOCK-319 — shock + door/window contact, 319.5 MHz
PIR-319 — PIR motion detector, 319.5 MHz
PIR-DUAL — PIR motion detector, 319.5 or 345 MHz

2GIG Edge, GC3, and GC2

2GIG panels run on 345 MHz. The Versa MINI-345 is a direct-fit door and window contact for 2GIG GC2, GC3, and Edge installations — no translator, no module, programs as a standard supervised perimeter zone.

The 2GIG Edge is 2GIG's current flagship, and it's increasingly the default panel for new residential and MDU installs. If you're stocking sensors for Edge jobs, the MINI-345 is the contact and the PIR-DUAL (set to 345 MHz) is the motion detector.

One thing worth noting for MDU installers: the MINI-345's ultra-low-profile design — 2.2" × 1" × 0.25" — sits nearly flush on door and window frames. In multi-unit properties where aesthetics matter, it's a cleaner install than bulkier OEM alternatives.

The LAMP-ZW2 Z-Wave 800 dimmer plug is also compatible with 2GIG Edge's Z-Wave radio, pairing via SmartStart for tool-free commissioning.

Versa sensors for 2GIG:

MINI-345 — door/window contact, 345 MHz
PIR-DUAL — PIR motion detector, 345 MHz mode
LAMP-ZW2 — Z-Wave 800 plug-in dimmer, 2GIG Edge compatible

Honeywell VISTA and Resideo PROA7

Honeywell VISTA series panels and Resideo's PROA7 platform both run on 345 MHz using the 5800-series wireless format. The Versa MINI-345 is compatible with 5800-series receivers — it programs as a standard supervised contact zone on VISTA 10P, 15P, 20P, and PROA7 installations.

345 MHz is the most widely deployed residential alarm frequency in North America. If your install base skews toward Honeywell and Resideo, the MINI-345 and PIR-DUAL are your standard Versa SKUs.

Versa sensors for Honeywell/Resideo:

MINI-345 — door/window contact, 345 MHz, 5800-series compatible
PIR-DUAL — PIR motion detector, 345 MHz mode

DSC PowerSeries NEO, Iotega, and Impassa

DSC panels run on 433 MHz. The Versa MINI-433 is a direct-fit door and window contact for DSC PowerSeries NEO (HS2032, HS2064, HS2128), PowerSeries 1832 and 1864, DSC Iotega, and DSC Impassa.

It programs as a standard zone contact and is fully supervised — tamper, supervision, and low battery all report to the panel. At 0.25" deep, it's roughly half the depth of the DSC factory contact (WS4945), which matters on narrow frames and aluminum window profiles where the OEM sensor physically doesn't fit.

Versa sensors for DSC:

MINI-433 — door/window contact, 433 MHz, DSC PowerSeries compatible

Z-Wave Panels and Smart Home Hubs

The LAMP-ZW2 is Versa's Z-Wave 800 Series plug-in dimmer. It's compatible with any Z-Wave certified controller, including:

2GIG Edge — Z-Wave 800 LR radio built in
Qolsys IQ Hub — Z-Wave 800 compatible
SmartThings (Aeotec) — pairs via SmartStart
Hubitat C-8 Pro — full local control, no cloud required
Home Assistant — with a Z-Wave 800 USB stick
Ring Alarm Pro — Z-Wave 800 built in
HomeSeer — Z-Wave certified controller

SmartStart pairing means you scan the DSK QR code on the LAMP-ZW2 box from your hub app and the device pairs automatically — no walking back to the panel for manual inclusion. Every LAMP-ZW2 also acts as a Z-Wave mesh repeater, which matters on large homes and MDU properties where signal coverage is the limiting factor.

A Z-Wave 700 or 800 series hub is required. The LAMP-ZW2 is backward compatible with Z-Wave 700 hubs but achieves full 1,300 ft long-range coverage only with a Z-Wave 800 controller.

One Differentiator Worth Mentioning: Bluefield

Every Versa door/window contact and shock sensor includes patented Bluefield technology — a magnetic field indicator built into the sensor body. The blue LED illuminates when the magnet is within proper range, so you confirm placement at the door before you commit the tape. The green LED flashes on transmission, so you know the sensor is talking to the panel without a trip back to the keypad.

It's a small feature that eliminates a frustrating part of the install process — and it's not on competitor sensors at this price point.
