IGSMV / IGSMVCN Installation and Setup Guide
ULC
System Features
Basic features of the IGSMV include:
Remote Services allow the end user to access their security system from their computer
via a website. Availability of this service is controlled by the dealer via the web-based
programming tool on the AlarmNet Direct website. Once enabled, remote access can be
programmed via web or 7720P programming tool.
Supports dynamic or static IP addressing, and installs behind firewalls without
compromising network security.
Quick connection to compatible Honeywell series control panels
Simple programming using a 7720P programming tool
Reports fire, burg, and status messages via the Internet
Reports messages via AlarmNet-G as backup to Internet reporting
Allows uploading and downloading of control panel data over the Internet.
Supports remote control of alarm systems via Remote Services feature.
Two-way voice capability
About AlarmNet-i Internet Application
AlarmNet-i is a fully encrypted, secure method of delivering alarm messages from a
protected premise to an AlarmNet equipped central station. An Internet Communicator
Module transmits status, supervisory, and alarm messages to the AlarmNet Control Center
using a broadband Internet connection.
The AlarmNet Control Center identifies, validates, and forwards the messages to the
appropriate AlarmNet central station. AlarmNet-i has an unlimited account capacity.
Encryption
The IGSMV supports private key encryption. Private Key encryption means that both the
sender and the receiver know the KEY used to encrypt the data. Each device produced by
Honeywell is loaded with a globally unique identifier called a MAC number, and a large
random number or KEY. This KEY and MAC number are also stored in the AlarmNet
servers. When a device contacts AlarmNet, it sends the MAC number in the clear followed
by the message that is encrypted using the KEY data. The server looks up its copy of the
KEY based on the MAC number and uses that KEY to decrypt the message.
The IGSMV uses 256 bit AES (Rijndael) encryption (which is required for certain
government installations). The AlarmNet-i AES Encryption Software Module Version 1.0
contained in the Honeywell products has NIST approval. Listings for this approval can be
found at

Remote Services
Honeywell now offers a new series of web based services that provides consumers with the
ability to communicate with their security system remotely in a number of ways. These new
web services will allow users to:
Access their security system from a computer via a website (Remote Access feature)
Receive email and text message notifications of system events (Multi-Mode feature)
Perform system functions and receive confirmations using text messages (SMS feature)

The IGSMVs' Internet channel has been evaluated for active communication and Level A3
channel security for burglary. The GSM Cellular channel is employed for supplemental use;
it may be used in conjunction with a listed DACT to provide passive communication when
using P2 channel security for burglary (when Internet connection is not available).
