The VISTA H Series also offers comprehensive security coverage, with advanced control panels capable of monitoring multiple zones (wired and wireless). Systems come with programming keypads and support services like Total Connect 2.0 (subscription-based) for remote management and alerts. Additionally, the VISTA H Series is equipped with backup batteries and power transformers to maintain operation during power outages.
Benefits of the VISTA H Series include:

- Flexible Installation and Expansion: Hybrid technology and broad compatibility allow users to use existing wired sensors or add wireless devices without replacing the entire system.
- Remote Monitoring and Control: Allows automatic arming/disarming, receiving notifications anywhere via an app, aiding in convenient and proactive home security management.
- Subscription Services: Although some features require subscription (e.g., Total Connect 2.0), these provide professional monitoring and enhanced cloud-based services.
The first product released in the VISTA H Series is the First Alert® H3 Security Panel, available later this month. The VISTA H Series will be available in the U.S. and Canada through ADI Distribution, a Resideo company. The system's compatibility with components of Resideo's ProSeries Platform, including PRO6 Sensors, and its ability to integrate with the First Alert VX Video Series, further expand its capabilities.
In the coming months, Resideo will add more options and features to the VISTA H Series, ensuring that it remains a cutting-edge security solution for homes and small businesses. The VISTA H Series shares ProSeries peripherals and sensors, including the First Alert indoor and outdoor cameras, and can reduce installation time and labor costs due to its ability to integrate with the latest technology.
Ryan Park, the Senior Product Director of Safety and Security at Resideo, has been instrumental in the development of the VISTA H Series. The VISTA H Series does not appear to be directly related to the illegal usage of cell jammers, as discussed in subsequent paragraphs.
