2GIG-GC3-345 Product Description:

The 2GIG GC3-345 is the most capable and robust security & home control system that 2GIG® has ever made. With a 7" color, capacitive touch screen and a full upgrade to the user-interface, homeowners will love how much faster and easier it is to use, and dealers will appreciate how much time they'll save during installation. User interface improvements include single-screen zone programming, elimination of unnecessary or redundant steps, One-Touch Arming, and easy-to-see Status. These features, along with many others, make the GC3-345 customer experience the easiest, most intuitive of any security and control system in the industry.

Smart Home Control has been at the heart of all 2GIG panels since the very beginning. The new 2GIG GC3-345, the first Z-Wave Plus certified panel, makes working with smart home devices simpler than ever before. Programming new smart home devices is a snap with clear, step-by-step menus, saving time and money on every install. The security and automation chips have been built with a modular design, allowing for incorporation of other emerging solutions to stay current in the ever changing world of technology.

There are no shortcuts to excellence, and along the way the 2GIG GC3 design team incorporated multiple "firsts" in the industry. With patents pending on our highly-acclaimed Resonant Audio Chamber, CellSled technology, and the built-in level in the housing unit, GC3-345 is setting the industry standard.
