ADT - the 'gift that keeps on giving! Today's subject: Saved clips that disappear for unknown reasons - changing the password doesn't help, leading me to believe this is an 'inside job'. Domestic disturbance outdoors this morning at around 0330 - female drove away. System automatically saved the clips from multiple cameras. Just checked the system (1000) and the saved clips are GONE! Not the first time. Had I not been up I probably would have not known about it. Can't fathom everything else I've probably missed.

[@dottiec7943]

A mysterious Poppins I know you got to have one camera watching the other camera also put reflector tape behind these cameras because they're using laser gun to turn off your cameras And also it could be scarier that could be using a rake key and those things open any lock. Also ladies get gorilla tape you can pile up the gorilla tape on your inside locks you know when you turn the key turn the knob gorilla tape is King. You know it's the the lock is permanently closed if you could just put one finger up and if you feel it it's stuck that's good you just unstick it every it'll last for a couple of days 3 days use the heavy black tape

I have glass break sensors which went off last night as I was driving a screw into my wall to hang a mirror… I also shutdown my internet at night and the control panel peeps and the light stays on on the panel until the internet kicks back on.. . which is annoying because you cannot turn off this light.

Good presentation but I would have liked to see what you do with the alarm when you leave the house vs. alarming and staying in at night. Also what actions you need to do to when coming home and turning off the alarm. Lastly, if the alarm is activated by accident...what procedures you need to do.

I install these Command systems and I can say it’s really come along in function and speed (4g is a big part of the speed) The app does about anything you can want it to and more, most customers get a doorbell cam and maybe a few outdoor cameras, the cameras are all 1080p and pull up fast if installed properly. If you want the cameras to be used to thier full potential PLEASE have time and a laptop ready for the installer to demo these camera functions.

[@rickhebert3370]

Let’s talk ADT-- I got ADT back in December of 2020 following a string of vehicle breakins in my subdivision. Upon installing ADT the workers did a test of my cable capabilities and told me that I could easily handle 2 cameras in the back of my house pointed at the carport. At this time they also tried real hard to sell me on doorbell cameras and window sensors but I declined because it was an unnecessary expense. They quickly had me sign a 3 year contract (making it sound as if this was for my protection, not theirs). And never giving me a copy of my contract reason being “it’s digital, not paper”. Within a month I notice that the cameras were only working maybe 1/4 of the time. During this time my truck got broken into and it wasn’t even caught on camera. They kept coming out but told me I needed to get my WiFi people out here. By the time I got solid answers from AT&T and ADT that I need fiber optics verses the ancient underground cables my subdivision had - my 6 month trial period with which I could cancel ADT was over (ADT never told me about a 6 month trial period when installing). Moving forward to June 2022 I’m paying 61.00 a month for ADT (which is pretty much worthless). Stuck in this contract until 12/23. Plus I was notified this past week that my bill will increase by 5.00 a month starting in July.

Not all it seems because it fills up the screen on the phone fast an it's so bundle up that you have to go through it and sypher through it. Some when you look at the video you can hear work being done and voices but shows nothing of who is doing it. Sometimes looks like the video is on a loop

[@herway6653]

Thank you for the informative video! Does this system still have one of those main control panels that require a physical key to unlock in a closet? Or does the touchscreen panel just contain everything?

[@blazindaz]

Touch panel controls everything. The one in the closet is for a wired system that can be integrated into ADT not recommended though.

[@prairiedoggy1]

My concern would be: how long will this system be supported? ADT has gone through several versions, and each time the existing system is declared obsolete. (ADT/SmartThings, for example.) At that point, your existing ADT system is junk. I just had to trash $500.00 of equipment that I bought a year ago. Update 10/21: I bought a Ring system and am very pleased with it. You can start or stop monitoring any time you want, and monitoring is about $10.00 per month, if you choose to use it. Also, Ring supports my other smart devices like smoke detectors, so I don’t need a separate hub for them.

How does the adt alarms knows when you have have a power loss in your home? For example mine said AC power loss

[@bmwracer401]

If the power goes out in your house the backup battery system would be engaged. This prompts your system to send you an alert of a power failure. Being up to date with what is going on with your system at all times is something Adt does very well. For any technical issues you can always call in and get further assistance!

[@frankbrown1611]

Because there is a transformer plugged into an outlet once their is no power going through the transformer it shows on the panel as Ac lost

[@timgiraldin6097]

When I upgraded the old ADT system to this one they disconnected the old chime inside the house, How can I re hook up a chime inside, I have a very large house and relying on just my cell phone is not practical

[@TheBreakdownWithLuke]

The control panel should do that for you. I would call ADT for help.

[@frankbrown1611]

If the house is too big where u can’t hear the alarm when it’s going off we can offer a siren and mount it anywhere u like.

[@acobb8136]

Great video!!

[@johnjayfrandsen]

You do NOT need the internet to use Command from ADT. You ONLY need high speed internet for the use of video on the system. ALL the security & home automation can be used without internet.

[@RubberMasks]

If I were to request another command panel for my master bedroom does ADT charge u for that?

[@TheBreakdownWithLuke]

When I tried there was a cost and they only installed that tablet like one. Only one main command panel per home. The rest of the terminals will be tablets.

[@rodrickthompson2799]

If you been with them long enough they could waive the fee as a long time customer

[@zoesherwin3243]

What is like to purchase adt security I’ve had global simple and normal security systems for my home

[@daphnejohnson6117]

Very good video. Do you know if the the main command control panel and the secondary panel you demonstrated in your 2020 video is the same panels ADT is selling today (2024)? I definitely do not like the gap between the wall and the back of the panel. The secondary panel on the ADT website only shows the front view and you cannot see the beveled corners of back. That is, you cannot tell if the panel protrudes from the wall.

[@aaliyahbrown1643]

Would nice to see your Zones on app

[@joelsmith4257]

My ADT doorbell doesn't chime indoors. how to I reset the chime?

[@Lowrider200088]

Can I load my own screensaver images (or download from ADT) for this control panel?

[@TheBreakdownWithLuke]

Not that I know of.

[@marvinnicasioa]

Does the panel always stay on ? Can’t figure it out

[@sweedee3]

Thank you so much for this video 🙂

[@ClasssicAri]

Got mine installed today. The screen is way smaller than the one you have for some reason.

[@SalvagedSinner]

You have the 5" command panel. It's sold by "authorized dealers" of ADT.

[@tbeautifulmelodies9820]

Will the system work with wifi connection I only have hotspot

[@1elkhills]

Thank you for posting.

[@carriefagan8660]

how kind of battery you need

[@lorrainesucconnino6584]

I have the new ADT system at first the outside camera we show you the video if someone has come through your yard on replay but now it just shows you live backyard. And delay in notification when the the garage door opens and close?? And I need a booster for the garage to have a camera on the other side of the garage showing the large door it cost a hundred and some dollars for the booster but on Amazon that same boosters same code number is much less?? A technician said they would return because it was not working for them either all that work fine but then something went wrong?? I don't know what to push to see replays on the outside camera I have front door doorbell works fine just had to keep charging it the only feature I don't like is that you can take the doorbell off I wish it was permanently fixed into the wall and Electric none remove and I am on someone else's Wi-Fi even though I got a nother Google account they can see all of my account and everything that I have searched for it comes on their phone I don't know why is that??? I wish I could get a represent to come to my home and explain and fix that🙏 and I was told if I was away from home I could take my key frob and turn my system on without going through my phone?? Sorry everyone I do have the questions going on🤗 questions

[@donnabeatty8487]

I changed my battery but my system is saying base cover tamper how do I clear it

[@johnesraelo4614]

good informative video, thank you. here is a question; I have moved to a fully protected house, with the newest and greatest tools from ADT. I have 2 cats in the house, and I was not home last night when I received a call from ADT and the police officers at the house. the funny part is that I had set the alarm to STAY and do not understand why the living room sensors got activated when the cats were running around about midnight. any information would be appreciated. thx

[@theman-lk6jr]

ADT Technician here with plenty of experience with this system. You may need a technician to come out and check the programming on those motion detectors, IF you know for sure that the motion detectors caused the alarm. You, as the customer, are unable to change the way the motion detectors are programmed. Only technicians have access to the online programming tools that would be able to investigate your incident.

[@rodrickthompson2799]

It might have been a weight issue with the 🐈 s ! Or cats moving around. We leave the dog a small shitzu on armed away all the time but he don't move around much

[@jahlenpinelo5922]

the removable ones dock is a charger? mine wont charge and ADT wont help

[@TheBreakdownWithLuke]

Yes but apparently older models had a charging issue keep pushing ADT.

[@olegirina80]

yes is a charger and call the 1 8xx number they will help

[@MorbidGod391]

If you have the QSP, you should be able to get service. Check your bill to see your plan and call back. If they still won’t help, ask for a manager.

[@TetsuoTommyGun]

Do both panels sounds off when doors open? Or just one of them.

[@darrylwilliams6555]

This question is the one I have as well

[@michaeloliver6745]

both

[@rick467]

I can't figure out how to DISARM the system silently. Sucks to hear that loud System Disarmed blaring early in the morning. Any assistance from the gallery would be appreciated.

[@TheBreakdownWithLuke]

You can I. The app but not the panel sadly.

[@rick467]

@@TheBreakdownWithLuke I have the app. I still can't find that function. 😪

[@frankbrown1611]

@@rick467 are you talking about the beeping noise when arming away unfortunately there is no way to not hear that but u can lower the volume to not hear it to loud.

[@srbinbwe]

Open the box and remove the speakers, or if you are lazy put superglue in the speaker hole.
