Can a Wi-Fi Camera be added to the Gen 2 Alarm Panel

1 min. readlast update: 12.07.2025

The OSI Gen 2 alarm system and OSI cameras operate independently within the Smart Life app. The camera cannot be added as an accessory to the alarm panel, but it works as a complementary device.

Please note that the Gen 2 display panel is not capable of viewing video — it does not support live video feed or playback.

When the alarm system detects activity through its motion or door sensors, it sends a notification to the user through the app. You can then open the Smart Life app to view the live camera feed and check what’s happening in real time.

In addition, the camera can be configured to record events whenever it detects motion. Both the alarm system and the cameras use the Smart Life app, allowing for seamless control and monitoring from one place.

Example below of the Gen 2 and Cameras that have been added to the Smart Life.
